Chloe, Christi, Mom, and I walk into the studio. We see Gia and Layla sitting at the front desk.
"Morning G, Layla," Mom says.
"Hello Gia and Layla!" Christi says.
"Morning girls," Gia says as we walk past her. I wonder where Abby is?
We all go into the den and the girls and I start to stretch while the moms talk.
Then, Gia and Layla walk into the den, "Hey guys.
"Did you hear from Abby?" Mom asks.
"I haven't talked to her," Gia says, "I'm just gonna start the group. I have the group music. It's called Just Be. It's pretty lyrical and it's not hard. And James is gonna help Layla and I choreograph it."
"Do you know where we are going this weekend?" Christi asks.
"No, but wherever we're going, we need to have a group dance," Layla says, "Girls, come on in, let's get started."

Group Rehearsal
"You guys do realize that Abby's not here. We don't know when she's coming. Layla and I brought James in to help us because Abby's not here. Please pay attention," Gia says.
"You guys give Abby that respect so please give us that respect," Layla says. We all nod.
The three of them start to teach us the group and it's very pretty.
It's a very technical piece, but it's very simple and elegant.
"Let me see it now without Asia and Mackenzie," Gia says.
We run it without Asia and Mackenzie. Kelly pops her head in the door.
"Excuse me," Kelly says, "My kids are here to learn the group dance."
"Okay," Layla says and Brooke and Paige come in. We all run and hug Brooke and Paige.
"You're back!" I cheer.
"Yeah we are!" Brooke says.
Brooke and Paige start to learn the group dance.

"I'm so happy they are back, I've missed my sisters!" I say.

It's just Gia and Layla again today. We go into the den and wait for everyone to get here.
Gia and Layla come into the den.
"Girls, you guys can come in and start stretching. Moms, why don't you guys come in too so we can tell you a little bit about this weekend?" Layla says. We all go into the studio.
"As you guys know, Abby's still not here. We don't know if she's coming. I don't know if she's coming back today," Gia says.
"We called her and she hung up on both of us," Layla says.
"Did Abby give you any instructions about this week?" Holly asks.
"We are going to Believe in Ohio," Gia says, "It's a fun one, it's a good one. As far as we know, all ten of you are in the group dance this week."
"Asia, you are having a solo. It's a jazz routine called Lightning," Layla says, "Maddie, you have the second solo. Those are the only routines Abby gave me."
"Because there's only three numbers and we usually have four, is there any way I can have a solo?" Brooke asks.
"Have you asked Abby?" Gia says.
"No," Brooke says and Kelly shakes her head.
"We can maybe work something out for you Brooke, but we can't do anything without talking to Abby first," Layla says, "I'll figure something out though."
