Prompt #: 49. "I didn't know you could do that"

******************

"You took martial arts?"

Barbara looked up to see Walt examining a picture frame he most likely had taken off the wall.

"Yeah, took it after my husband left me and Jim. I stopped going when I started taking classes to be a doctor." She replied, getting up from the table to walk over to him with a cup of tea in hand. "Orange belt in krav maga, Jim thought I was the coolest mom when I told him I was taking those classes."

"I didn't know you could do that." Walt chuckled as he placed the frame back on the wall. "But it was rather obvious when you hit me several times with a broom."

"And when I took on Angor Rot with a shovel." Barbara added with a laugh. "Maybe I should take up classes again, orange is still a low level."

"You should, who knows what's going to show up on our doorstep if Tobias' is busy elsewhere."

Barbara tapped her chin thoughtfully. "Hmm, maybe I should. You do need someone to protect you."

"I'd say the same to you, but I think you have that covered."
