I never knew what my special talent was. I knew I had one, everyone does. I just need a little help in finding out what it is.
Gregorio: 5 6 7 8
I try to dance to the music but it kind of looms like I'm having a spasm attack. I spin around the room, bumping into Gregorio, falling to the floor and taking him down with.
At the last few beats of the song, I quickly scramble to my feet and strike a pose. I take in my surroundings as I finally realize that everyone is staring at me, and can't help but blush at the faint sounds of Leon's chuckles.
Gregorio: what do you think you were doing
Me: d-d-dancing?
Gregorio: dancing? dancing? DANCING! That was nowhere near dancing! That was an embarrassment to the art of dance! You should be ashamed of yourself
Ludmila: Told you she was useless. Everything she does is embarrassing
I bite my lip and look to the floor.
Gregorio: What are you still doing here? Get out of my classroom and take the disgrace you call dancing with you
So I run out the room in tears. I didn't want to take Gregorio's class but when you have no talent you don't have a lot of choices.
I find myself in Angie's room but she has already gone for lunch.
I notice a piece of paper with words that you are meant to sing and instantly remember it as a song my mother used to sing when I was younger.
And I'm gonna sing, in my own world as loud as i can. Im not gonna stop, i'll keep on trying I know that I can. I'm gonna sing my song.
I drop the sheet to the floor as I hear someone slowly clapping. I turn and face the door. Leon.
Leon: You have an amazing voice.
Violetta: Er th-thanks? I know you are just being nice.
Leon: Really, you do. You should transfer to Angie's class.
Violetta: What? You don't like my awesome dance moves?
We both chuckle.
Leon: Obviously I do. You are just waaaay too advanced for us.
I giggle and tuck a stray stand of hair behind my ear.
Leon: Well I gotta go. I'd love to do a duet with you sometime.
Violetta: I'd like that too.
He smiled at me with that cute dimpled smile and left.
Eep.
Lesson learnt: We all have a special talent that we don't know of, we just have to try to find it...No matter how hard it is.😉
