Kicked off the team
Melissa was still officially a part of the team, but in reality, it felt like she had been thrown off the squad. It was all because she could not perform well if she was pregnant. She felt like it was unfair, and that she could still offer the squad something. She was a natural-born leader after all.
She sat in her dorm and spoke with her friend, Rachael. They came up with a plan on what they could do to get Melissa back on the team. It wasn’t going to be easy, but maybe if they applied enough pressure on their coach, she would have no choice but to take her back.
