She thought that maybe the number is wrong so, she decided to ask the secretary about it.

"Hello I am Mrs.Hamilton, I was in a meeting with the principal in this morning," said Sophia

"I remember you, is there is a problem," said the secretary

"I got the number of Coach P but, he is not responding I am afraid that the principal my gave me the wrong number, "said Sophia

"Could you recite the number that was given to you by the principal," said the secretary

Sophia recites the number that was given to her to the secretary.

"the number is correct, wait for a minute to check with the principal and come back to you," said the secretary

"Okay," said Sophia

After ending the call, Sophia waited for 5 min before the secretary calls her back.

"Hello Mrs.Hamilton, I check with the principal and the coach is in a training camp with the team, and the phones aren't allowed during practice," said the secretary

"Could you tell me where the training camp is, I have something to discuss with coach P," said Sophia

"The training camp is held in the University of Phoenix-Michigan," said the secretary

"Thanks, have a good day," said Sophia

After the call ended Sophia headed to the university, it wasn't far away , it was just a 50-minute drive.

Sophia reached the University she asked the security guard to call for the coach P and that there is a parent that wants to talk with him.

The security Called the Sports Department to deliver the message.

After a while coach P come to the entrance of the college to meet with Sophia.

"Hello, Mrs. Hamilton, I know it's not fair to have the scholarship that your son worked hard for got canceled, but I think they give you a discount on the tuition may I ask why are you here?" said Coach P with an egotistic tone.

Sophia glared at Coach P because he meant that they give them the discount on the tuition as sympathy for them.

"That's not the reason of me coming here, I will pay the tuition, but I'm here to ask if my son spot on the team is still secured," said Sophia

"I think you are kidding, your son just came from surgery on his back, and he was lucky enough to stand again don't tell me he wishes to play basketball again," said Coach P with a sarcastic tone

"What's wrong with him playing basketball again," said Sophia and anger start building inside

"the doctor told us that he recovered from his injury as for basketball he has no chance of playing once again, so as advice tell your son to quit that dream, and he may be able to get a good college if he focuses on his studies," said Coach P

"That has nothing to do with you, I asked a question, and I need an answer, I don't need you to decide what my son do with his future," Sophia said while anger continues growing.

"You are right am not in a position to decide I was just giving an opinion, as for him playing with the team I don't want damaged goods in my teams so that is my answer so you could leave," said Coach P

"How Dare you, he got injured while playing for your team now that he recovered, he became damaged goods..." Sophia said, and Coach P cut her

"Hey don't think that your son is some genius without me he wouldn't be this good, and as an advice for you better make your son quit, I think you don't the same ending that your husband has," Coach P said arrogantly.

*Slap*

Sophia anger erupted, and she slapped Coach P

"How dare you slap me, Security take her out, and I swear that your son will not find a team to play for in Detroit, "said Coach P while he left cheek is red after that slap he received from Sophia

"do you think am afraid of you, you could humiliate me but when brought my husband dead to the conversation you crossed the red line, " said Sophia said while gnashing her teeth.

The security guard come drove Sophia out of the university.

After being escorted out of the university, Sophia returned back home.

Sophia felt that she was a little hasty and she shouldn't have slapped him but recalling how he brought her dead husband and cursing her son she couldn't control her anger.

Sophia was thinking about what she will do next because after this incident her son will not continue in his current high school, and he needs to change school, the problem is she didn't know which high school she would enroll her son in and that has a basketball team to help her son chasing his dream.

Sophia decided to call her best friend how she was a high school principal Amy Williams.

"Hy, Amy do you know any high schools with good basketball teams," asked Sophia

"What's wrong why are you asking about a high school basketball team, is there something wrong with Walker," Amy responded because she knew that something was wrong.

Sophia told Amy the story about what happened.

"what a prick he deserves it but the problem that he has a lot of relation with a lot of coaches it will be hard to find a high school basketball team to accept him," said Amy

"our high school doesn't have a basketball team so, am going to give you a list of them, talk with them may be one of them want Walker to play for their teams," added Amy.

"Thank you, for your help," said Sophia

"don't thank me, we are best friends if there is no one that accepts him he could enroll in our high school it was quite a long time since we want to revive the basketball team, but there was not enough talent to start with," said Amy

After ending the call with Amy, Sophia received an email from her(Amy) with all the high schools.

Sophia went back to Walker's high school, she did all the paperwork to get her son out of the school.

After a long day, she came back took a shower after that she called her work to take a leave for the next day to visit the schools on the list send by Amy.

Sophia thought that it will be kind easy to find a high school team that will give her son an opportunity, but the reality was harsher than what she imagined.
