The Boxing Lesson

Lucas's POV

I was looking for some books in my locker when that girl........Maya approaches me for some reason. "Hey....Lucas right?" She says with a confident but sensible look, does that make any sense? "Yah, that's me." I say with a jerk look, I don't know why I did that. "Okay, but before I say this, I just want you to know that this really hurts my pride so don't think I wouldn't be asking you this if I wasn't desperate. I need your help with an English essay. I have to read a classic and write about it, and I have no clue of what to do." She admits, and I'm kind of surprised, I know how hard It must have been for a tuff girl like her to admit that. "Okay, I'll do it but with one condition. I heard you know karate and wrestling and I want you to teach me that. My little brother was robbed the other day and he has been afraid of leaving the house so I want to teach him some defensive techniques. And I might also need them." I say with the same tone that she had. "You need to learn how to fight? Are you sure, look at you." She says. " Trust me, I do. So deal or not?" I ask. "Whatever, meet me at my place at 16:00." She says coming back to sass mode and then she walks away. "Okay..?" I say a bit confused. I look at my watch and then grab my books and run to history class. "Shit, I'm late."

Later that day I arrive at her house at 16:00 after spending the last half hour looking for her address in the yearbook. Because it was very smart to tell a person to go to your house and not tell him where it is. I ring the bell and then she screams "It's opened!" I open the door and I look around and I hear a sound of punches coming from another room so I go to that room and there she is. She's wearing shorts and a white top with her hair in two braids, all covered in sweat and she looks kinda hot. She is wearing a pair of boxing gloves, and punching a red boxing bag with a really concentrated face. I don't think she saw me coming in. "Oh, it's you." She says a bit surprised. "Yah, you asked me to come here remember?" I say. "Yes, I remember. But I thought it was my uncle, never mind. Now take that jacket off if you want me to teach you some stuff." She says still punching the boxing bag. "Okay, but I thought I was helping you with that essay." I say and then she stops punching and looks at me in the eyes and comes closer to me. "Do you want help defending yourself or not?" She says still looking at me in the eyes with an angry look. "Yes, I do." I say looking back at her eyes with a more serious look. Then she steps back and gives me a pair of boxing gloves. I take my jacket off and my sweeter leaving my tank top and I put on the gloves. She looks at me for like two seconds and then looks at the boxing bag to avoid looking at me. "Now try to punch the bag, imagine that it is you're worst enemy." I punch the bag and it doesn't even move. I'm goanna need to work a lot on this.

One hour later, I'm exhausted and all covered in sweat "Now do you want to try wrestling." She says looking a lot energetic whileI'm dying inside. "Give me five minutes." I say. "Fine" She says and then throws me a water bottle. We both sit on the floor. "How thought you all of this?"I ask. "My dad, he was in the army. He died six mouths ago." She says looking really sad. "I'm sorry." I say. "Yah, me too." She says and then a tear comes out of her eye but she immediately cleans it. "My parents are divorced. They have been since I was fourteen ." I say also getting really sad. "I'm sorry." She says looking at me. "That was all my fault." I admit. "Come on, don't say that."She says. "It's true, lets just say that I wasn't the best son ever." I say. "I don't think it's your fault. People make their own decisions, you're parents decided to drift apart, and I don't think you should blame yourself for that."She says with the nicest tone I've heard her do. "Thanks" I say. "Now let's get back to work." She says back with the energetic tone. "Let's go."
