Andrew decided to head out to Central Park on a nice afternoon day. He would have hung out with Luce, but his roommate is sleeping like a little baby. He's used to it in fact he's thinking of sleeping too once he's done with doing stuff. He had gone off to get some things he needed and now the park is the last stop before home. He walked deeper into the park, on the same way he met his friend when he first came back to New York. He sat down on a bench and opened his Subway sandwich-a meatball sub, and placed his drink down next to him.
He loves subs. He probably had ate about fifty of those in the past few weeks but strangely he didn't gained a lot of weight. Maybe because he also been doing sit ups and things like that. Yep that's probaby why, but he's still skinny like how his friend is. Another thing in common. He bit off the end of the sandwich, with his eyes closed then took a sip of his drink. Maybe he'll be lucky to meet someone here. In fact he wasn't alone in the park, there are tons of people here but they only walk by.

The sudden sound of Kihaps* filled the air as a barely tanned young man practiced martial arts in a part of the open field, his long auburn hair was tied back into a pony tail. He only wore his black gi pants and his black belt around his pants, His gi top was on the bench next to the man eating a sandwich, including his water, a lunch box with food inside of it, and his mow kum*.
Frosty was diligentley practicing, kicking, blocking and punching in set movements that were so flawlessly perfect it seemed to draw a large crowd of people that were intranced as they watched. Frosty finnished with a spining jumping kick followed by a budist punch and a loud and powerful Kihap. The crowd applauded as Frosty returned to attention and then bowed walking towards his things to grab his drink and Mow Kum.
-Occ:
*Kihap: a loud, deep, and powerful yell used in martial arts.
*Mow Kum: A wooden Samurai sword used in Martial Arts to train in swords.

Andrew continued eating his sandwich. Then he heard the noise of clapping and looked to the left as a man with auburn hair practiced some martial arts. He continued to watch as it is now fascinating him, and while he watched he continued eating his sandwich. When the man was finished, Andrew clapped and then finished up the sub just to drink his soda next, of which is his favorite Dr. Pepper.
After the crowd left, the man came upon the bench and now he felt it would be right to say it to him how great it was, of which it really was. "Hey that was great over there, of what you did," he said to him, "I hope you didn't mind me watching." He looked at the right and gasped. "Oh god I'm sorry. I didn't know someone was sitting here." He got up. "If you want I could go and sit somewhere else."

Frosty shrugged, "No biggie man. I just set my things here while I practiced. I didn't mean to draw such a large crowd with a few simple Poemse*" he chuckled grabbing his water gulping half of it down. Frosty then grabbed his gi top and threw it over his shoulder to grab the towel from under it and wipped the sweat off of his face.
"Thanks," he said responding to the man's earlier coment about his martial arts. "I've been in it for almost nine years now." He replied chuckling as he placed the gi back and then sat on the bench next to the man and relaxed for a few moments. "The name's Frosty. What's yours?" Frosty introduced himself.

Andrew chuckled in return. "Well in that case, its okay. At least no one took anything. I mean here in New York, people could just take anything they find. Once I saw a man leaving behind a hat and well that hat was gone in five seconds. I mean come on, how stupid is that? Stealing a hat?" he asked. "Also I think the crowd probably was amazed but I mean wow, you really did some hell of a moves there." He was quite impressed though now Andrew wished he would learn something like that.
He took a sip of his own soda in return to Frosty drinking from his water, and had grabbed his gi top, threw it over his shoulder, and then wiped his face with the towel. While Frosty did so, Andrew crumbled up the paper from the sandwich and threw the paper in the trash can. Then he sat back down and grabbed his soda so that Frosty could sit down. Then, when the man sat down beside him, Andrew returned with a smile. "Frosty, wow, cool name you have there! Nice to meet you, my name's Andrew. So are you from around here, Frosty?"

"A hat? that's kind of really pathetic..." He said in rensponce to Andrew but then suddenly laughed at his complement at his martial arts. "Seriously it was nothing but a few basics. Standard stuff really. And if you really wish I could teach you somethings." He said taking a final sip of his water before putting it away and pulling out a two litter of mountain dew. "Ah yes, the elixer of the gods." He laughed as he opened the now pesperating bottle. A hiss came from it, a sign of the pressure from the carbonation releasing.
He chuckled slightly at the way the man said his name was cool. "It's a nickname really, I like it better than my real name so I treat it like it is." He explained taking a gulp from the two litter then setting it down and placing the cap on it. "Nah," He said repling to the man's question of Origins. "I'm originally from Tampa, moved here becuase I had family here on my dad's side."

"Yeah! I think it is pathetic. I mean if it was a watch, sure, if it was cash, go for it. But stealing a hat, man if you tell me that person was really, really, desparate." Andrew paused for a moment before nodding his head to the second thing. "Yeah! I think that'd be great. I would love to learn even the most simplest moves. If you count me watching Bruce Lee movies, I never learned any martial arts. I just...didn't get to growing up." Its the truth, spending so much time in that garage he never got to. But now since he's not there, why not?
When Frosty took out the soda, he took a sip of his own soda then tossed the now empty cup into the trash can. "Oh yeah, definately! Mountain Dew rocks. That, and Sprite. I'm not that much into Dr. Pepper or Diet Pepsi though but have you ever tasted Coke and Sprite together? Oh so tastes like heaven. I'm sure your real name isn't that bad but I really like your nickname. You know you can call me by Andrew, or as my roommate calls me, Drewy. I also don't mind being called by the nickname Drew. My sisters called me that once or Andy. As for me I was born here but lived in Philidelphia."
