The Beginning (Prequel to I Can't Find The Words)

Chapter 4: Sunday Breakfast and heading to Orlando

The next morning after the day of the competition, which was a sunday, Andrew was asleep in his house in a black t-shirt and matching walkaround pants and the time was 8:30 AM, then the sound of an air horn was heard, which nearly scared him out of his skin. Then he turned to the left and saw Abby, Holly and Nia at his bedside and his scared look turned into a grin.

"Good morning, sweetheart." Abby said, kissing him on the cheek and gave him a hug.

"Morning, mom." Andrew replied. "You never fail to find ways to wake me up."

"Well, i have my ways. Hey, Andrew, Holly and Nia are going to get some breakfast at IHop this morning and i decided to go too, would you like to come with us?" Abby asked her son.

"Sure, i'll tag along!" Andrew replied. "But first, i'm gonna have to get ready."

He got up from his bed and made it up neatly and he headed to the bathroom and took a shower and when he came out, he was dressed in gray trackpants and a artistic gray shirt with Reebok sneakers with his bag of clothes he's gonna bring since he'll be with his mother and his grandmother in orlando for the week since they'll attend a competition there as Holly noticed the bag.

"Miss Abby, not to be a snoop or anything, but why does Andrew have a bag of clothes with him?" Nia asked the dance teacher.

"Nia, this weekend's competition is gonna be in Orlando so for this upcoming week, Me and Andrew are gonna stay with my mom, but after the competition, we'll be back in Miami. So after Breakfast, Andrew and i will immediately head to Orlando and you guys can come the next day, so make sure the girls and the other moms get the memo." Abby told her.

"We will." Holly stated.

"Also, you never know, we can have a pool party at my mom's house." Abby told them.

Nia couldn't help but smile at hearing that Abby could hold a pool party at her mom's house one day that upcoming week and she knew that the other girls would be excited as well.

"The rehearsals will be held at a dance studio called Studio K, and it'll be back to Miami the week after this one." Andrew explained, then Nia got in the car with Abby and Andrew with Holly's consent and Holly would follow them and they drove off.

The four arrived at IHOP with Abby's car in front of Holly's car and they parked next to each other, they got out of the cars and headed inside and walked up to the host, who was doing her duty.

"Hello, can we have a table for four, please?" Andrew asked the host.

"We have one available, follow me." She told them as Abby, Andrew, Holly and Nia followed her to the table, which was next to a window on the right side and they sat down. "The waiter will come serve you in a little bit."

"Ok." Holly stated as the host left and then five minutes later, a waiter came to their table to take their orders.

"What can i get for you four?" He asked in a cheery tone.

"I would like the Bacon & Eggs Breakfast, please." Andrew said.

"I'd like the Belgian Waffle Combo, please." Abby told the waitress.

"I'll have the Original Buttermilk Pancakes, please." Holly said.

"Silver five, please." Nia stated as the waiter wrote down what they had ordered and went to serve another table as the four talked again.

"Who do you think is gonna be on top of the pyramid?" Nia asked Andrew.

"It might be you, but my mom can be full of surprises at times." Andrew responded and they continued to talk and their food arrived and they ate slowly, then they all left.

"That was a good breakfast." Andrew stated.

"I agree." Nia agreed.

"Are you guys headed to Orlando?" Holly asked them.

"Yes we are." Abby responded.

"We'll see you two tomorrow for rehearsal." Holly told Abby and Andrew, who nodded their reply and drove to Orlando while Nia and Holly headed to their house.

Three hours later, Abby and Andrew arrived in Davenport and parked in the driveway of a nice looking house on Dolcetto Drive, they got out of the car and Andrew grabbed his bag from the backseat of his mother's car, then they both headed to the door and since Abby had keys to the house, she unlocked the door and they entered and saw Maryen Lorrain Miller, who is Abby's mother and Andrew's Grandmother and she was watching TV

"Hi, Grandma." Andrew greeted his grandmother as he entered the living room as Maryen had a smile on her face, she had been anticipating him and Abby to come since they told her they were gonna spend the week with her since the competition was gonna be in Orlando.

"Hello, dear." Maryen said, greeting her grandson as she got up from the couch while she was watching TV and walked over to him and gave him a hug, then she hugged Abby. "How are you doing?"

Abby hugged her mother back. "I'm doing good, mom."

"That's good to know. Are those moms giving you and Andrew trouble like usual?" Maryen asked.

"Every single week in that studio, but Andrew doesn't tolerate any of the moms trying to give me grief, one time, Christi was claiming i was setting up her daughter to fail, but Andrew was having none of that as he told her off, she didn't say anything else in fear that he would put Chloe on probation." Abby said and then a barking sound was heard.

"Hi, Broadway Baby!" Andrew greeted his mother's dog, which was a white female poodle and she barked in excitement as he petted her.

"Broadway Baby loves seeing you, huh?" Abby asked.

"She gets excited when she sees me and starts barking in joy." Andrew stated.

Time had passed and it was 10:30 PM as Abby, Maryen and Andrew were looking through the photo album and the first picture was a picture of Andrew asleep in his crib when he was 1 year old.

"Look at how small you were, Andrew." Maryen told her grandson.

"Yep, i was a cute baby." Andrew said, then there was another picture of him and Abby with Mickey and Minnie Mouse at Disney World when he was 8 years old.

"You had a fondness for Mickey and Minnie." Abby said.

"I still do, they are my all time favorite Disney characters and my other favorite characters from disney are Donald Duck, Goofy, Aladdin and Jasmine." Andrew admitted.

"You had a crush on Jasmine." Abby snickered as Andrew blushed and they continued to look through the photo album and then Andrew yawned, signaling that he was tired. "You're getting sleepy?"

"Yeah, I'm getting a little tired, so i'm gonna go hit the sack. Good Night because we have a competition to get ready for starting tomorrow and it'll be on saturday, Good Night, Mom. Good Night, Grandma" Andrew said to Abby and Maryen and gave them hugs and kisses on their cheeks.

"Good night, son." Abby stated.

"Sweet dreams, sweetie." Maryen added.

Andrew headed to the bathroom and took a shower, then when he came out of the bathroom, he was now in a black t-shirt and walkaround pants with a scarf around his hair and entered his old summer bedroom from when he was a kid and climbed into the king sized bed and fell asleep.
