I grabbed my stuff from my old foster family and ran back into the theatre. I set my stuff down on my new bed.

I sat down and looked around my room. I decided to start unpacking my belongings. I set my 3 leotards in my closet. I put my small amount of clothes in my dresser. I took out my medals from gymnastics and hung them up. I had about 80 medals. I usually place every meet, which is a blessing.

I walked out of my room and sat down next to Lin. For some reason, I trusted him immediately and was completely comfortable being around him.

"What are you doing?" I asked him, in a preppy tone.
"About to do a live stream." He responded. I raised an eyebrow confused but didn't bother to ask what that was. I stood up and walked out of the room and decided to look around the theater. I finally found the stage. I walked out and looked around. I sat down taking this whole thing in. I was finally adopted by someone who actually cared. I was pulled out of my thoughts when I heard someone yell.

"Excuse me?! Who the hell are you?" I heard someone say behind me. I turned around quickly looking at the person that was standing there. He had curly hair that was pulled back into a bun. The side of his hair was shaved. He honestly looked like he could be related to Lin.

I backed up a little, scared of what was gonna happen next. I heard running coming down the hall. Lin appeared seconds later.

"Anthony. Anthony. This is Maddie. I am fostering her from now on. She will be living in the theatre." He said.

Anthony face calmed down. He looked happy. He did some sort of hand shake hug with Lin.

"I'm sorry. I'm Anthony. Anthony Ramos. I play .. " He was interrupted by Lin.

"Ah. You will have time later to introduce yourself when the rest of the cast gets here." Lin said.

Anthony rolled his eyes. He said goodbye. I followed Lin back to our room.

"I'm sorry. I haven't told the cast about you today. I was waiting for later when everyone was here and I got announce it on the stage."

I nodded my head and walked to my room. Minutes later, Lin walked in.

"By The Way, Where do you go to school?" He asked

My eyes widen. I didn't want to tell him.
