As he felt his back aching, he stood up from his chair to stretch and relax a bit.He stood up from the chair with a grunt of pain.His eyes were blurry as he had been focused on the laptop screen for hours without break.He was pacing up and down the office, throwing his arms in the air as a form of a stretch out exercise.His eyes chanced upon the wall clock, and he couldn't help but look again to satisfy his curiosity.According to the clock, it was already midday, and it was time for his lunch break.He picked up his phone to confirm the time, and it was true.It was then he understood why his whole body was aching and his fingers had gone numb on the keyboard.
