regrets

Y/n got out of her car and grabbed her things and headed inside. Hearing the door open Andy's mother quickly made her way to the door to see Y/n with a trophy in hand. "Oh my goodness! I knew you'd win!" She cooed.
"Where's Andy?" She asked. "Kylers having a victory party" Y/n answered. "Well, aren't you gonna go?" Andy's mother questioned. "Y-yeah totally. I just wanted to change. I feel kinda gross" Y/n replied.

"Alrighty then! You have fun okay? You deserve it! Come back home at a reasonable time!" The woman winked before walking away. Y/n nodded and headed up to her room. She placed the trophy on her desk and changed.

She looked into the mirror straightening up her clothes.
Her eyes moved all around her body before landing on her face. Then she remembered the look on Miyagi-Do's faces. Eli had won but that didn't mean he had saved the dojo. She had taken a part of them away. Chris, Eli, Demetri, Nate, Sam, and her dad. They wouldn't have the luxury of feeling excited about their next practice. They wouldn't get to learn new techniques to protect themselves from people like her.

This was all her fault. Y/n lips trembled. Tears threatened to spill. A ding made her head turn to her bed. Her phone lit up. Y/n picked it up.

Message from Kyler: Yo!! Bring the trophy when you come!! See you 🤘🤘

Y/n replied.

From Y/n: got it.

Y/n put her phone in her pocket, slipped on her shoes, grabbed the trophy from her desk, and headed out.

She began to drive out to Kyler's place. Her car came to a halt when she reached a red light. The face of her distraught sister escaped into her mind. The light turned green and without a thought, she began driving to her house, if she could even call it that anymore.

Y/n reached her house and parked her car. Her stomach turned as she began getting closer to the door. Her hands were clammy. She rang the doorbell.

From the inside, Daniel and Amanda sat at the kitchen table as they drank. Daniel got up "I'll get it" he mumbled and walked to the door. He opened the door and was met with Y/n. Y/n looked at her dad and felt her heart start to race. What was she thinking! Quickly she stepped back.

Daniel grabbed her wrist "honey...no wait." He said. Y/n hesitated and looked at her father. "I'm sorry about everything that I did. It was foolish of me. I should have never treated you how I did. I knew what you were facing and yet I reacted as if I didn't" Daniel apologized.

Y/n couldn't take it anymore. Her eyes burned. She let the tears spill out. "No, I'm sorry dad...it's all my fault. I let my anger distort my way of thinking. I let Cobra Kai ruin me. I thought that if I won I would feel better. But I still feel how I felt from the start. I ruined everything I had with you, Sam, mom, my friends, and Demetri. All because I wanted to be petty. I'm really really sorry." Y/n stated.

Daniel brought her into a hug. Y/n held onto him, scared she would mess everything up again. Repeatedly she apologized. Daniel patted her head and comforted her.
Amanda waited in the kitchen and Daniel hadn't returned. She walked to the front door only to see him hugging Y/n.
"Y/n?" She muttered. Y/n looked up and quickly hugged her mother "I'm sorry...I'm sorry" she repeated. "Oh Honey...I'm sorry" Amanda said and kissed the top of Y/n's head.

Daniel closed the door. The mother and daughter stayed in the same position for a few seconds before they pulled apart. "Where have you been staying?" Amanda asked.
"Andy's place..." Y/n admitted. "Andy? Like Price?" Daniel asked. Y/n nodded slowly "what happened to not trusting him?" Amanda asked. "He was the only person I could think of" Y/n replied. "Whatever, you're back and that's what matters," Daniel said. "I bet you're tired. You can go up to your room and sleep"
