Was it possible to fall in love with someone and have only known her for a week? I was twenty-eight, and I had been in relationships before. A few times I thought I had loved, but even after months, I hadn’t been sure.

One look at Tayla and I felt like she was the electrical current that my body needed to keep going. A single kiss fully charged me. I was either getting really sappy in my old age, or I was head over heels in love with the woman.

That should have scared the shit out of me, but it didn’t. In fact, as she followed Master Lyons back to the locker room, my heart sped and I wondered how I was going to make it through the four-hour self-defense class without pulling her into my arms and kissing her again.

A few minutes later, the other ladies began to arrive, and soon Mark and I were busy welcoming and chatting with the women in the class. A few of them flirted with us, especially with Mark, but we kept our distance and didn’t encourage them.

For the first hour, we discussed the things we had learned the week before. A few people shared positive stories of things they had done during the last week. One of the ladies said she got to use the wrist release at the bar where she worked when some guy started to get touchy with her. After she knocked him on the floor, everyone was careful to avoid coming too close for the rest of the night.

The stories were good to hear, especially for those who had not had the opportunity to use the skills they had learned. It gave them a sense of peace knowing that they could, if the time came.

After that, we had them stretch out and we went through what we had previously taught them. One of the women from last week wasn’t able to make it, so Tayla had a partner among the women. It gave me a chance to watch her and help the others with some of the more difficult moves.

Near the end of class, Master Lyons came out of the office and observed. Tayla was doing a more advanced move that I had taught her when I saw how quickly she had caught on to other things. He nodded thoughtfully as she finished up.

Mark called everyone back to a group and had them take a seat while he introduced Master Lyons.

“I’m rather impressed by you ladies. You have all done an excellent job, and I feel sorry for any man who tries to attack you now.” There were chuckles around the class. “I hope that during these two classes you picked up enough to be able to get yourself out of a situation and get away. Our intent was not to teach you how to take out an attacker, but rather how to free yourself. If you want to learn more, we offer four weeks of tae kwon do training for only ten dollars.
