I got out of rehearsal early and went straight home. After a long day of singing and dancing and practicing lines I was exhausted. I was startled by the toy I accidentally stepped on as I walked through the garage door. "Finn! I'm home." I yelled as I walked up the stairs.

Please talk to me, please?" He stood up and walked to his dress and handed me an envelope. Not saying anything, he sat back down and dropped his head."Open it," he said softly.
