🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹 I'm loving bleeding days soo much rn, and the little flashes where you see Lorena having Feelings for Hawk and not realising are soo funny, especially with Hawks whole tough guy routine! I see that you said only Bobby and Miguel know for sure that Lorena isn't Johnny's daughter, and I just wanted to ask if you changed the summary snippet so that Johnny told Robby to put his hand down instead of Miguel, I could have sworn it was Miguel, but I'm probably misremembering it 😅😅.
And no! You’re definitely misremembering. I’ve never changed the summary, it’s always been Robby who said that line. The joke being that, as Johnny’s son, he should be the last person raising his hand lol.
"All of you have been doing an excellent job," Mr. LaRusso said, shooting each of us a proud smile. "But, what most of you don’t know is that this is actually a partner kata technique, meaning you can’t master it until you’re able to carry it out in perfect synchronization with another person."
Miguel shot a hand up. "Does that mean we’re ready to partner up?"
"Yes," Mr. LaRusso said, "but only two can learn it at time."
"Why’s that?" Devon demanded, that familiar, competitive gleam entering her eye.
Mr. LaRusso smiled. "Because, Devon, we only have one pond."
I rolled my eyes as Mr. LaRusso basked in their confusion, questions erupting around me, until he waved his hands, getting them to pipe down.
"You’ll learn soon enough," he said cryptically. "Lorena, do you remember how it’s done?"
I nodded, ignoring the curious stares shot my way. "I do."
"Perfect," he said. "Hawk, follow Lorena to the koi pond. She’ll show you what to do."
I bit my tongue, before I could protest. Instead, I nodded stiffly and began leading the way, past Mr. LaRusso, towards the side fence that lead into the backyard. I felt, more than saw, Hawk following after me.
