The day of the competition , both of them practiced one more time just before their turn. "i think we're good to go." Ivy said once they've done the practice. 'I'm nervous.' Jasmine wrote. Ivy giggled as she walked to Jasmine. "Same here." She said.

'you don't look nervous though?' Jasmine wrote again. "Nervousness won't enthrall the audience. We wouldn't want that." Ivy said but Jasmine still looks nervous. "I was going to give you this after the competition but seeing you nervous...here !" Ivy said as she took out a piece cake from her bag. It was red velvet in flavor. Though Ivy didn't know if Jasmine would like it or not , but Ivy bought what she liked anyways.

"happy birthday , Jasmine. Now eat up ! Cake always makes everyone feel better." Ivy said , flashing a huge grin on her face. Jasmine took the cake and smiled as she opened the box , revealing a tasty looking cake. She took a bite of the cake and her eyes widened in delight.

She nodded in approval that it was good and continued eating the cake. 'Do you want some?' Jasmine gestured. "Nope ! That's all for you !" Ivy said. "While you eat your cake, I'm going to change onto my dress okay?" Ivy said as Jasmine nodded. Ivy ran to the changing room whilst taking her bag with her.

A few minutes later, Ivy came back to the waiting room happily. She was dressed in a long white dress which showed her shoulders and her hair was tied up in a bun.

"How do i look?" Ivy asked grinning ear to ear. "Magnifique." Jasmine mouthed returning the grin.

"Now , we have the trio masquerade ! Next , we have the Magnifiques !" A woman said through the mic. "Oh shoot, let's go to backstage ! We're next." Ivy said as Jasmine nodded and followed Ivy. Luckily she was already dressed.

After the trios performed, everyone cheered in excitement. "Now , we have the Magnifiques !" The MC said. Both Jasmine and Ivy shared eye contact and nodded. "Let's do this." Ivy whispered as they walked out the stage.

Jasmine sat down on the chair of the piano and played the melodies remembering to pour all her emotions into it. And Ivy too , started dancing gracefully. Her dress flowed from side to side and the piano was getting stronger as time went by.

frustration was coming up.

And so both of them showed their frustrations. Towards both the piano and the dance. They were both in sync. Ivy's vast movements and Jasmine's finger which danced along the keys.

They were indeed a great pair.

Everyone was mesmerized by their performance. It was magnificent and it was way more than everyone could ever imagined. Nobody said a word, only the sound of the piano filled the room and everyone's eyes were looking at the emotional dance.

In the middle of the crowd , Jasmine's aunty was watching with teary eyes. She wished dearly that both her sister and her sister's husband was watching their daughter perform. She imagined how proud would they be. And how both of them would've boasted to their friends about their own daughter.

And Ivy's mother was too watching. She never knew that her daughter would dance so gracefully on stage. She felt all the guilt weigh on her shoulders as she bursted into tears silently. How she wished that her husband was still there with her. Then they could see the beautiful scenery.

As they finally finished performing , everyone started standing up and cheered whole-heartedly. It was a performance worth a life-time. It made everyone know their joy and sorrow.

They were successful on showing their sigh.

After they bowed down, they went back to their waiting room and celebrated. "We did it !" Ivy jumped happily. 'i'm glad that the audience loved it.' Jasmine wrote. "Me too. It was exciting to see them happy." Ivy said.

'this is the best birthday present i could've asked for. Thank you , Ivy Livingstone.'
