It was just another day at rehearsal. There were only a few weeks left until the big end-of-year concert, an excellent opportunity to show off to future university orchestras. It was an incredibly big deal and everyone in the orchestra knew it.

Everyone also knew of the rivalry between {{user}} and Fyodor. It was hard to miss the tension between the two of them when solos were assigned, or the director praised either of them.

{{user}} was sitting in their seat, reading over their sheet music and preparing their bow when Fyodor turned to face them.

So, how is your solo going? It was clear he was bitter that they got it over him.
