"Oh come on, don't be a silly baby," Jules said as I walked towards the door, not noticing the breakfast. "Eat, you're too skinny.'' She pulled me over to the table and made me eat and leave something. "Now when you go to this school, you better watch out for the boys. There's some good ones and there's some back ones." she told me, i nodded.

The drive to school wasn't bad, i mean, the parking spot was literal ass but you have to expect that in California. I walked into the school and went to my lock, attempting the combination. Its not fucking working. Fucking asshole. Idiot. Goddamnit.

A blonde opened his locket beside me and I looked at him, amazed at how easily he did it. "Could you help me open my locker, the damn thing won't open.'' I asked him, he smiled and nodded. "Whats the combination? He asked. "Uhm, 12, 33, 32.'' I said a little more quietly. And on the first damn try, he opened it.

"Wait," he said, looking at me more closely. "Are you that chick from the beach?" he asked. Yeah, yeah I was. "Yeah, i didn't mean to piss you off that much.'' I told him, putting my bag in my locker. "Yeah, it's fine." he looked away. "When i first saw you, i was kinda intimidated by ya, i mean, we're the same height." he said awkwardly, i just laughed.

"I get that a lot." i smiled, grabbing my things. "I bet ya do. I'm Johnny by the way," he said. "Johnny Lawrence?" i asked. "Yeah, how'd you know?" he asked. "I was eating at the gas station last night and your Sensei sat down with me, had a long conversation about karate." i said, he smiled and looked away. "Yeah," he said. "I'll see you around?" i said. "Yeah, see ya round."

Okay, i just want to know why the hell Ali broke up with him

"Cmon, everyone knows tall people play basketball." one of my friends, Kate said to me. "I played in New York, i was good." i told her. "Then go, the tryouts are today." she opened the gym doors and pushed me in, leaving me with a group of about seven people, including me.

"Are you lost?" one of the girls asked me. "Tryouts, yall dont need a good point guard?" i asked, dropping my bag on the bleachers. "Yeah, like youre a point guard." she was about 5' 8", i was towering over her. "Alright, lets see what ya got, Yankee." i just smiled in response.

"Ooo, ankles!" i said, breaking the girls ankles and getting my tenth three pointer. They were all tired, i wasnt. "Alright, enough." the coach said. The girls all came to me and patted me on the back. "We should call you Money, all those three's." Anne giggled as we all got our drinks.

"Monroe, i hope you know youre startin' for Varsity." coach looked at me. "Id hope so." i gave him a sarcastic look. "Alright, you guys come back tomorrow." he said, then we all left in a group.

My favorite was obviously Anne, she was the nicest out of all of them. Then Andi, then Cherry, then the rest of them. Anne lived by Daniel in Reseda, she said it was okay over there, but it wasnt as nice as where i was. I think California is fine, its better than New York.

"Bye gang," i said as i got in my car and sped off. Yeah i was in no hurry to get home, so i just started driving everywhere i could. Not everywhere, but i drove around. Just a waste of gas money if you ask me.

Cobra Kai Karate

Okay maybe it wasnt a waste. I shrugged and pulled into the parking lot, getting a nice one this time. The little bell thing rang as i walked in, a singular Johnny Lawrence and John Kreese stood in front of me. "I didnt think you'd take on my offer." Kreese said, i just winked at him.

"Alright, Monroe, show me what ya got." he said, standing back and observing. I duped him out, thinking i was going to kick with my right when i kicked with my left. Funny, im left handed and left legged. It comes in handy sometimes. I did a couple blocks, then got a punch right smack in the nose, making me instantly feel bad.

"Oh shit, are you alright?" i asked as he put a hand over his bleeding nose. Johnny nodded in response. "Youre more of a basketball player than a person that does karate." Kreese said, i turned around in response. "Hitting people in the nose isnt my favorite thing in the world." i told him. "I only did that shit in New York, its different in California."

"You took a long time," Jules said as I entered the house. "Yeah, I did a little tryouts, Karate, California is fun shit." i said, grabbing a glass from the counter. "I also met the boy that lives across from me, he's a real charm." i started to make tea. "Oh i bet he is, those flowy golden locks. He's a real looker." she told me, i nodded.

Yeah, yeah he really is, Jules.
