The Letter
“Maybe this will, Coach.” Mellisa handed her the envelope. When she read the letter inside, she knew that she had been defeated.
The letter was straight from the college Dean, Mr. Calligan. Nobody knew that Mr. Calligan was also Melissa’s father. She preferred to use her mother’s maiden name, Gaines, because she wanted to be at the college purely on merit. Although, she did use her father for some favors.
