The upcoming monday morning, Franklin woke up around 7:00 AM and it was sunny and clear as he made his bed and headed to the bathroom to get ready for the day because today was the first day of him helping his former dance teacher out. He took a shower which took five minutes and after he came out of the shower, he headed to the closet to choose what he was gonna wear.
Since it was always warm in California, he picked out some Adidas sweat pants, the sides had Red, yellow and green stripings and the Adidas logo was in the same colors, a buttoned up short sleeve shirt that matched, a tanktop and some Adidas sneakers and it was sunny outside with no clouds.
Franklin arrived at the studio and it still looked like a beauty after all these years, everything that was relcoated to Los Angeles was still intact, the building was the same as it was when it was in pittsburgh as he parked next to Abby's car and got out and looked at the building.
"Wow, this place brings back great memories." Franklin said to himself, and even the Reign Dance Productions logo was placed near the sidewalk, then he headed inside of the studio and sitting at the front desk was his old friend and dancing partner, Gianna Martello, who had a smile on her face when she saw him standing there.
"Hello there." Franklin greeted.
"Franklin?! Oh my gosh, It's been so long since i've seen you! How have you been?" Gianna excitedly asked as she got up from her chair and ran over to give Franklin a hug.
"I'm doing great, how about you?"
"I'm doing good, i'm now Abby's assistant choreographer, i've been helping her out with choreography since i was 16."
"I know, Abby told me." Franklin replied. "Remember i always came in with a determined look on my face?"
"I sure do, You were Abby's best student, you arrived on time or early, showed up everyday and paid attention and you became a 7 time national champ! With that, i had a feeling you were gonna be a success and you always knew how to make Abby smile, even on a bad day."
"I had my chance, but sadly i tore my meniscus after i botched my landing and it ruined my dreams on being on broadway, and since 2009, i've been living here in Los Angeles helping out dance studios and judging competitions."
"You would have been one of the all time great Broadway performers."
"I sure would have, Remember that duet we did called Atomic Dog back in 1997? You looked so cute because we did that dance to perfection."
"Yep, Abby was laughing in the audience because we danced so funny and after the competition, i heard her mutter, never again will i let them dance to Atomic Dog because they're gonna make me split my pants if that happens." Gianna remarked. "And to be honest, the studio hasn't been the same since you graduated."
"It hasn't?"
"Yep, Abby missed you deeply, everytime she came into the studio and saw your picture on the ALDC Wall of fame, she would remember all of those times you livened up the studio on a dull day whenever you did a funny dance."
"Those were the good old days."
"They sure were. I'm gonna go teach the young ones a class, it was nice talking to you, Franklin." Gianna smiled as she got up and headed to one of the studios and then a male dancer came out and smiled when he saw Franklin.
"Hey, Frank J!"
"What's up, Kev?!" Franklin replied as he high fived Kevin, who he considered a brother because he was an only child and also back in pittsburgh, they loved going to Pittsburgh Pirates baseball games with their parents.
