-----

The courts are silent. There are no feet slapping against the ground, no comfortable, dead center hits singing in the air. There are no outcries over drinking the worst tasting juice ever or gleeful namings of crazy new moves. Instead, there is only one lone senior practicing his swings.

Swish, swish.

His racket swings through the air.

Swish, swish.

He imagines the ball flying at him, his racket connecting with the ball. But try as he might, he can't form a picture of his opponent. They blur together until he doesn't even know who he's playing against anymore, if anyone.

They have all moved on.
