Chapter 2: letters from home

Hours had gone by as Victoria and Daniel did their work. It was sort of peaceful as they didn't talk, the sounds of hammers was the only noise. Victoria smiled as she saw Mr. Miyagi place a tray down.

"Mmm. Very good work you two." He praised the teens

Victoria walked up to Mr. Miyagi looking at the structure.Daniel had disappeared inside of the house

"Daniel-San." Mr. Miyagi called for him

"Yeah. I'll be right there!" He called back

Victoria shrugged as Mr. Miyagi looked over at her.

"How feel?"

"Much better. Thanks." Daniel responded sounding like he was in a rush to do something.

"What are we building out here, anyways?" Victoria asked looking at the structure

"Guest room." Mr. Miyagi answered and Victoria hummed

"Looks nice." She responded

"You expecting company?" Daniel shouted from where he was at

"Refugee." The old man answered

"Refugee?" The two kids asked

"That's great from where?" Daniel sounded like he was distracted

"Fresno." He answered

"Fresno?" The two kids asked again as Daniel walked out of the house

"Miyagi talk to mother last night, too." Mr. Miyagi poured iced tea into three glasses

"And she said I could stay here?" Daniel asked excitedly

"If like." Miyagi responded

"You mean I don't have to go to Fresno?"

"If no want."

Daniel jumped around excitedly, "oh, man, you saved my life! Thanks! Mr. Miyagi, thanks."

"Welcome." He answered and pointed to where he set the tray. "Iced tea."

Victoria grabbed a glass taking a sip as Daniel stumbled over his words, "oh, yeah. Oh, no, wait look. I made this for you it's rosewood."

He handed Mr. Miyagi a wood frame with his medal in it adding, "I thought it'd be nice to show them off."

Victoria let out a small 'wow' as she looked at it. It was beautiful and Mr. Miyagi deserved it.

"Daniel-San, thank you for gift but why show off?"

"Well, you know it says something about you, winning the Medal of Honor and all that." Daniel pointed at the medals

"It says you're brave. It'd be neat to show it off." Victoria added

Miyagi turned to Victoria and pressed his hand against her chest, "this say you brave." He pointed at the medal, "this say you lucky."

He turned to walk into the house, Daniel and Victoria about to follow him when a voice caught their attention.

"Mr. Myaji live here?" A mailman asked

"Miyagi." Victoria corrected

"Mr. Miyagi. Registered letter for you, sir, from Okinawa." He reached out his hand that had the letter

"Okinawa?" Miyagi whispered

Mr. Miyagi signed something for the mailman before he left and Mr. Miyagi put on his glasses and opened the letter. Victoria walked up to him, Daniel walked up to his other side.
