Chapter 19 : Here's Johnny

Baby and Alisa woke up. They ate breakfast. Baby wished Alisa luck with her new dance class. Baby told Alisa they would meet at the small cafe around the corner for dinner. Alisa told her she would see her then. Baby went off to her daily classes. Alisa to her dance class.
Baby arrived at her summer class. There was a new girl there. One Baby hadn't seen before. She couldn't be more than 4 or 5 years old. That was very young to be at Julliard. She must be very talented. Her name was Lily. She had long blond hair. There was something so familiar about her. Baby just couldn't put her finger on it. Baby's summer classes were for young children. They were usually 8 to 15 years old though. That was OK though to have a someone younger. Baby would make sure no one picked on her for being so young. Baby had noticed that Lily could really dance well. She would ask her parents at the end of the summer about her going to Julliard full time. She seen a lot of herself in Lily.
Alisa had made it to her first dance class. They would be teaching dirty dancing. Alisa was excited to learn a new kind of dance . She couldn't wait for the class to start. Soon everyone arrived. There were two instructors standing there. A long blond headed woman. She was tall and thin. She had to be about 26 or 27.
She was very pretty though. There also was a man standing there. He looked to be in his late 20's. About 6 foot tall. Brown hair and the most beautiful blue eyes i had ever seen. They started to introduce them selves. She went first. I am Penny i was once a rocket. I love dancing. I am going to show you all that i know. If you need anything or have questions i will always be here to help. At the end of the summer we will have a big show. Some of you will be cast in. Please sign up if you are interested. Next the man began to speak. Hi my name is Johnny. I am the owner of this studio. I hope that you will all enjoy what we have to offer. Any questions?
Johnny looked just like the Johnny that Lisa had described to me. I wasn't sure but, i was going to find out. I would wait until after class to talk to him. Soon the class was over. It had been an awesome class. I couldn't wait for tomorrow. I walked over to Johnny. I asked him if i could talk to him. He agreed to talk to me.
I started out just asking him about his career and how he became a dancer. Then i asked him his last name. He asked why. I just said so i could tell my parents. That they wanted to know.
That seemed to satisfy him. Of course it was a lie. I wanted to know if he was Baby's Johnny. Then came the answer. He said, the last name is Castle. I couldn't believe it. It was Baby's Johnny. I didn't tell him i knew Baby. I had to think about what i was going to do. I needed to talk to Jamie to get some advice. So i told Johnny i would see him tomorrow. I called Jamie. I told her i had to talk to her. That i didn't have but, two hours until i had to meet up with Baby. She agreed to meet me. Once there she asked me. What was so important that it couldn't wait. Then i told her about Johnny. I asked her what i should do. She told me to set up a meeting with them. Tell Baby i wanted her to go with me somewhere.
To have Johnny there. To explain to him about Baby and see if he would be willing to meet her. If he wasn't not to say anything To Baby. We wouldn't want her to be hurt. So i left and went to get changed for dinner. Baby's classes were over. She was just waiting on Lily's Parents to pick her up. A woman walked up 20 minutes later. Hi i am Lily's mother. Sorry i am so late my dance class got out late. It wont happen again. Baby looked up. It was Penny. Lily was Penny's daughter. She couldn't believe it after all this time. Penny was there.
Penny then recognized Baby. She said, Baby is that you. Baby answered yes.

Penny: Wow i see you really made something of yourself. A teacher at Julliard.

Baby: Yes i am very happy here. Lily is a very good ballet dancer. You should think about enrolling her full time after the summer.
It would be a good opportunity for her. I can get her in i am sure of it.

Penny: That would be wonderful. Please let me know.

Baby: I will Baby stood there for a minute wondering if Lily was Penny's and Johnny's daughter. She decided to ask. She was actually not trilled to see Penny after all that she had done. That wasn't Lily's fault.
She wanted to help Lily. So she would put her differences aside for Lily's sake.

Baby: Is Lily Johnny"s daughter.

Penny: No Baby. She is Billy's. We have two children. Lily is the oldest. We have a son named Ben as well.
He is a year old.

Baby: I am sorry Penny. I just thought after Johnny and i broke up. He would have been with you.

Penny: Don't be silly Baby. He didn't love me. I need to tell you something. Please hear me out.

Baby: Ok Penny. Be quick i have to meet my friend for dinner.

Penny: I will be.

Baby wondered what it was that Penny had to tel her. Penny had told her how she lied about Johnny all those years ago. That she was sorry. Could Baby ever forgive her. Baby didn't hold grudges. So she forgave Penny. Penny explained why she did it. Baby thanked her for being honest. That made Baby feel worse for not trusting Johnny. What had she done. Penny didn't tell Baby that Johnny was in New York. She wanted to tell Johnny first. So Penny told Baby she had to go. That she would see her tomorrow. They could talk more then.
Baby couldn't wait she wanted to know about Johnny. She had so many Questions for Penny. She knew she would ask Penny tomorrow. Baby went to dinner with Alisa. She told Alisa that she had seen Penny. Baby never mentioned Johnny. So Alisa decided not to mention she had seen him. She would ask Penny tomorrow. So Alisa and Baby went home and went to bed. They were both tired from their day. Alisa wondered what tomorrow would bring. She couldn't wait to see.
