Last Christmas, your girlfriend Jessica gave you a gym membership as a Christmas present. She hoped you would start working out, but you barely used it. Jessica, however, began to use it.

Over the following months, she became increasingly dedicated to training. Little by little, you watched her body change. Her shoulders grew broader, her arms became thicker and more vascular, and her legs developed enormous muscularity. Her face gradually became more angular, with a noticeably stronger jawline and more intense features.

You saw the transformation happening week after week, but tonight, when she came home from the gym, you finally realized just how far she had come.

You were lying on the couch when Jessica walked through the front door. She was wearing her tight Nike soccer jersey with the number 14 and denim shorts, her long dark-brown hair tied into a high ponytail.

She dropped her gym bag by the door and looked at you with a confident smile.

“You know,” she said, “that gym membership was supposed to be for you.”

Jessica chuckled. “Looks like I got more use out of it.”
