Question
Eliza marched down the street, fists clenched and arms swinging. She could hardly think straight. She’d never felt so upset. Her pace was quick, and she listened to each stomp of her foot. The asphalt under her sneakers made a satisfying crunch as each step took her farther and farther from her house.
Around her, the neighborhood was alive and busy. She could see neighbors playing with their kids outside, mowing their grass, or coming home from work. Eliza couldn’t believe the whole world wasn’t crumbling for them like it was for her. She’d worked so hard on her audition video and spent so much time practicing. Getting into theater camp had been her only goal for as long as she could remember. Now, she’d received two rejection letters in a row.
Eliza kept along her thunderous path down the road, turning left and right without thinking until she was standing in the small clearing she always came to when she needed to think. She trudged over to the giant rock where she’d often sit for hours staring at the sky. Flopping down onto it, she stared at the clouds as they swirled overhead, threatening an impending storm. That’s just what I need right now, she thought grumpily, daring the sky to open up.
Her thoughts were racing as she tried to piece together haphazard plans to make theater camp a reality. Squinting hard at the arc of branches above her, she knew that she wouldn’t rest until she received an acceptance letter. Fueled by a newfound determination and soothed by her favorite spot in nature, she jumped up and jogged home. She had a plan!
What causes Eliza to quickly head home?
She is going to call and ask why she did not get accepted into theater camp.
She has an idea for how to get accepted into theater camp.
She wants to get home before the storm begins.
She wants to go home to figure out a new hobby besides theater.
