Chapter 19

Kendall's POV

I wake up to something blaring in my ear. I look up to see Miss Abby with an air horn.

"GET UP, NOW!" she yells. Kenzie and I jump up. Miss Abby leads us down to the kitchen. She hands us each a banana.

"Get dressed and get in the car," she demands. Kenzie leads me through to the lounge. Our dance uniforms are laid out, waiting for us. We pull them on, and Kenzie starts to twist her straps.

"Why are you twisting them?" I ask.

"Mom can untwist them when we get there, so she looks like she's caring," Kenz explains. I twist my straps. We eat our bananas and jump into Miss Abby's car. She drives us to the studio. We go through to Studio A with Miss Abby, while Maddie goes into Studio B. Miss Gianna is already there.

"How was your sleepover girls?" Miss Gia asks.

"It was great, thanks," Kenzie replies with a small smile.

"Miss Gianna?" I ask.

"Yes, Kendall?" Miss Gia replies.

"Can I speak to you in your office please?" I inquire. Miss Abby glares daggers at me from across the room.

"Sure!" Miss Gia agrees. I follow her into her office.

"What did you want to talk to me about?" she asks.

"I… I don't know where to start. Can I show you this video?" I explain. Miss Gia nods and I play the video. She gasps and cries at what she sees. Miss Gia hugs me tightly.

"Why did you not tell me before?" she asks.

"I had no proof, and nobody would believe me," I explain. Miss Gianna leaves the office and I follow her.

"Abby!" she exclaims. Miss Abby looks at Miss Gia and then at me. I shiver and join Kenzie in the studio. Miss Gia grabs Miss Abby and leads her to her office. Kenz looks at me with a questioning look. I nod. Kenzie hugs me. We can hear Miss Gianna yelling at Miss Abby from the studio. Maddie comes into the studio. She hears the sounds and glares at us. Maddie throws open the door to Miss Gianna's office and steps inside. Oh no! It's two against one! I grabs Kenzie's arm and drag her into the office. We stand by Miss Gianna's side. Miss Abby freaks and pulls Maddie out of the office.
