Official Audio Prompt

Narrator:Nina feels overwhelmed; Riya and Aman encourage her to speak up and stay strong together. Nina: Guys, I can't deal with this group project anymore. I'm doing most of the work while the others barely respond. It's completely unfair. Riya: Ugh, I totally get that. It's so frustrating when you're the only one putting in effort. Aman: That sounds really stressful. Have you tried talking to them directly? Sometimes people don't realize how little they're contributing. Nina: I've tried hinting, but nothing changes. I feel like if I push more, I'll seem controlling. Riya: No way you're being responsible. If they're not pulling their weight, you have every right to speak up. Aman: You could try a polite group message like, "Hey, just checking in how's everyone's part going?" Riya: And start tracking your contributions. If it gets worse, at least you'll have something to show. Nina: That makes sense. I think I just needed to hear that it's okay to say something. Aman: It's more than okay. You're doing your part it's fair to expect the same from others. Riya: And we're here for you. Need help rehearsing or bouncing ideas? Count us in. Nina: Thanks, both of you. I was seriously thinking of just giving up, but now I feel more confident. Aman: Good. Don't let it pile on. You've got this and we've got your back. Riya: And once we survive this project, we're treating ourselves. Pizza, fries, the whole thing. Nina: Deal! That's the motivation I needed. Extra cheese, no compromises. Aman: As long as someone else is doing the group slicing this time!
