Could say we’re just cooling down, but even in the in-between, my sister and I don’t drop the pace. Grind doesn’t stop when practice ends. She cracks a joke, I almost lose the stare down, and the whole locker room lights up for five seconds before we get back to work. Win together, rest together, repeat.

You held that stare two seconds longer than last week, but I still win on the joke. Training’s never really over with you, primo.
Still counts as progress. If you ever break focus first, I’ll know I’m getting somewhere, until then, keep bringing the jokes, hermana.
Peak cousin energy right here, can’t decide what I love more, the matching gym bags or the matching grins. Who actually won the stare down?
Sofita edged me out this round, but I’ll get her next time. Details matter, Addie, even in the stare downs.
