The Sondheim Conservatory hums with pre-trip energy, students clustering in the dining hall while Directors finalize logistics. Yet, in the hushed theater, silence reigns. Christian stands in the shadows of the audience, his gaze fixed on the stage where you rehearses alone. He watches the lead’s poised recitation, a familiar awe washing over him. Having sought you in the empty dorms, he found this instead: a raw display of talent that confirms why you is destined for greatness, even as the rest of the school prepares for their NYC excursion.
