"Raelynn I'm scared." james explained.

"Me too, but I know things will work out. They have to." I reassured him.

"Okay my turn!" Liv said while jumping in my arms

She always gave the best hugs. There was something about her that made you think that everything was going to be okay. I didn't know what I was gonna do without my Liv. She was the sassiest, but nicest person you would ever meet. She was ways there for me when I needed her, especially for relationship advice.

"I'm gonna miss you so much." I told her hugging her tighter.

"Me too! I will call you everyday!" she said letting go.

"And Alexa." I almost started to cry.

Alexa has been my best friend since we were little. Both our moms were best friends their whole lives and decided to get pregnant at the same time. We've been together ever since our Birthday's. Two days apart, I was born June 18th and Alexa June 20th. The first sport our mom's put us in was dance at just 5 years old. We loved our tutus, but never grasped the love for the actual dancing part. Alexa and I both were a little nerdy in middle school. We always got bullied for how we dressed and for what we liked. We both loved wrestling. Every Monday and Friday night we cleared our schedules, not like anything except appointments were on it, for WWE wrestling. Our favorites were the Heartbreak Kid and the Undertaker. From the day we discovered it, at 8 years old, we knew that's what we wanted to do. Alexa and I still love wrestling and have our Monday and Friday night dates for it, but we never joined wrestling. Instead I found karate.

Alexa liked karate but never really got into it like I did. My parents wanted me to know self-defense as the bullying got worse. The bullying never really got to me. I knew that it was because they were not happy with themselves , so they took it out on us. I got to be really good at karate. I made many friends that liked the same things I did. I loved my sensei, his name was sensei Tyler. He was tough, very tough, but we were all like a family. Now I was gonna have to leave that family. I couldn't bare the thought of having to start all over again. I would have no one. There was a karate dojo near our new house that my dad signed me up for called "Cobra Kai". There was another dojo called "Miyagi Do", but I knew it wasn't the place for me just by the pictures. I knew they were gonna be soft on me and I hated that. The only way to learn effectively is by tough love, as long as you can handle it.

"I'm gonna miss you Raelynn!" Alexa said jumping into my arms.

"Me too! Remember to face time me every Monday and Friday night." I reminded her.

"It's not like I have anything else better to do!" she laughed.

"Raelynn it's time to go!" my dad yelled for me

We all had one last group hug. I turned to james and gave him one last kiss. We said our final goodbyes and I hopped in the car. I had this feeling that everything was going to be okay , but I knew it was just Liv that made me feel this way.

"Honey, are you excited?" my mom asked.

"Not at all." I complained

"Raelynn I know your upset, but just please give this new life a chance" my dad asked of me.

"I will." I reassured him.

We had to leave because of his stupid job. He was a cars salesman, the best one in town. One afternoon a few months ago this man called him. His name was Daniel Larusso. He had heard of my dad's work and offered him a spot at his dealership in the Valley. It was a good paying job, better than what he had before, so he couldn't say no. My dad found it funny that Daniels gimick for the comercials were about karate. He supossibly was trained by one of the best senseis ever to live. He was the winner of the All Valley tournament in 1984. It's pretty pathetic that the guy is still living in his childhood. It's great and all that he won, but to carry that over to your professional business is a little weird. That didn't matter though. The only thing that mattered was that I was moving to a hell hole, away from my friends. My family's favorite song "Don't Stop Believing" by Journey came on the radio, interupting my thought.

"Don't stop believing!" my mom sang as she turned up the volume.

I usually would sing along and jam out, but I was lost in my thoughts. My life would never be the same. My eyes slowly started to get heavier and heavier. I drifted off and fell asleep.
