The beam of white light hit right at the centre showing him in the spotlight. As he moved, the light followed him capturing his every move, his every emotion, his every facial expression.
His body glided like a smooth butter with the ebony floor and his large hands created stories. His eyes spoke the story as his legs carried the story completing it.
He tied his legs over the long white cloth as he continued the aerial dancing. His toned body covered in little beads of perspiration as he was dancing for 20 minutes continuously.
Jung Hoseok, a dancer. And a best one in it too. 'Red Nation' one of the best dance academies in the whole world. Hoseok wants to get into that academy and for that he is right now doing the aerial dancing.
Red Nation gives only one chance and even auditioning in that academy means a huge deal. Not many people get selected. Only the top and best ones. The academy has a minimum of 50 students at total. And one of the best thing is, there is no age limit. It is all about talent. If you have talent, consider yourself selected.
So here is Jung Hoseok after training hard for years giving audition at the age of 23.
The music playing melodiously accompanying with the piano notes as Hoseok danced to the beat.
He held his right hand on the white aerial silks and tied it on his waist and curved his left leg completely, his head facing down as he changed the positions and allowed himself to feel the gravity as the cloth still held him in air.
"He is good." Murmurs were heard from the judges who came to see the dance.
From the audience, Min Yoongi, his best friend proudly smiled, his gummy smile in display seeing Hoseok dancing. He always felt proud of his friend. For Hoseok, dance is everything and Yoongi will do everything to make him happy.
Yoongi is confident that Hoseok will join the dance academy. As he silently cheered for his best friend from the audience.
The auditorium was filled with people looking at Hoseok with admiration. The dance was captivating and the man himself was ethereal.
"Hey! Was I late?" Kim Seokjin, friends with Hoseok, asked his breath rapid like he came here running.
"If the auditorium being full and in complete silence doesn't make sense to you that it has been a long time since auditions started then I don't know," Yoongi said his eyes not even leaving Hoseok.
"You-" Jin started to speak but thought better of himself as he concentrated on Hoseok's dance.
"What dance is this?" Jin asked after some time not understanding why his friend is hanging down in the air.
"Aerial dancing."
"What is it?"
"Aerial dancing is where one's foot leave the floor while dancing. A modern dance form where one shows how their bodies move easily and allow them to explore the space in three different dimensions."
"Ooh!" Jin then continued to watch the dance when Yoongi felt someone nudging his side. He turned and saw Kim Namjoon looking at him in confusion.
"What is he doing right now?" Namjoon asked as he saw Hoseok doing splits in the mid air.
"Joon, he is dancing the vertical aerial dance. He is showing his acrobatic skills as he is tied to the cloth."
"But why is he doing that? Isn't he afraid of heights?"
"That is dance Joon. And as it is your first time seeing him dance so just watch and later ask the questions," Yoongi said as he continued to watch the dance.
Just 5 more minutes to go for Hoseok to finish his dance and the results to be announced.
Whether Jung Hoseok is selected in 'Red Nation' or not.
5 minutes. 300 seconds. What could have happened?
But those 5 minutes changed Hoseok's life totally.
Just as Hoseok was about to slid off the aerial silk to join the ring next, his legs got tangled in the silk and the cloth got teared at the top making him fall on the hard ground.
"HOSEOK!" Yoongi shouted seeing his best friend fall down from a height, he ran towards the stage not caring about the people he is stepping on.
Jin and Namjoon followed him slightly dazed on what happened and the whole auditorium went in murmurs.
The red curtain dropped down and the judges shook their heads.
Hoseok is not selected.
On the stage, Hoseok is writhing in pain. He clutched his legs which got twisted and the silk still tied on his ankle.
"Hoseok," Yoongi slid on the ground taking his head and placing on his lap. While Jin removed the silk on his ankle, Namjoon called an ambulance.
The backstage members rushed around Hoseok to take care of the said man. One of the backstage members examined his leg. The ankle was swelled and when he tried to move the leg, Hoseok let out a cry in pain. It has been fractured.
Yoongi wiped the tears to be strong for his friend but the words which Hoseok spoke, torn his heart.
"I didn't get selected." Hoseok said, his tears now for the rejection rather than the immense pain he is feeling. The physical pain faded away when his dreams got crushed.
