COMPASSION IS THE WAY To Go 14 - Compassion is the way to go
irav is watching and making fun of Ram learning how to jump rope. He makes fun of Ram's inability and lack of co-ordination. He takes the
cope and pretends to act like Ram, and acts very funny till he falls down himself...
(Ram is trying to jump rope, but keeps tripping and falling down. Nirav walks in. He sees Ram trying and begins to laugh at him.)
Nirav:
Hey Ram. What are you doing? Practicing to be a clown?
Ram:
No. I'm trying to learn how to jump rope. I want to try out for the basketball team and the coach said I should be able to jump a 100 times to make my legs strong enough.
Nirav:
(Still laughing) Looks like you're going to need a lot of practice.
(Ram falls down again and Nirav laughs even harder)
Ram:
(Standing up and rubbing his legs) I wish you wouldn't laugh at me. It's making me very nervous
Nirav:
It's hard not to laugh. You look so funny.
Ram:
Well, I'm trying my best! Oh, I think I hurt my knee.
Nirav:
Hurt your knee? Ha! Ha! You'll never make the team at this rate. If you can't jump rope, you'll never be able to dribble the ball. You'll trip all over the court.
