Stephen shifted his gaze back to Skyler on the stage, apparently her opponent was no slouch either, after a few tangles, he noticed that Skyler’s stamina was also a bit stretched, except for the last time she came to the taekwondo gym with him, she didn’t seem to do any additional training, and suddenly coming to such a match was very strenuous for her.
Skyler on the stage faced with such a strong opponent also very headache, the opponent’s strength seems to be above her, but even in the upper is not higher than a little. She would naturally choose to give up if the disparity was too great, but she couldn’t really do it if she had to surrender to someone who wasn’t so different from herself.
After a few exchanges, she also felt her opponent’s impatience with her and tried to reverse her into a hold several times, but Skyler’s body coordination was quite good and she escaped from the tiger’s mouth several times, avoiding her frontal attacks alive.
Her strength is not much, so she can not attack head-on, and the opposite side of the strength is higher than her, to be quiet, to find her weakness, like Stephen, to find a breakthrough, find the direction ah!
As she thought about the time, the opposite side suddenly reached out to the referee and asked for an intermission. Skyler was confused, how long had it been since the start of the game, an intermission? There is no mistake.
The girl across the street suddenly turned her head to show her a meaningful smile when she picked up the towel, the girl was not good-looking, such a smile, but even more creepy.
But creepy is creepy, Skyler is not stupid, of course, can see that smile, is full of malice and ridicule to her.
Ridiculed her self-importance, both sides are black belts in taekwondo, the process of exchanging blows can not be no sense of the strength of both sides, she must also see that her strength is not as good as hers, so more confident, on her held full of ridicule.
“Hey, what’s all the fuss about.” Stephen had stood behind her at some point and reached out and rubbed her hair.
Skyler stared in surprise, being a black belt, she should have been extremely alert and she actually didn’t notice him standing behind her, “When did you get here?”
Stephen leaned on the barrier with his hands: “When you’re smiling at you from across the street.”
“You saw that?” Skyler asked, inclining her head, “Do you know what she meant?”
Stephen also laughed: “Of course I know …”
“Then tell me.” Skyler looked like he was expecting an answer, but Stephen stood up straight and pretended to be high and mighty: “No, I won’t say, I’m afraid you’ll be upset if I do, and I know you actually understand.”
Skyler sighed and shook his head, “Stephen, obviously we’ve only known each other for so long, how is it that you know me so well?”
The smile on Stephen’s face stiffened for a moment, and although that smile was still on his face, his voice and tone had become very serious: “How can it be that we have only known each other for a while, we have known each other since the time that marriage contract came into effect, ah.”
The words were originally pent up in his heart, he did not want to ruin her life, intended to rotten in the heart of this sentence, but in such an inappropriate situation inappropriate to say out.
Both people have a trace of embarrassment, Stephen is the first to break the silence, he said the words are still so full of medium, let people listen to the confidence: “Remember the day we fight when I reverse buckle you way, although some difficult, but I think you must be better comprehension than me, and personally feel the pressure of being reverse buckled, must be able to put that way Use it well.”
The last time the two of them practiced at the dojo, their figures and moves kept overlapping in her mind, and Stephen’s voice rang in her ears once again, “Even if your opponent is stronger than you, if you use this method well, you can at least fight to a draw.”
The corner of Skyler’s mouth pulled up in a proud smile: “I never bothered to draw, just wait and see, I’ll do the Jedi!”
The referee’s whistle sounded, the game continued, and Stephen returned to his seat, the girl next to him was holding a large glass of juice and drinking it with relish, when she saw Stephen coming, she went over and asked him, “Brother, what did you say to your sister, why is she suddenly so uplifted?”
Skyler, who had just been defeated by her opponent, fought back like a dope, and several moves were made that the opposite side didn’t know how to fight back, and Stephen’s inner pride grew: “Just encouraging her, by the way, helping her find the best way for her.”
The girl didn’t understand anything, biting the straw and turning her head to continue watching the game. Stephen’s clenched fist had a hint of relaxation, but inside he was constantly shouting: snap her up, stop fighting a war of attrition, your stamina and strength are far from good on the opposite side.
The next second he finished his thought, Skyler made a strong effort to snap the opposite side back to the ground, and the two fell to the ground in unison. There was an uproar from the stage, some hooting and hollering, and some encouraging the girl to get up, and if the girl broke free of the arms Skyler had bound her to, then Skyler would never beat her again.
The girl, probably in pain from Skyler’s backhandedness, took it upon herself to ask the referee to end the match, another implication being that she had conceded, she had surrendered, and Skyler had won!
“My goodness, what kind of move is this, the coach never taught me … sister is so good.” The girl looked at Skyler in praise.
Stephen’s pride is already overflowing: “To what kind of people, we have to have what kind of moves, if we learn every move according to what the coach has taught us, we will never know the meaning of the words innovation and improvisation.”
“Taekwondo is certainly teaching you the sensitivity and coordination of the whole person, but more than that, I think it’s the whole person’s resilience and contingency.”
The girl next to him has become starry-eyed, in fact, these things, just Stephen’s own perception of taekwondo, he grew up loving this, some things have long been rooted in his heart, just did not expect, he can still have a day to sit here like this and talk eloquently with others.
Skyler was exhausted, holding her opponent had used up all her strength, when the stage cheered for her, she could only sit on the stage, panting helplessly, her bangs in front of her forehead had been soaked with sweat and stuck to her head, she only had time to make a gesture of OK with Stephen on stage, she was good, she did it.
