Pride. [ ANTHONY LARUSSO - COBRA KAI]
13 parts Ongoing "Pride will be the death of you."
Jade Keene was an amazing child. She got good grades, did every sport in the book, got every trophy a little girl could get. All to get her parents attention. But, Jade's mother was too busy hooking up with old rich guys to pay attention to either Jade or her older brother Robby and her father was a deadbeat. Until... he opened a karate dojo.
After the big fight at school, Jade was forced to flee the LaRusso household and became homeless. Until her savior, John Kreese, showed up and took her under his wing. Then she became Jade Lawrence
Anthony would never admit this to anyone, not even his sister, but he was alone. Sure, he had people around him, clinging onto him, sitting next to him at the dinner table. But he never truly had anyone. He always got to do whatever he wanted because his parents never paid any attention to him. Everyone called him so lucky for having such strict parents but every night and every birthday candle he would hope that his parents just noticed him. Grounded him. Did something just to show they noticed him.
The only person who did notice him was Jade.
The more karate in his life, the more complicated it was and the more sadness he felt. Then, Anthony decided to do the stupidest thing he could do when he bumped into Jade outside of Gold N Stuff. He asked her to hang out.
