Short Stories with Tragic Endings

I am at a building and I have just received a letter. It is a company offering me a job because
they are so impressed with my piece, "Dance of Dreams". I am excited. I walk out of the building
into a grassy area and I find myself in a grocery store with my mom. I see my marching band
director, Mr. Decker, and show him the letter. He says "Good job". Later, in the checkout, I show
the letter to my mom. She is delighted. The checkout comes to $700. I then find myself in a dorm
that is apparently for my high school even though it is not a boarding school. I am visiting. I walk
down a hall to a place where a bunch of people are sitting I see one of my friends, standing, and
I talk to him. I notice that sitting in the group of about six or seven people, is my crush. I say "hi"
and awkwardly move to the end of the hallway where it turns right. At the end of the next hall there
is an open door and I see another friend from high school. He says he has to get a shower but we
should get lunch later. I agree, then go to the next room which is mine. I examine the letter again.
It has a lot of information about my piece including the key which was listed as D ( it is really Eb )
as well as the solfege progression, all in the some table. It had then turned to being a college
asking me to transfer which I am quite disgusted by as I love Millersville and would not transfer. I
decided I would turn them down. The dream ends.
