Arizona burst into the hospital room, her breath catching as she saw Miguel lying in bed, his eyes open and alert. Her heart skipped a beat as she hurried over to him, her hands trembling as she wrapped him in a tight embrace. Miguel's neck was held rigidly in a brace, and a complex apparatus was fastened around his head, designed to keep his spine immobilized. The sight of him in such a vulnerable state made her grip him even tighter, her voice cracking with emotion.

"Oh— Oh my god," Arizona's voice trembled as she pulled back slightly, trying to steady herself. "S-Sorry. Mig, I'm so happy you're awake."

Miguel's eyes were filled with a mixture of relief and frustration. His face, despite the discomfort of his injuries, was set in a scowl. Carmen, Miguel's mother, noticed the tension and offered a warm, yet strained smile. "I'll leave you two alone," she said gently, her eyes darting between them before she exited the room.

Arizona watched as Carmen left, then turned her full attention back to Miguel. The smile on her face faded as she saw the anger in his eyes. Miguel looked as though he was struggling to contain his frustration.

"Miguel, what's wrong?" Arizona asked, trying to lighten the atmosphere with a nervous laugh.

Miguel's response was a dry, clipped laugh, filled with bitterness. "What's wrong? Arizona, you started a fight with Sam! I expect this from Tory, but you? What's going on with you? You slashed Sam's arm!"

Arizona's face tightened with anger. "How do you know all this? You've been awake for like ten minutes," she retorted, her tone edged with irritation and disbelief.

Miguel's eyes were piercing. "Arizona, I watched you. I saw you drag Sam across the floor and then slash her arm. It wasn't a blur of pain or a haze of confusion; it was clear. I saw it with my own eyes."

Her expression hardened further. "Miguel, she deserved it! She kissed you—she tried to steal you from me again! She's done it before, and I'm not going to let her get away with it. Not now, not ever!"

Miguel's face fell with disappointment. "Arizona, I don't know what's happened to you. I miss the old you. The one who was kind and caring, the one who used to make everyone around her feel safe. This isn't you. Cobra Kai is messing with your head."

Arizona's eyes flashed with anger and bitterness. "No, no... This is all Sam's fault! She's the one who turned me into this. I was just in her shadow, always second-best. I'm not going to let her kiss my boyfriend and get away with it. If anything, Cobra Kai helped me break through that weak girl who was always getting pushed around."
