"I  learned  that  kata  actually  helps  with  the  ache  on  my  knee."  which  he  kind  of  messed  up  again  after  kicking  silver  in  the  face.  it  was  worth  it,  but  now  he  is  paying  the  consequences.  luckily,  it  seems  there  is  some  quiet  peace  in  the  valley  for  him  to  just  allow  himself  a  moment  and  rest.  "maybe  it  can  help  with  your  back  too.  you  need  to  rest.  heal  up.  as  cool  as  those  tornado  kicks  are,  you  need  to  focus  on  learning  how  to  walk  before  you  learn  how  to  fly  again."

"so.  .  .it's  just  the  two  of  us  now."  her  father  left  with  anthony  and  the  other  kids,  sam  said  she  was  gonna  help  clean  up.  really,  she  just  wanted  a  small  moment  with  robby.  she  thinks  her  dad  knows,  as  he  always  does.  hands  straightening  her  clothes,  a  smile  on  her  lips  as  she  steps  closer  to  robby.  "you  know,  you  can  kiss  me  now."  sam  confesses  out  loud.  she  hopes  he  has  been  thinking  the  same  thing.  god,  it  had  been  so  long  and  they  never  really  had  time  to  just  break  up  or  find  each  other  as  a  couple  before  tragedy  stroke.

"I  don't  really  appreciate  big  tips."  There  is  a  short  pause  as  Shannon  holds  herself  in.  It's  the  end  of  her  shift  so  if  she  does  speak  up,  it  won't  cause  trouble  at  the  diner  but  she  now  knows  better  than  to  pick  a  fight  with  the  man.  Not  that  she  thinks  he  would  hit  a  woman.  But  one  never  know  with  men  like  them.  "I  don't  appreciate  you  handing  me  over  a  bag  of  money  and  offering  me  some  shady  job  and  then  turn  my  son  into  some  kind  of  karate  machine."  Shannon  slides  the  money  back  on  the  table,  taking  only  the  small  change,  out  of  sheer  pride.  she  hates  the  feeling  she  gets  from  being  handed  money  like  that,  like  she  used  to  when  men  came  around  her  house.

“you   don’t   have   to   lie   to   me,   you   know.   i   know   you   are   still   training   at   cobra   kai.“   she   is   surprised   by   her   own   voice.   she   isn’t   dissapointed   or   mad.   though   there   is   a   part   of   her   that   is   upset   that   she   learned   this   information   from   terry   silver   himself.   so   much   to   keep   that   man   away   from   her.   “babe,   i   just   want   to   understand.“   her   hand   reaches   out   for   his   own,   as   she   stands   near   the   new   cobra   kai   dojo   where   she   found   him   walking   out   of.   she   can   still   hear   the   class   inside.   “just   tell   me   why.   or   show   me.“

"I   don't   think   I   will   be   going   to   collage."   not   that   with   his   record   he   has   a   chance   to   enter   to   any   good   one,   really.   his   student   record   might   be   good   with   his   grades   but   the   reports   about   the   school   fights   are   enough   to   make   anyone   look   at   him   and   do   a   double   take.   robby   had   accepted   that.   "I   was   thinking   of   continue   the   internship   at   larusso   auto   and   then.   .   .perhaps   help   mr.   larusso   at   the   dojo."   that   he   knows   he   can   do.   and   robby   thinks   he   is   good   at   it.   teaching   kids,   help   them   with   their   anger   and   channeling   it   into   something   good. @karatetaught ft. johnny.

"i   still   think   that's   way   too   much   meat   for   one   pizza,   johnny."   and   here   he   thought   that   maybe   he   would   rub   off   on   johnny   to   make   the   other   stop   using   that   insane   amount   of   meat   into   one   place.   but   perhaps   some   things   were   hard   to   forget.   and   he   would   never   admit   it   out   loud,   but   he   didn't   entirely   hated   the   meat   pizza,   but   he   is   not   gonna   tell   johnny   that.   "have   you   tried   less?   or   the   one   with   some   green   on   it.   I   promise   you   it   won't   hurt   you." @karatetaught ft. johnny.

"whatever   you   want   to   do,   we   support   you,   you   know   that,   right?   i   know   i   keep   saying   collage   is   important   but   that's   just   because   I   never   went."   and   perhaps   he   had   been   pushing   the   subject   lately.   he   had   not   taken   that   road.   he   had   tried,   not   so   long   ago,   to   try   and   be   a   collage   student   but   by   that   time,   he   already   been   working   for   a   smile   and   never   thought   to   finish   the   entirety   of   the   studies.   a   few   business   classes   was   all   he   needed   but   he   just   wants   sam   to   know   she   can   do   anything   she   wanted   to.   @karatetaught ft. sam.

"personally,  I  think  we  deserve  a  whole  day  of  no  karate,  no  fatal  injuries  and  just  be  teenagers,  drink  up  and  kiss  the  hottest  girl  in  the  room."  a  short  pause  as  jeanny  leans  over,  her  frame  pressed  against  the  counter  looking  over  at  deen  through  the  filled  room  with  other  students.  "i'm  the  hottest  girl  in  the  room,  by  the  way."
