[Ballet Elite] Rondo of Dreams

?Behind the curtain, beside the stage, I am fearless.

"Masumi! Are you ready?" My hand was tightly held by the other pair of hands, I turned my head and looked into a pair of familiar eyes, "It's time to play!"

"En!" Teacher, you have always, always been here, always...

Meeting my eyes, Mr. Serkeyev smiled slightly, and said seriously, "Masumi, now you must be able to dance a very good dance, which is different from Liliana's dance, and only belongs to you!"

"No!" For the first time, standing on equal ground with the teacher, "It should be a dance that belongs to the two of us!"

"Masumi..." The teacher stretched out his hand and hugged me, "Dance the dance that belongs to the two of us!"

The opening bell rang officially.

Act I, Scene [-] - Juliet's solo dance.

With the sound, I gradually began to integrate into the world of music.

I sometimes think that my life is like a completion game.At the beginning, I received special training from the teacher and danced Aurora - to complete my skills.Immediately afterwards, I jumped the rickety pony and competed with Larissa and Liliana on Swan Lake-completed my interpretation of the dance.And then, it is the legend of love—to complete the dance feelings, to dance modern ballet—to complete the self. Not long ago, it was the ugly duckling that connected these in series and changed.

And now, my ballet is just about to start exuding a unique brilliance...

The second scene - pas de deux.

Teacher, this is the first time, probably... and the last time I will dance with you on a formal stage like this.

Teacher, you must not know that this is my dream.And how much effort I have to spend to catch this dream.

I've always dreamed of dancing with you...

Starting from dancing Mafuka, starting from realizing my feelings... No, it should be a little earlier, starting from dancing Aurora with you for the first time...

The long wait has finally become a reality.

Even if it's just this one time, even if it's just this one dance...

Teacher, teacher, look into my eyes.

Even if I will leave, even if we may not be able to reunite.

But there are some people, even if they are not around, they have to act like they have been together all their lives...

Let us, in this dance, go through this life...

Romeo and Juliet - Wedding.

jump!

Let's dance together, let's dance to our heart's content!

You see, even without saying a word, everything is fully reflected in the dance together.

The feeling of liking is transmitted from the clasped hands, and then transmitted back from the intersecting eyes... The relationship between people is so subtle.Through ballet, it seems that the vibration of the soul can be conveyed...

It's nice to be able to dance like this...

Act III, Scene IV - Romeo and Juliet's final ending: both die for love.

It's not that I don't love, it's not that I don't love deeply enough, everything can only be said to be the arrangement of fate, there is nothing more than this.

Seeing Romeo lying down, for a moment, I seemed to hear Juliet's cry in my soul.

It was as if, at that moment, I had already become that 14-year-old girl who could not live together, but would die with her lover...

I truly grasped the existence of the light on the other side of the wall...

The music ended, and for a split second, I thought my ears had suddenly failed and I couldn't hear anything.A moment later, thunderous applause came.

I wept with joy and saluted the audience again and again.

Until here, until now, I have not completely overcome that fatal weakness.

"Teacher," I walked backstage, turning a deaf ear to the voices of those who came to congratulate me, and said softly, "I'm... going back to Japan."

"Needless to say, I already...know it." The teacher embraced me, and put a light kiss on the top of my head, "Masumi, you are the best partner...the best..."

"teacher……"

"Masumi, Masumi..." Liliana and her uncle rushed over together, her face was full of tears.

"Masumi, you danced really well!" Liliana rushed over to hug me, "I'm so touched... This time, I really saw the light in you, that kind of human-specific emotion, it's so beautiful..."

"Thank you." I hugged her back and said softly.

My Romeo and Juliet has finally come to an end.

The news of the success of the performance quickly spread back to Japan, and the association immediately reacted - asking me to return to China for a special performance. According to Mr. Di, there are even candidates for a partner, but there No reply yet.

"Masumi, are you really going back to your country?" Liliana asked me very reluctantly, "It's hard to dance together."

"Haha, according to the notice from the association, there is no way to rush back to the performance!" I smiled and hugged her, "Take good care of your body, I look forward to your Ugly Duckling performance next year."

"Well, thank you."

The moment I turned around and passed by, there seemed to be words like this in the air: Masumi, I'm sorry...

Huh?

I looked back suspiciously, and what I saw was still Liliana's smile.What a strange auditory hallucination!

"Masumi, next time I have a chance, I hope to cooperate with you again." Uncle shook hands with me and said goodbye with a smile.

"Thank you, Uncle!" Thank you for giving me this opportunity to make up for this change, thank you...

"Masumi, goodbye." Larissa smiled, as if meeting her for the first time, but I no longer hated it, "We are rivals for life."

"Goodbye, Larissa, my opponent." I reached out and hugged Larissa.To be honest, I really appreciate her straightforward character, if I like it, I like it, if I hate it, I hate it, that's great...

Then, the teacher...

I resisted the cold rising from the bottom of my heart, and I seemed to use all my strength to show the brightest smile, "Teacher, I'm leaving."

Don't cry, Masumi, don't let the teacher worry, so absolutely don't cry!Look how bright I smile.

Like many times of parting at the airport, the teacher grabbed me and opened his mouth, but he didn't say a word. The face that was almost expressionless all the time was shaken for a moment!

My eyes became hot, and I clenched my hands tightly, making the smile on my face bigger, "Goodbye, Alex..." Give me a smile, I don't want to see it in the end It's not your smile.

As if he understood what I meant, the teacher held my hand tightly, and then slowly, slowly smiled... just like Moscow, where the ice and snow melted...

Teacher, look... spring is coming...
