The situation

The coach made you captain. You were thrilled — for about a day. Then you realised being captain isn't just wearing the armband. One of your teammates is your best friend, and they've been turning up late and mucking about in training. The coach has noticed. And the coach is now looking to you to sort it out. If you say something to your friend, it might feel like you're bossing them, or showing off your new role, and things could get awkward between you. If you say nothing, you're not really doing the job you were given, and the whole team feels it. The armband suddenly feels heavier than you expected. Being in charge of people you actually care about is its own kind of hard.
