Just One More Push

“Almost there bro, just one more rep and we can be done for the day.” Inuke tried to motivate me for the pushup.
“I… I… I… think I am done.” I replied. While struggling to separate my face from the floor.
“No worries, you are doing good. Just one more round and be done with it.” inuke kept pushing me.
“Easy for you to say, you are just a figment of my imagination. Not bound the physical limitations. You can easily do 1000 pushups if you want.” I stated the fact.
“Ah!! You make it sound so easy. Do you know what it's like to be in your head? Your thoughts are radioactive. And no matter how hard I try to keep them away you kind of shove it down my throat.” inuke answered.
“Whatever man!! You dont get sick.” I stated another fact.
“I get sick of your whining.”
“You know what I mean. You dont get cold, fever and other nonsense. Must be awesome for you.” I ignored the sarcasm.
“I think you are forgetting that I dont have a physical body. To have any of those problems. Having no body is not awesome but immune to all kinds of sickness is a win.” inuke replied.
“Yeah.!!” I sighed and started wiping my sweat off of my forehead.
“No!!!. We are not quitting now.” inuke shouted at me.
“Who said anything about quitting?” I startled
“You!! You were thinking about it.” Inuke said.
“No, I wasn’t. And why are you reading my thoughts? You are invading my privacy.” I denied the allegation of quitting thoughts.
“No! You were thinking. Enough for today, Let's continue tomorrow. And buying Swiggy premium plans. I forbid you from doing such things.” inuke ordered.
“Forbid? Who are you Jahanpanhaa? Listen, I think I am done for the day and I am not doing any more pushups. And I might as well get the swiggy premium place order for Tandoori Murgh.”
“And while at it, why dont you pick up smoking again? Why is it so hard to understand that what we are doing is for ourselves? For better health. I may not have a body, but we share the same mind. But Lately, your mind is filled with a lot of garbage from work and personal life and to make things worse you are unwell. Remember, The body is the vessel, the mind is the captain. And not on your vessel has holes you are actively trying to poke new ones.” inuke was fuming.
“Alright let's finish it. Do you know why am I agreeing? I prefer the body aches over your kittkitt.” I replied.
“I also dont care as long as the goal is reached. And I think it's a bit too much drama for 3 pushups.”
“Whatever…” I got in the position and lowered my chest. Counted 1 so that inuke could hear it. And collapsed…

Hey Folks,

I know you can tell that I am running the final lap here with the daily writing activity. While daily writing is difficult, I am learning to appreciate things in my life. I will write about this may be in the upcoming posts. Till then take care.
One more thing before I go would like to thank IndiaUnited and BeAwesome community for their love and support. And a big hug to @bhattg and @ryivhnn san for motivating me.
