"What is wrong with you, Dawn?" Kadie yells at me and slams my car door as she gets inside. I get inside my car as well and deal with this situation.
"I'm sorry, but I couldn't let her hurt you like that," I tell her.
"She didn't hurt me at all." She said I could not believe that she is lying right now.
"I legit saw her choking you out and you were coughing hard." Now I'm starting to question my sister. I understand that she is upset, but she's acting like nothing bad happened. I'm not going to let that happen. She needs to come to her senses.
"Yeah, she choked me out. But putting someone in a chokehold is normal in wrestling." I sigh after she says this.
"I understand that. But what I have a problem with is that she did not tell you beforehand that she was going to put you in a chokehold. As a trainer, she should know how dangerous that is especially for an untrained young girl." I explain to her.
"Ugh, can you stop treating me like a child? I may be 17, but I'm not a baby. I can handle stuff on my own." She whines, rolling her eyes at me and crossing her arms.
"You just don't understand" I simply state.
"What don't I understand? Why should I be looking up to you when you cowardly quit becoming a spy? You are dressed like someone is going to kill you when there's no killer in sight. And you say, I'm the immature one." She snaps, which takes me aback because I did not do anything to provoke her.
"I don't like the way you're talking to me. I may not be a spy anymore, but I'm still your older sister. Now, I don't mind you wrestling, but I don't want you training with Ms. Take ever again. I mean it!" I tell her, keeping her in check.
"You are overreacting right now!" She says.
"Ms. Take may be a good wrestler, but she's not a good trainer. I know there are better wrestling trainers in the Virginia area." I suggest.
"Honestly, I'm done with this conversation. Let's just go home and forget this day ever happened." She stops talking after this and puts on her headphones to listen to music. She even stopped looking at me.
I wanted to say more to convince her, but I didn't want to add fuel to the fire. I just start the car and we head back home.

We're back home, and Kadie rushes inside the house. I was about to go inside the house when I get a video call notification from Seni. I wonder what she wants because it's a random time for her to call me. This must be important if she decided to video call me or just a simple phone call. Plus, it's always a delight talking to her. So I'm excited to see how my girl and everyone in New York have been up to after my departure. I answer the call. The video call starts, and I see and hear nothing but sirens flaring. The lights are flashing so much that I can barely see Seni or whatever is going on.
