Sequence of Events in Ava's Recital Preparation

One rainy afternoon, Ava sat by her window, watching the raindrops trickle down the glass. She had been looking forward to her dance recital all week. As the clock struck three, she decided to practice her routine one last time. She donned her favorite blue dress and turned on her music. With each twirl and leap, she felt a rush of joy. Just as she was perfecting her final spin, her mother called out from the kitchen, announcing that it was time to leave for the theater. Ava quickly grabbed her shoes, hurried down the stairs, and hopped into the car. The drive to the theater was filled with excitement as she imagined the applause from her friends and family. Upon arrival, her heart raced as she took a deep breath and stepped into the backstage area. With all her friends waiting, Ava felt a mix of nerves and exhilaration, ready to shine.
