"I didn't see thating either. After your show, our parents rushed out of their room and cdownstairs for supper," Robert said in awe. "I guess they were excited." "It's just an internship. Why would they be so excited?" Ivy asked.
"I guess they are glad to see you all grown up! You are brilliant and can easily make it on your own without their support. They are proud of you." "I see! Robert, you should go to sleep! Stop playing with your phone." Ivy took his hand and pushed him toward the stairs.

"How could you ever embarrass him? You are great," Ivy said. "Robert, you are absolutely awesand can do anything." "Thank you. I got a fake ID anyway. I don't want others to know that I'm a Foster," Robert said.
"Sure! No one will know who you really are, then." "Yeah! If you can rely on yourself, so can I." Robert had made the decision to intern at his father'spany because of Ivy's influence.
"You will do great, Robert. Go to bed! You can't stay up all night from now on. Keep an eye on Mom and Dad to keep them from doing so as well." Ivy felt more and more guilty when she thought of how her parents stayed up for her sake.
"Alright.e upstairs with me. You should go to sleep as well." "Sure." On the second floor, Ivy removed her makeup and changed into her pajamas before falling into bed.
She should have fallen asleep right away, but she simply lay awake with her eyes wide open after turning the lights off as she replayed her performance in her head, over and over again. She had to keep a leveled head despite all thepliments she received because her family would always encourage her even if she performed poorly. Since she could not see her show for the tbeing, she could not objectively determine how well she had performed.
Ivy felt move nervous and excited.

Her only regret was that her grandmother could not be alive to see how happy she was. If only she lived long enough to see Ivy with a family who loved her and a job at a television station, her grandmother would be over the moon. Tears welled in Ivy's eyes as she decided that she would have to return to Taronia, where her grandmother was buried, someday.
Sometlater, the sun rose, and Ivy slept all the way until noon.
Starving, she woke up and went to wash up before dragging her feet downstairs.
Though she had rested, her body was struggling to adjust to the night shift, and she still felt exhausted.
