He’d just received the call, the one he’d waited for, the one he’d dreamt of: he’d been accepted to Juilliard. He paced the small apartment, unable to contain the giddy feeling bubbling inside.

Drinks are on me when you get back, dude!!" He paused, glancing at the contact name. *Mr. Harrison - Landlord*. He cackled, a bark of pure exhilaration.
