I feel a bit embarrassed as I am in a towel and I am all wet.

Kate : yes Michelle

I don't feel very well I feel sick and it happened the other day--

Kate : can you still dance in regionals!

I think so.

Kate : well if you want you can just do your solo and I will put someone else in for the routine.

No I will be fine.
