The Direction Where the Sun Rises
Part 8
I dropped by the Just Dance studio to see everyone practice. It had been a while. When I got there, I was greeted to the steady thump of music and the smell of sweat. I could feel the energy and adrenaline in the practice room.
My heart always fluttered when I came here. After a loud round of all the members greeting me, I sat against the wall and watched then practice. When would I be able to dance again? I was impatient and thrilled at the prospect of dancing again. I thought of how transfixed I was watching that man dance. Would I be able to dance like him one day?
Someone sat down next to me. I looked over and realized it was that girl. She poked my shoulder and got comfortable next to me.
"Where've you been?" she asked, smiling. "Were you having fun all by yourself?"
I looked at our reflections in the mirror as we sat next to each other against the wall.
"How have you been?" I asked her.
She made a face, as if to say that my rhetorical question was way too vague.
"Have I told you about my mom?" I started. She heard this story so many times before, but she enjoyed hearing it and never complained.
"She must be living a happy life, right? Then, I'm okay. Even if we never meet again, I'll be okay if we both are happy."
She stared at me, not saying anything.
"and I thought you looked like my mom, but you don't. I've figured that out now."
She looked a little confused at that. I laughed a little before carrying on.
"So, when do you depart?" I asked. "Wait, actually. Congratulations. It's your dream to go overseas and dance."
She broke eye contact with me and bowed her head. "Sorry. I should've told you first."
"if you're sorry, buy me food later and I'll throw you a nice farewell party."
I gave her a big smile and started fussing over her.
"let's meet again someday as famous dancers. Work hard! Because I'm not gonna let you outdo me!"
She nodded. We sat against the wall like that for some time after, watching the others dance.
