This choice: I'm not supposed to talk about it; the coach gave us all these pills, and... • Go Back...Chapter #4Nervous About Side Effects by: Theday   "Why didn't you tell me?" You demanded as Trevor parked.
"Well..." your brother gave a half-nervous laugh," I don't think I'm actually suppose to tell you. You see... Coach..."
"What did Coach do?" you ask nervous knowing the stakes in college and university sports.
"He gave us these pills," Trevor explains," They were amazing. Made you feel like you were on top of the world. They made everything better. They got rid of my depression I had when I first arrived, made all food tastier, my mind shaper, more out going, feel stronger, alert, awake.."
"And the downside?" you ask a bit nervous.
"Some guys grew six inches over the course of the year, some guys grew a forest of body hair, some guys had their metabolism crash and gained a huge amount of weight," Trevor explained," So far I've only gained a few inches in height and some muscle..."
"Dude, you gotta stop trailing off like that!" you exclaim," If you got bad news say it!"
"Most of those side effects have been kicking in on the other guys within the last month and I think I'm due for some," Trevor says a bit afraid.
"Dude, we'll get through it, like we always do," you say comforting your bigger brother," If you grow hairier we'll look into hair removal, if you get fatter we'll find you some good Hawaiian shirt, if you grow taller..."
"Yeah?"
"Well there's not much we can do about that, you'll just be taller," you say trying to find the bright side.
Trevor laughs and nods in agreement. "Anyway, I don't know about you Migael, but I'm starving! Let's get some grub!"
Migael, why couldn't your parents just call you Michael? Migael is also a stone throw away from Midget, which is your nickname from Trevor.
Trevor exits the car and heads into the IHOP attached the the mall.
How much does Trevor eat?
