CAI HUA
________

"You need to focus Hua!"

My ballet instructor lectured me. Practically spending every time I have to practice on my choreograph, I still
can't focus. "You've been, very spaced out recently Hua," She patted my shoulder. "Is something bothering you?"

I smiled at her as I nodded. "Thank you for worrying about me, but I'm sure I'm fine." She gave a confused look on her face, almost that she might of didn't believe me. But soon returned practicing with me on our feet positions.

[5 hours later]

"Just make sure to stretch out your leg more when dancing as you do the fouette." Was the last thing my instructor said before she walked out the door. Feeling exhausted and ill as well as my feet ached, I collapsed on the wooden floor as she left the room.

FLASHBACK
________

"You have to lift your leg much more to complete this developpes a la seconde." My teacher responded bluntly to my performance. It was her, Lilia Baranovskaya. A former prima ballerina of the Bolshoi Ballet.

If moving all the way from China to Russia to be taught by the famous Lilia Baranovskaya, how I thought it was a dream.

But, practice was very difficult and exhausting for every 13 year old here. If you didn't keep up with your own level, you would be sent down to the level below you.

Practicing and practicing and practicing, I had never given up. I was going to do this developpes a la seconde.

Finally after completing a full developpes a la seconde, Lilia gave a satisfied and a kind smile.

"You've distanced yourself from being a prima ballerina, but you've evolved into your own form of beauty, Cai Hua."
