On Again, Off Again Abby (s3 e24)

Melissa and I decided to see Abby this morning before dance

"Good Morning. Hello" We say walking into her house

"Melissa? Aria? Oh hi" she says when she sees us. "Don't you two look fancy"

"So are you planning on coming back?" I ask

"Well my mom's nurses come today. So when you look at her, you think she's healthy. She looks fine, but she's in so much pain. Don't cry. Don't cry" she says when she notices we were tearing up. Mrs Miller has always been like a second mother to me, especially since my mom died when I was still a teenager. "I don't know if I'm going to be at pyramid today."

"Well we have to tell you this past weekend, we were sad you weren't there. Maddie and Ale need you back this week." Melissa tells her

"What Maddie and Ale need and what Abby needs are two different things. My mother needs me more than Maddie and Ale do."

"Oh yeah. But it's two weeks to nationals." Melissa points out

"I think you can rest assured with Maddie's record and especially Ale's record, that they're gonna be performing at nationals. Don't worry about that." Abby assures us. "My mother comes first. When I'm upset, she's upset. And that's what you have to understand. I can't take everything. And you know how my mother feels about Kelly. Melissa, Aria, do you realize that when my dad was dying in intensive care, we kept my dad on life support during the entire recital. I never spoke to him again. I just need time and that's what I don't have."

Mom and I came into the dancers den and everyone else was there. Mom and Melissa told the moms they don't thinks she's coming back. Then Gia comes in

"Girls listen, can you just go to studio A and start stretching?" Gia asks us

Gianna informs the moms that Chloe is doing a solo

| Abby already knows that she wants to give Maddie and Ale solos at nationals. She wants me to work with Chloe on a lyrical piece, which is her best style. So Cristi better not have any complaints | Gianna Martello

She says everyone is in the group dance she thinks and it's contemporary. And Maddie and Ale don't have solos but they are getting featured in the group. Asia and Kenzie also have a duet.

Alessia's pov
The girls and I are stretching and talking

"So do you guys think that Abby is gonna come?" Chloe asks

"I don't know. My mom said she is spending time with her mom" I inform them

"Oh ok. I kinda hope she does but also that she doesn't" Nia says and we agree

FOUR DAYS TO
COMPETITION

We already learned the group dance so right now Chloe is doing her solo rehearsal. I'm in a ballet private working on some bar work

Then I go to my 30 minute acro private that my mom just signed me up for. I work on some flexibility since it's my first private. The teacher wanted to see what I really needed to work on

THREE DAYS TO
COMPETITION

"Question. Who wants Abby to be here today?" Melissa asks us since we're all just sitting in the dancers den.

"Me!" Asia says

"I'm ready for Abby to just randomly walk into rehearsal and be like you're doing this wrong, you're doing this wrong" Kendall laughs
