Hey, Brokes!

Did I make a team?

Mm -hmm.

Yeah, I'm home.

Yeah, you can come.

You'll be wearing my new uniform.

You need to talk to me.

Okay, cool. Team rules. I get that. Yeah.

I'll be here.

All right. Try safe. Bye.

Hey, Kayla.

Did you get the call from Coach?

He just called me.

I'm pretty sure it's because I made the team. I did really good at tryouts.

Yeah, he's on his way, actually.

Probably give me, like, uniform or something.

Oh, no, don't. Don't do that. He's probably going to call you right now and

you know he made it, too.

I know I did so good.

All right, Kayla.

Bye. Good luck with it.

One minute.

You know what you prefer for me? It's ready. Size small.

Size small. Number seven on the back. Number seven. I haven't forgotten, okay?

But I actually came to talk to you about that, okay?

Are your parents home by any chance?

No.

No?

Okay.

We might want to take a seat for this. Is there anywhere we can sit?

No.

We should probably go there.

Was it plays?

No.

This is actually the scoring from the tryouts.

Okay. You know, and you did well.

You did well. Thank you. You know, I just noticed that the girls weren't

mixing too good with you. You know, you were kind of being left out, you know. I

saw girls making faces at you.

People make faces at me all the time.

You just gotta understand, you know, soccer is a team sport, and there needs

be chemistry within the team.

And you're a good player, and it shows it. But

your ability to communicate with the others and their ability to communicate

with you is being nerfed.

And I think it's because of your hijab, you know?

It's just not gonna work.

Okay.

Hold on. Hold on.

You guys, first of all, you guys need me.

Because clearly, I'm gonna sell the rest of those notes.

Disaster.

Tell me about my hijab. Like, does it not do anything? Can you take it off?

I'm not gonna take it off.

How can it be distracting to other people if it's not distracting me?

Alright. I'm the best player on the team.

And I'm wearing this.

I should be fine.

I understand where you're coming from.

But now...

Understand where I'm coming from, okay?

It's a problem already, and the season hasn't even started, okay?

When we get to the Houston teams, when we get to up north, you know, the crowds

are going to eat you alive.

It's going to honestly hinder the team's ability.

But I'll deal with that.

I understand if you can deal with it, but I don't know if the team can.

So for that reason, I will not be giving you a jersey, and you will not be

making this team.

That's not fair, though.

This isn't something that would happen to anybody else.

I'm trying to help mitigate damages to your career as a soccer player, but

if you're not willing to negotiate or come to a terms, then I'm sorry.

Can you think about it? I don't know.

I still want to be on the team. Soccer is what I do. Soccer is what I'm good

I want to keep doing it with my hijab.

Look,

gonna get loud and they're gonna say things to you You need to prove to me

you're ready and that you're gonna be able to withstand that. Okay, stand up
