For a while, Rachel wallows. It's unattractive and she knows it, but it takes time to come to terms with the fact that her life is not turning out how she has always imagined it. Instead of attending NYADA, Rachel is watching all of her friends move on without her.

She is watching Kurt go to NYADA in her place.

It is crushing. She wishes there could be some other solution. She wishes the accident had never happened. She wishes she wasn't reduced to someone without a voice. Without anything constructive to give to the world. Without a dream to follow.

But wishing does not make changes. Only action does that.

Rachel can't do anything about Finn's choice to break up with her or the accident that took her voice, but she can look at one of these college pamphlets her dads left for her for a place that isn't NYADA.

Maybe.

The End.
