Two Months Later…

Quincy House 5PM:

"Pleeeeaaaassee! Please! Please Mom can I go on the tour?" Anna- Rita begged her mother, who was now four months pregnant.

"No! Ari, you have to understand that tour is a vicious thing!"

"I know that Mom, but I want to experience it for myself! I know from what you tell me that everything's going to go wrong on tour, but also want to meet people, and see the world. Something that you and Dad never understood!" Anna- Rita cried.

"I understand that you want to see the world honey, but you have to understand why your father and I protected you from it…"

"Protected me from it? You guys wont let me try myself out for fame! I really think that I have a chance at it!"

"Do you know how many people have said that Anna- Rita, and come out with nothing but a wasted life?"

"It wont be wasted Mom! I mean it's also about experiencing things. Max gets to do People To People in London this year. I mean, what will I do alone with- out him for an entire summer?"

"Camp counselor, candy stripper, barista? There are so many options…"

"Yeah, and the ONE thing that I want to do, my parents wont let me…" Anna- Rita mumbled.

"Anna- Rita Quincy! I said No! And 'no' is 'no'!" Jude shouted at her daughter.

"Whatever Mom," the sixteen year old replied dully, as she ran upstairs to her bedroom, and grabbed her already packed bags. She had two bags: a large duffle and a backpack.

Anna- Rita ran back downstairs.

"Where the hell do you think you're going Anna- Rita Quincy?" Jude asked.

"On tour," Anna- Rita replied simply, as she walked out the door.

Benton/ Andrew House 7PM:

"Ugh! This sucks!" Anna- Rita moaned as she brushed her hair.

"I know Ari, but this isn't going to stop you from going on tour, is it?" Marta asked her friend, as she put her glasses back on.

"As if!" Anna- Rita exclaimed.

"Girls, dinner!" Kat shouted from the kitchen.

"Coming Mom!" Marta shouted to her mother.

Anna- Rita and Marta made their way to the kitchen. They washed their hands in the sink, and sat down at the counter on two of the five stools.

Their food was already set out, but there was a lot of silence that Anna- Rita wanted to break.

"So, Kat (Ari calls Kat, Kat, because they're so close), from what I hear you used to be against the music biz. Why the change of heart?" Anna- Rita asked Kat.

"I'm not sure if you know this girls, but I used to be so proud that Jude won a competition by being herself. Jude, on the other hand, was happy that she beat the Malibu Barbie Eden. Then, I realized that it was in fact not about either of those things, but the points that you set out to make," Kat explained.

"That actually makes sense!" Anna- Rita beamed.

"What do you mean?" Kat quizzled.

"Well, you said that you like the music biz, because you could makes points. But, someone could also say that my parents don't like the music business, because of what it stands for!" Anna- Rita exclaimed.

"And that would be…" Marta questioned.

"That from what I've heard my father had tons of one- night stands, he also had a single that they wouldn't let him sing, and because of my parents age differences, my parents we always a scandal!"

"Oh!" Marta said. She now understood why Anna- Rita's parents had kept things from Ari, but she still didn't understand why her parents kept these things from her.

"Why didn't you guys tell me anything?" Marta questioned her mother.

"Your father. And how it tore us apart. Also for Anna- Rita's sake," Kat explained to her daughter.

Quincy House 10PM:

Jude and Tommy were lying in their bed on their backs, and both of them couldn't sleep.

"Tommy, what have we done?" Jude asked her husband.

"I don't know…" Tommy admitted. "About Anna or about our new addition?"

"Both. What are we going to do?"

"I don't know girl. We'll leave things along until we decide what we want to do. We don't want to make matters worse," Tommy advised.

"Okay,"
