"I'm letting you train," Mom says, walking toward the gym.

"Are you serious?" I asked, and Mom nodded.

"Go run a lap," Mom says, and I nod.

I take my lap before heading towards Mom. She's sorting through toys. Mom throws the toys in different directions. Next, she puts something on both hands before turning to me.

"I'm going to attack you, and your job is to use the toys to defend," Mom says, and I nod.

"But, why are you letting me train?" I asked, but she didn't respond.

She tries to punch me, but I dodge. I wait for her to lift her arm, and then I throw a toy at her arm. Mom looks impressed, and then she's kicking and punching. I dodged all the attacks and tried to throw a toy at her, but I couldn't. Eventually, I went down.
