The foreman painstakingly slid back into the Kenpo fighting stance, Carson,
on the other hand, looked a little worried.
"It's just a stance, Carson," said Eric "Don't let it intimidate you"
Carson nodded. He moved in swiftly with a jab-cross-uppercut combination, the foreman was moved a little, definitely in pain. Carson seized the opportunity, and followed up with 4 vicious reverse punches, one after the other. The foreman was thrown against the ropes, Carson wound his arm up for a deathblow; then. *POW* he was down for the count. The prisoners cheered. V for Victory.
Later that night.
Carson hadn't taken a scratch, and was feeling quite pleased with himself.
"So," said Carson "When the hell you plan on teachin' us Judo?"
"Us?" inquired Eric
"Hell yes," said Carson "Me 'n Smitty"
"Smitty?"
"Yeah! Smitty Raymond; he wants to learn too" laughed Carson "You didn't think I'd go alone didja?"
"Well," said Eric "I had planed on it, but."
"Hell, yeah!' shouted Carson "Then it's settled: meet us in the loft, in the old hay room, during lunch hour; 11:30 to 12:30"
"Geeze," said Eric "This'za frigging prison camp, and we get an HOUR lunch break"
"Oh, god damn, you pansy!" said Carson, sealing the deal
The old woman began to suck on her cigarette
"Are you single?" she asked
"That's kind of personal, Mrs. Hansen" replied Laura
"Well, just answer the damn question," she said uncouthly "Are you single?"
"Well." She had to think, really, and in her thoughts, she thought of Eric; he was disappeared to god-only-knows where, and even so, was he really her lover? I mean, it wasn't official, after all, that was the big thing, but they knew all each other's deepest, darkest secrets. and boy, what a kisser that man was, but. oh. what if he never ever came back? Then what? Was she to remain an old maid forever? That's when it became a choice between devotion and versatility. She thought of an old movie she had seen once with her mother: Castaway, with Tom Hanks and Helen Hunt; after the guy had been gone 4 years she had remarried and had a 3-year-old kid, and to the guys DENTIST of all people! I don't care what the other characters said about her being pressured by the world around her, that woman was an s-l-u- t slut! Then it was decided, she would await his return. but. cripes, but what would Eric want her to do? Eric was an old fashioned guy, he would say 'Laura, I may not be back for 10 years, hell, I might even not be back PERIOD! Laura. go. date other men' wait. other men? She had never even dated Eric! So then dating other men would be no problem. but. oh, geeze. she had left Eric with a memory of anger and hatred. which he was probably getting plenty of. damnit, she owed him something. but staying his maiden? What would people think? Hell with it, she would. but then. what happens in bed? Her lost love plagues her there? She. perhaps. screams out his name in the middle of the night? But. why. he had dare do this to her?! Put her through such PAIN and MISERY??? Well then, we would come to a compromise; she could date other men, but break it off should it become to involved. one problem, however. would she have the willpower to do that? There was only one way to find out. ".Yes, actually, I am,"
"I could hook you up, girl" she said, "My grandson is one studly looking guy, you could at least check him out, I'll send him up to your place such time"
"That's ok," said Laura. in spite of her earlier agreement "I'll just."
"You'll do no such thing!" she said, not even knowing what the hell came next
"Allright, you do that then,"
