Reading of Me
In this reading of ME, Abrielle has recently put several of her drawings up for auction. The drawings were all bought by Kate, a woman they met a few months prior to the auction, while camping. Kate has invited Abrielle and Clayton over for dinner where her family reveals the real reason they purchased the drawings.
