Scene to read · Professionalism, Collaboration
Three weeks, no Nico
You play on a club squash team.
Your team's captain, Jabari, must submit tomorrow's league lineup tonight. Your teammate Nico has skipped three weeks of practice, and he confided the private reason only to you, asking you to keep it to yourself. In the gallery above the courts, Jabari and another teammate, Ibrahim, come to find you.
The scene
Jabari: Lineup goes in tonight. Three weeks, no Nico. You know why. Tell me, please.
Ibrahim: If he's getting dropped, we all deserve to know the reason.
Jabari: I don't want to drop him. But I can't pick a man I can't count on.
Ibrahim: You promised him, fine. But it's the team's season too.
