Hunter: so, have I convinced you to give tennis a go? :)
Natalie: maybe :)
Natalie: definitely today’s class was less traumatic than what I remember from the middle school
Hunter: “less traumatic”
Hunter: you don’t seem to be overly enthusiastic :D
Natalie: i didn’t mean it this way ;)
Hunter: actually, why do you dislike tennis so much?
Natalie: when i was in my early teenage years my parents used to make me play tennis, although i absolutely hated it
Hunter: why?
Natalie: my dad wanted me to become the next Steffi Graf
Natalie: plus i was a little bit overweight and he thought that playing tennis would help me to slim down
Hunter: i see...
Hunter: that’s why you were so reluctant, huh?
Natalie: mhm
Natalie: but i had fun today, so maybe i’ll change my mind
Natalie: i just have really bad associations with this sport
Hunter: well, i hope you’ll rediscover tennis for yourself, you’re really good at it :)
Hunter: you know, there’s no pressure this time :)
Natalie: thanks! :) maybe, who knows... ;)
Natalie has bad memories of tennis, because as a teenager her father forced her to play it. Hunter tries to convince Natalie to give tennis another shot, because she's good at it.
