Chapter 163: Drama Program

Abby's actors were horribly unskilled and it took about a week for them to memorize what few lines they had. For the most part she was narrating as much of the story as she could. She finally deemed it fit for public consumption when the kids were able to make it through two run-throughs in a row without forgetting their lines.

They decided to surprise Katie at the library after secretly setting the sign out front from "open" to "closed." While she was putting some returned books back where they belonged they snuck in and moved some of the furniture around to clear a space for a stage.

Then they set up one particular couch with as many pillows as they could find and a soft wool blanket. A big bowl of the potato chips Sia made was set next to it.
