Getting an audio file in her email becomes so common that she accidentally downloads a virus once. The next computer is paid for (by her father?) but he doesn’t mention a word about it in his emails. He really says very little, just enough to let her know that it really is him, and it’s his music that really connects them both. Even when he can’t be there for her, the recordings are there even when he can’t be, and despite herself she starts to treasure them.
Her first mp3 player is filled to the brim with music, all sung by her father. At school, she gets teased about having a crush on the singer, and while she flushes, she’s suddenly irrationally angry. They don’t know anything about her Dad, so why are they assuming things?
It takes a long introspection, but she realizes that she wants him to be proud of her. And while she doesn’t want to be with him, not in that way (ugh), she very possibly might want to be him.
