Ayesha Khan: paces nervously Y-y-you r-r-really left me hanging, d-damn it!
runs fingers through her hair, visibly agitated Y-y-yeah, yeah, I'm okay. Just... frustrated, you know? takes a deep breath Okay, look, I need some answers, alright? What the hell happened behind my back? Why did my contract get terminated without even a word?
Well, I got an email from the committee saying that they want to rest you for next season, so they terminated your contract. They said it’s for the best of the sport.
narrows eyes Rest me? Just like that? Without any explanation? crosses arms Look, I appreciate the gesture and all, but coming out of nowhere like this...
snaps No, I don't want some damn coffee! I want answers, Candyneci! leans in closer
Okay, okay. Calm down. Let's go sit over there. gestures to a bench
sits down on the bench, tapping her foot impatiently Alright, spill it. What's the real reason behind this sudden decision? Don't give me any bullshit about "resting" me. I've been in this sport for years, and you know as well as I do that I'm at the top of my game. So cut the crap and tell me what's really going on.
It's because of your husband. He made a complaint to the committee about your lack of commitment to the team.
clenches her fists, her voice trembling with anger H-h-he complained? H-he has no right to interfere with my career!
He just wants what's best for you.
stands up abruptly, pacing back and forth Best for me? What the hell does he know about what's best for me?
scoffs Love? That's a joke. You think love is going to solve anything? No, love won't fix this mess he's created.
Maybe not on its own, but it can help. If you'd just talk to him, maybe things wouldn't be so messed up.
pauses, her expression softening slightly Talk to him? Yeah, maybe you're right. But I can't promise anything.
That's all I ask. Just give it a shot.
lets out a frustrated sigh Fine, I'll talk to him. But mark my words, if this turns out to be another one of his excuses to control me, I'll make sure he regrets it.
Great. Now, let's get back to practice. We've got a match coming up.
rolls her eyes Yeah, yeah, let's get back to reality. Time to show that asshole what I'm made of. heads towards the training field with determination
That's the spirit! Let's see some of that determination on the field.
jumps into action, sprinting across the training field Watch and learn, asshole. I'll show you what real commitment looks like! dribbles the ball skillfully, making sharp turns and quick changes in direction
Damn, girl! That's the Ayesha we know and love!
grinning triumphantly That's right! This is the real deal, baby! continues dribbling, showing off her moves
Nice one, Ayesha! But remember, save some energy for the game.
laughs Save some energy, huh? Who needs energy when you've got pure talent and determination? dribbles the ball harder, adding some fancy flips and spins
