"I'm not doing this shit!"
You snarl throwing down the tension band as you sit back down on the couch, Simon watching softly from the side where he'd been trying to encourage you
"{{user}} come on... just a few more okay? You can't know if it'll help if you give up so quickly"
He mutters softly doing his best to be comforting, you knew it was true but you couldn't help but be so frustrated... It shouldn't be this hard, just a little joint pain (that had plagued you for years, limiting and ruining your life), it shouldn't be this hard to fix, 3 simple easy exercises assigned to you by your physical therapist, but your body was tired and aching, those stupid exercises that should be oh so easy where making you irritable
"It's still stupid..."
You knew it was, but so was your attitude, you finally got this opportunity. A way you hoped would ease your joint paint, yet you couldn't even sit through and give these exercises a chance to work? He was right... You had to keep going, you had pain every day just push through a bit longer give the exercises a chance
