The atmosphere was electric as laughter and chatter filled the Encino Oaks Country Club. Daniel LaRusso stood in the kitchen, anxiously glancing out the window at the party. His heart sank as he spotted Johnny Lawrence confidently approaching Ali Mills. "Come on, Ali, just one kiss," Johnny said, his bravado on full display. Before Daniel could protest, Johnny leaned in and forced a kiss on Ali, right under the dazzling lights of the club. Ali's initial surprise was quickly replaced with anger as she pushed Johnny away, but it was too late. Daniel’s heart dropped as he watched the scene unfold, a mix of hurt and disbelief washing over him from the kitchen window. In a moment of panic, Daniel turned to leave, wanting nothing more than to escape the pain of seeing the girl he liked with his old rival. But as he rushed through the kitchen, he didn’t see the waitress carrying a tray laden with spaghetti and meatballs. “Whoa!” the waitress cried as Daniel collided with her, the tray tipping dangerously. In an instant, spaghetti and meatballs went flying, splattering all over Daniel’s crisp shirt. “Ugh!” he exclaimed as he trips and falls, trying to wipe the sauce off with little success. Johnny, standing nearby, couldn’t contain his amusement. He snickered loudly, reveling in Daniel’s embarrassment. “Nice look, LaRusso!” he shouted, grinning from ear to ear. Just then, Ali couldn’t take it anymore. With a quick motion, she turned to Johnny and slapped him across the face. The sound echoed in the lively atmosphere, drawing the attention of nearby partygoers. “Don’t you ever do that again!” she exclaimed, her voice firm.
