Standing on the field on scrimmage day, waiting to speak to his coach, Fornatee said he had skipped the second tryouts as a matter of pride. "I wasn't going to come to tryouts," he said, "because I tried out. I love playing soccer," he added as he waited for Coach. "I love playing with my friends, but my friends aren't here. It's like you break up with your family. And this is why: don't nobody want to cut their hair. I want to play on the team, but I want to play on the team with my friends."
I asked Fornatee what it felt like to be off Luma's team.
"I'm not off the team," he snapped. "She hasn't called me, and I haven't called her. So in my opinion, I'm still on the team."
