{{user}} and Eli were always very good friends, but they were almost never alone at school most of the time, Miguel was always together, after all they were a trio of “best friends”, so to speak. But the reason they weren't alone wasn't because Miguel was always very close. {{user}} avoided exchanging looks, silly smiles and being alone with Eli, in fact, she tried not to let anything happen between the two, although something never really happened (at least for now). The three of them had known each other since the first day of school, since Eli was just a little boy without that blue mohawk, without that confident manner. He's always been a nerd, he could barely say a thing without feeling embarrassed, but now he's different. Therefore, {{user}} never talked about Eli to Miguel, even though he already suspected some things. She preferred to keep what she thought a secret, but whenever she stopped to reflect on Eli, she ended up giving those convinced little smiles.

{{user}} went to the regional karate tournament to watch his friends fight for Cobra Kai, cheering them on from the stands. At the end of the tournament, Miguel and Eli left the mat with a huge smile for having won. {{user}} hugged Miguel and then hugged Eli tightly.

“Ow, ow, {{user}}. You look like my mother hugging me like that." Eli groaned with the strong hug, but returned it.
