am i making you feel sick? | Cobra Kai | Eli Moskowitz

CHAPTER SIX

                 _

Today was like any other week day for Tessa, going to school and getting tripped, shoved, or a dirty look from no other than Yasmine whenever she was in sight. She never really knew why Yasmine didn't particularly like her, she knew why everyone else did: because Yasmine told them to.

Tessa mostly ignored the situations which was very out of character for her. When she moved schools in February of 8th grade, she kept to herself and didn't speak much at school, in her own words: "changing for the better"

"Aren't you going to eat giggles?" Demetri looked over at Tessa, seeming more down and not her usual energetic personality

"No. Im not really hungry." Tessa replied to him with her head laying on the table on top of her arm, not very amused with the day she's had

"Whats wrong?"

Eli looked over to his right, anytime they were around Tessa she was talking their head off or as the nickname states; giggling. She only acted like this when she wasn't having luck avoiding Yasmine and her trio.

"I just didn't have a fun time getting tripped and laughed at on my way out of history. And my brother's ignoring me, again."

Tessa said as she put her head up, and scratched the back, embarrassed by admitting that.

"Oh. I'm sorry."

Eli replied to the girl feeling bad, he knew she was having more run-ins than usual with Yasmine and her group, and her relationship with her brother was complicated after getting kicked out. Now more than ever.

"It's fine, thats just the way life goes."

"I'd sell an organ to get pushed by Yasmine, look at her!"

Demetri spoke after Tessa, causing her to roll her eyes at that comment, as Eli shook his head also before looking up

"Is it cool if i sit here?"

A boy spoke, Tessa turned around and looked up at the boy

"Ooh, sorry tables really blowing up right now. I can put you on the waitlist, but it's probably next semester at the earliest."

Demetri said in his usual joking manner.

"Okay." The boy started to walk away

"Shut up Demetri! Miguel! Sit, he's joking." Tessa stopped the boy before he could fully walk away

"Oh okay. Hi Tessa."

"You guys know each other?" Demetri asked the two waiting for a response

"Uh yeah, he moved in next to me."

Tessa said, trying to avoid the whole karate thing as of right now, being somewhat embarrassed of it.

"And, we do karate together."

Miguel told the two boys adding on, the boys head's snapped towards Tessa in confusion, probably because of the fact Tessa never told them.

"Karate?" Eli asked Tessa

"Since when did YOU, Tessa Lawrence do karate?? What is this, the 80's?"

Demetri shouted at Tessa maybe a little too loud, as Tessa looked around at the few heads being turned
