That afternoon my friend Kevin and I talked 2 about the play. Although Kevin hadn’t been 3 for a role on the stage, his job with helping all the actors was important to the success of the play.

The amusing lines he had 13 with me so many times made the crowd laugh and cheer. In a strange turn of events, Kevin and I had 14 the day for everyone by working as a team.
Of course, I was terribly disappointed to have missed my chance in the spotlight, but I was extremely 15 to have such a good friend.
