Jules showed up to the Sports Center for the final Sekai Taikai fight before her dad did. She drove with Miguel and Eli so Miguel and Jules could get some autographing done before the fight. Miguel stayed around for about ten minutes before he left to go change into his gi. Jules decided to sign for a couple more minutes before she would leave too.
"Can you sign it to 'Leilany?'" The little girl—probably no more than 10 asked Jules as she practically bounced on her toes in excitement. Jules smiled at the request and nodded her head as she started to sign. "Is that with an I or a—"
"With a Y." The girl said and Jules nodded, finishing her small note and handing it back to who she assumed was Leilany.
The girl was buzzing as she looked down and smiled at Julianna's writing. She looked back up at Jules, her smile stretching over her whole face. "You're so cool!" Was all she said before she turned and ran to her mom to show her what Jules had written for her.
Julianna smiled at the sight, waving to the mom when she looked up to her from across the room.
"Looks like you've got some fans already."
Jules turned to the voice speaking to her and came face to face with a brunette woman in a pantsuit. She had a handful of papers held close to her chest and a small smile.
"I'm Julia with Icon Branding." The woman said, sticking her hand out for Jules to shake.
And Jules took the hand immediately, smiling back to her. "Julianna with Cobra Kai." Jules said, giggling to herself at her play on words because of their similar names. "Nice to meet you." She hummed as their hands dropped.
Julia nodded. "Likewise. My team represents a select group of athletes for marketing and branding opportunities. We would love to have you as a part of the team." She got straight to the point, handing Jules one of the papers she held close to her.
Julianna's eyebrows raised and she looked down at the paper for just a second before she looked back up to Julia. "Really?" She asked, a shocked laugh leaving her lips as she took the paper out of the woman's hands.
The woman snickered, a teasing look on her face as she gestured around the room. "I mean... You did just win the whole thing. You'd be inspirational to little girls everywhere." Julia said, her voice softer and not as professional toward the end.
Jules looked back to the little girl, Leilany, who was now in the snack like with her mom. She wasn't looking up at the menu, she was staring down at Julianna's autograph. Her thumb gently ran over the fresh ink and her eyes practically sparkled. Jules smiled at the sight, but when she turned back to Julia, she quickly hid it and handed her back the paper.
