The Twins a F1 story

Chapitre 8

Carissa POV

After Yuri and Kimi left, I made my way to the changing room to get into my leotard black leotard as well has beige tights. After making sure everything was fine, I took my ballet shoes from my bag and made my way to the ballet studio where the class would be held. Once there I noticed that most of the other seemed to be older than me except one little boy in the corner who seemed not to want to be here.

I made my way towards him and sat next to him before the teacher started to speak.

- Hello everyone, today marks the first day of the new season. Some might see some new face I and others might see some familiar ones. That is because of the final evaluation last year in which we evaluated if you were able to move up a stage in development or not. Anyways we expect all of you to get along since this will be the faces of your fellow comrades during the rest of the season. We will now start with introductions. So I'm missing Lilia and will be your ballet instructor this year and you guys are part of the youth advance group. Next.

- Huh I'm Yulia, nine years old and I'm from Russia.

- Alina, also nine years old and I'm from Belarus.

- Plushenko, ten years old, also from Russia.

- Melina, ten years old, from Kazakhstan.

- I'm Carissa, six years old and I'm Russian.

- Karma, seven from Russia. The boy beside me said finishing the introduction.

- Well, since I assume all of you speak Russian the course will be given in that language. Now then we will begin with stretching and then will move to the bar before you guys go eat lunch and then get change for you figure skating course.

We then all spread out and followed what Miss, Lilia was doing to get ourselves warmed up and stretched for the day. While following her movement I observed the group which I would be seeing ten hours a week for the next year, before my eyes made contact with the boy next to me. He took the opportunity to talk to me a little. Well, more like whispered since we didn't want to get yelled at by Miss. Lilia.

- Привет. He said

- Привет.

- Hum ... you're Carissa, right?

- Yeah, and you're Karma?

- Exactly.

We then fell quiet for a while seeing that Miss. Lilia gave us a little glare through the mirror.

- I hate ballet.

- Then why are you here?

- Well, I like figure skating, but this his definitely the worst part about it.

- Yeah, I totally agree. I responded laughing a little.

- Карма и Карисса, вас двоих убьет молчание? ( Karma and Carissa would it kill you two to stay quiet? )

- Извиняюсь. (sorry). We responded in sink before focussing back on stretching.

We then looked back at each other and laugh a little at the fact of being caught. After making sure we were really stretched out Miss. Lilia finally took us to the bar where we did the usual combination of Plie, Tendu, Battement degage and Ron de jambe. For people wondering why we need to have ballet class for figure skating, it's because it helps keep strong arms and hands all throughout your routine so you always seem to have the same level of energy all troughout and that your arms and hand placement don't become lazy. While at the bar Karma and I kept whispering to each other getting to know each other better since we were the two youngsters of the group. We honestly had a lot in common and understood each other very well.
