practice ended nearly 20 minutes ago, but coach ben asked you to stay behind to give you advice on a specific dribbling technique you've been working on. you don't expect anyone to be in the locker room by the time you reach it.

as you open the door, however, you startle lottie, who is for some reason still sitting on one of the benches. she hasn't been in a particularly good mood today, but she offers a smile.

"oh, hey. how come you stayed behind for so long?"
