Ophelia~Hawk/Eli Moskowitz

~chapter 5~

The next morning..

Ophelia's pov:

I had woken up to my phone alarm ringing in my ear. Blinded by the sun, Grumbling I sat up on my bed, moving my hair out of my face and snoozing the alarm. Tossing my blankets off of me. I got up to get ready for karate.

I did all my Hygiene things, changing into workout clothes, I'm just going to put my Gi over them. I walked into my room to pack my gym bag. I still had 20 minutes to spare. I reached my phone that was sat on the bed,  so I could text Eli, Demetri, Miguel, and Aisha in our group chat.

                             Losers

Ophelia 'Hey so is everyone coming to karate this morning?'

Eli 'Yea I am, I believe Demetri is too'

Aisha ' I wouldn't miss it'

Miguel ' I always show up loser'

Demetri 'Eli is making me :( '

Eli 'shut up'

Miguel 'lmao'

I shut my phone off, walking into the kitchen grabbing my keys off of the counter and bag from my room. Opening the front door heading off to my car. Once I'm in my car, I check my front mirrors, I look hot today with no makeup. Karate has given me a confidence boost, confidence looks good on me not gonna lie.

I start my car heading off to the dojo.

I make a left turn pulling into the dojo parking lot. When I see the front of the dojo, I was completely taken back. Crowds of people were standing at the dojo doors.

I grab my bag, taking my keys out.
I open my car door, stepping out of the car, swinging it closed. I jog up to the front of the dojo. My eyes hover over the crowd looking for a familiar face. I spot Miguel and Aisha, I push through people to get to them.

"What's going on?" I question them.

"The video went viral" Aisha boasted, I looked around seeing people play the video on their phones. I looked back at Aisha and Miguel. Miguel was just staring at the parking lot. I turned my attention to the parking lot, noticing my dad just got out of his car.

He walked towards the dojo doors unlocking them.

"Looks like we're in business," he remarked, I walked into the dojo taking my shoes off, placing my bag on the floor. Everyone followed my actions. I stepped onto the Mat stretching. Today's gonna be a long day.

My father walked into his office, I was on edge with all the new people. After finishing stretching, I looked around once more. Miguel and Aisha were practicing their jabs waiting for the lesson to begin.
While everyone else was talking, sharing videos, and playing on their phones.

I noticed my father coming out of his office, I turned my attention towards him.

"Ok. Today we begin. " My father shouts, only I'm paying attention, the other students don't hear him.

"Quiet!!" He yells, causing everyone to stop and focus on him. "Face front!!"
Everyone including myself listens.

My father walks by everyone, staring into their souls. I hear some students gulp, causing me to press my lips in a line to conceal my laugh.

"Nice shirt" My father compliments Demetri. Demetri looks down at his shirt.

"Thanks" Demetri replies

"I'm joking, it sucks" My Dad mocked. I fidgeted with my fingers, looking down. It's only going to get worse, my dad's favorite thing is to insult people, toughen them up he always says.
