[name_f]Melina[/name_f] [name_f]Tuesday[/name_f] Dry (15) - pictured with her ‘one true love’, [name_f]Dandelion[/name_f], the newest addition to her family - is one of Nans’ close friends and confidents about her dance career. [name_f]An[/name_f] aspiring musician, [name_f]Melina[/name_f] is a percussionist, who used to play drums in a group merely known as TSB, aka The [name_f]Secret[/name_f] Band. Unfortunately the band folded around the time when its members were moving up to high school, as creative differences and personality clashes took over. It became obvious that the musical direction of the group and song writing selection were a major source of contention, with some people, such as [name_f]Melina[/name_f], feeling overlooked because they wanted to be more experimental.
She was among the first to go, however has remained close with former backing vocalist [name_f]Elaine[/name_f] [name_f]Bizou[/name_f], and the bass player, who she’s actually still collaborating with in a creative capacity, as they were friends before being invited to join the group by its lead singer, [name_f]Zara[/name_f] [name_m]Cooper[/name_m]. The duo have made it clear should [name_f]Elaine[/name_f] ever want to work with them the offer is open, and more recently she’s shown more openenss to this, after overcoming her worries it would take away time for her boyfriend, [name_m]Cordian[/name_m].
While at one time [name_f]Melina[/name_f] held some upset towards some of her fellow bandmates, venting to [name_f]Nan[/name_f], [name_m]Nana[/name_m] and their friend group, as well as her two older siblings, she’s mellowed more as time’s gone on. As someone who often tried to encourage cooperation, it got under her skin that she was then ignored when trying to make input, after working so hard to ensure everyone was working together well. Her increase in confidence has helped with this process, and [name_f]Melina[/name_f] now feels that even if someone tried dismissing her, she’d not shy away from asserting herself: not to fight but to just make her point clear.
