- Coach: Is something specific on your mind? What's bothering you?
- Thomas: I don't know. It's just hard to focus lately, and I've been feeling nervous.
- Coach: Are you going through a tough time? Do you want to talk about it?
- Thomas: I'm not sure. I guess things are okay with the team, but I just broke up with my girlfriend.

- Thomas: We haven't seen each other yet.
- Coach: How are things at school?
- Thomas: I'm a bit worried. I got some bad grades in the last few days.
