Today, Dimitri arrived at the gym so early it was still mostly dark out. Admittedly, he'd yet to sleep and so he retreated to his rarely-used office, leaving the front desk to Jessi whenever her shift started.
There was no doubt in his mind that Rose would show to argue about resuming her regular training schedule, it was more a matter of when. The girl was stubborn and it was her normal working day, but even ignoring her burns, Dimitri was too worried about the state of her psyche to let his novice jump back into normal life so quickly.
Ignoring the pile of papers someone had dumped on his desk, Dimitri retrieved a worn paperback from his coat pocket and kicked his feet up to do some light reading while he waited.
The door to the manager's office was open, and Atlas was ready for business.
