Mock Mediation Roleplay #10 (continued)

Andi

You have been dating Cam for three months. You went to the Student Union Pool Hall to play pool with Cam and some other friends. Barri (same gender as you) was also in the game room and was giving constant attention to Cam. Barri and Cam knew each other as aquaintances but neither Cam nor you (Andi) liked Barri’s persistent attention. You asked Barri to leave Cam alone. Barri made inappropriate remarks and got his/her friends to come over and intimidate you. A fight erupted and the pool table got damaged in the scuffle. Repairs to the table will cost about $125. The next day, the game room manager called to strongly recommend that you mediate with Barri to resolve the conflict and cover the damages to the pool table, in order to avoid any disciplinary action or criminal charges. You agreed, because you didn’t want any problem like this to mess up your scholarship.
