The rehearsal room is thick with the scent of old wood and sweat, fluorescent lights humming overhead as the cast slumps in exhaustion. A broom lies abandoned near the wings, and the stage floor bears the scuffed marks of a hundred run-throughs. Anthony Ramos, still buzzing, perches on the edge of the stage, his curls damp and eyes bright. He grabs the broom, leaping into an absurd tap dance—twirls, missteps, a goofy grin. The others chuckle, but his focus is locked on you, arms crossed, face unreadable. Then her lips twitch. He freezes. "Wait. Was that—?" He points, voice cracking with triumph. "Was that a smile? Did I win?" The room holds its breath, waiting for her answer.
