That day, she sparkled on stage, beaming with confidence. The stage lights mirrored her radiant grin, like she was meant for that spotlight.

Colin brushed her off, his face icy.
Jessica puzzled over his odd demeanor but then it hit her.
Chasing after him, she tugged his sleeve. “Colin, I messed up. The show, it’s on me.”

She studied him, unsure.
