"I can't do it." I tell Mr.Chase. "I'd crack on stage. In an instant."
"You'd help a lot. Please."
"I don't even know if I can sing it."
"Try." I sigh and lift up the music.
"He'll show up today! Take a princess any princess. Take your pick their all like me. Not exactly. I'm still waiting. They're all living happily."
"That was great, Niamh. Take a night to think about it. Here's the full sheet music with the lyrics and the flyer for the fundraiser to give to whomever if you chose."

Lin's pov
"She's at Annas house.""We should tell her she can have Anna here. I'd like to meet her. I asked her about her this morning before rehearsal and before she left. She said that she is not much quieter then Anna but Anna isn't shy. Just quiet." Pippa starts looking for the bottle.
"I'm glad she has a friend. She isn't talking about school yet. Even when I ask. My guess is it isn't going well, then."
"We'll get it out of her. It's no less." She zips it back up. "Let's go." I flip open the folder on the table.
"Sheet music. Shrek."
"Really?"
"I believe the storybooks-" i read aloud, turning to another page. I see highlights towards the end. "About time- are you there- today." I mumble some lyrics. And the next page is a flyer. Pippa pulls her phone out and snaps a photo of it.
"I need to hear this."

Naimh's POV.
I laugh as Leslie leaps like a ballerina. "You go, now." I sasha and leap the best I can."Anna is also a dancer."
"And she taught you that?"
"She teaches me everything."
"Seems like a good friend. Do you teach her things?"
"I help her in art class and sometimes singing but she's already got a good voice."
"I've never heard yours." I shrug and look at the empty seats. "So why don't you sing."
"I don't know if my teacher is honest about my voice. I'm afraid it's really bad."
"I'll be honest."
"You would tell a ten year old that they suck at singing?"
"No. I would tell them that they stink at singing. Language."
"That's not a swear!"
"I don't wanna know what you've heard of swears, okay. You probably know words you don't know are swears."
"Yeah. Saying them saved me three times from homes." I laugh but he look serious. "The only thing I can do is laugh about it. So I do."
