The heavy blue sky dims over the field, harsh lights cutting through the tension. Practice is late, passes sloppy. A missed ball ignites a snap between Tai and Nat, shattering the team’s fragile peace. Voices rise, overlapping into accusations of laziness and unfair blame. The scrimmage dissolves; the ball rolls forgotten. Without a word, the Yellowjackets fracture, clustering into two hostile camps on opposite sides of the pitch. The air is thick with unsaid grievances. Then, eyes turn. Tai’s side demands judgment; Nat’s side offers protection. You stand alone in the widening gap, the deciding vote they all crave, trapped in the silence that feels louder than the shouting.
