This is the second chapter of No Word from “Coach”, my first —and probably, only— fictional satire about a couple of aliens. Duarf of the Euqinhcet and Citcat of Snorom arrive on Earth to try to understand the figure of the coach. If you have not read it yet, I recommend starting with the first chapter:
DAY 293
7.03: (Planet Earth Time) Date: 4Zθ.μ.Γ36. Location: 18° 18′ 0″ N, 64° 49′ 30″ W.
We decide to go out in search of a “coach”.
7.04: Citcat of Snorom has been studying human behavior during a dark period they call “night”. As he tells me that on planet Earth, the only thing that holds authority is prejudice, we consider it wise not to show our true intergalactic appearance and decide to adopt the one of individualized human beings. We consult the Catalog.
