Today's the day of the talents night.
All of our classmates are in full support as we are joining the talents night.
"Charlie and Ellie, show us what you've got. We expect that you will win this talents night!" Thomas said.
"Yes we will!" I said.
"But guys, all we've got to do is to enjoy our performance in the stage. Now, I believe that whenever we win or lose, we will never care about it. Our passion here is to show and to share our passion and talent. That's it. Win or lose, we'll be happy." Ellie smiled.
"But still, we are rooting for you!" Thomas said.
"Thank you everyone!" I said.
We are ready for the outcome, whatever it is, we are really ready.
That evening, the amphitheatre is packed with students who want to see the potential talents of the students of Gorge High School. Our classmates are in the front, eager to watch us.
At the backstage...
"Be confident always, Ellie! Tonight is our night to show what we're capable of!" I said. I'm wearing a coat and tie.
"Yes I will." Ellie said. And we're prepared for tonight's performance.
All of a sudden, my mum and dad arrived. They're watching the talents night.
"Mum! Dad!" I said, and I hugged them.
"My son, we are here to support you. We will be proud of you!" my mum said.
This time, I began to cry. Dad wiped all of my tears away.
"Thank you. I love you mum and dad." And I hugged my parents again.
"Go and show them that you are the best among them!" My dad said.
While on the changing room, I noticed that Ellie closed her eyes for many minutes and she began to pray. I closed my eyes and I joined her in prayer. This is Ellie's prayer:
"Lord God, tonight, give us the energy and the determination to finish our performance. Give us the passion. And Lord, whenever we win or lose, this is nothing but for your glory. Thank you God, and make our performance successful, Amen." And after that, we nodded at each other.
We are also watching the other students who presented their talents. Let me mention them.
Five guys in a band with long hair, but the vocalist is off-tune. The lead guitarist broke the string of his guitar during the show. *Buzzer sounds*
A guy did some magic tricks, but the final stunt failed.
Seven girls and seven boys did an interpretative dance, but the lights kept on flashing during their performance. That was awkward.
And so many more. Some of them are really talented, but some just joined but became a practical joke on-stage.
And finally, it's our turn. No one's nervous, even Ellie.
All of the rehearsals and the hard-work that we've done flashed before our very eyes.
And as she signaled to start, I started to play the piece. And we could feel ourselves that we are in the empty auditorium, enjoying the things that we are doing. This time, we played with much more intensity, flair and we did nothing but to enjoy our performance.
In the middle of our performance, Ellie and I felt like that we are in the highest part of the skies.
And as we've finished the performance, Ellie and I bowed to the people. The people who are watching gave us a standing ovation, same goes with the judges. The claps of the people, it's giving us creeps. The people loved our performance, because we put our passion in it. Ellie was overwhelmed and she hugged me. I hugged her too. I held her hand, and with our arms raised together, we gave a final bow and exited the stage.
As we get to the dressing room, Ellie was so happy! Same goes with me!
"Charlie, we did it! We did it without failures! Yes!" Ellie said.
"It's because we did it with passion and dedication." I said.
"Thank you for making me realize that I must show my talents to every people. I'm gonna do it seriously, Charlie. Are you with me?" Ellie asked, and she held my face.
"I'm with you." I said. And this time, we shared another passionate kiss in agreement.
We both love the music and this is what we want. We will continue to share our talents to every people. And may my story serve as an inspiration to every aspiring people who wants to share his/her talent to the world.
The end.
Thanks for reading this! To God be the highest glory.
