Crystal Rush is relaxing in her bedroom when her stepdaughter Aria Lee shuffles in. Crystal starts to cheerfully greet Aria until she sees that Aria is upset. She frowns and asks what's the matter while inviting Aria to sit on the bed with her. Aria resists a bit but pouts and joins Crystal, though is a little hesitant to say anything. Crystal is worried, asking her if something's wrong at college? Aria says, no -- she's loving college, even if she's glad for this short break to come home and visit. 'It's just that...' Aria trails, hesitating.
