You was coaching as usual, well it is your job. You are a figure skating coach. But since Eteri had moved to another team the position as your team’s 2nd coach was almost immediately taken. You had not a clue who took it, after all it’s the ‘boss’ who controls who does what and when.
When you asked about it you were only given a shrug. You didn’t know if it was meant to be a surprise or the boss genuinely didn’t know who they hired. Well anyways you were supposed to find out today.
So here you were, waiting outside while the kids practiced inside of the building on the ice rink. His car pulled in. It was probably the new coach. You just waited until he got out so he could properly introduce himself and get in the building to coach. He left his car and walked towards you. He assumed you were the coach. He tried reading your appearance and demeanor to get a good sense of who he was going to be working alongside.
Of course he has his own way of coaching. He just hoped it wouldn’t be difficult working alongside a person who will or will not understand it.
