Don't call my sister
You are close friends with Rukhsana and Eko.
For months Rukhsana has trained twice a day and often skips meals. She has lost weight, but none of you knows whether anything is actually wrong, and she says her coach approves her plan. After a morning jog, the three of you sit on the bleachers by the running track.
The scene
Eko: You skipped breakfast again. I'm worried. I think your sister should know.
Rukhsana: I'm training for a race, Eko. I'm fine. Please, everyone back off.
Eko: You said that in March, and you've gotten thinner. We can't just watch.
Rukhsana: Promise me you two won't call her. Promise?
