I kiss Josh goodbye, Theresa does the same with Rich , Then Theresa and I walk hand in hand to first period the only class we have together dance with Ms. Brown. Hi Ms. Brown we exclaim, how was your summer? Considering I spent most of it on stage tiring she says. I laugh , but inside I'm a little bit discouraged. I want to be as good as Ms. Brown one day and I have my audition for the Alvin Ailey Company in a week I've been training for months. I really am unsure if I'll make it. Josh says they'd be foolish not to take me while they had the chance. Im not sure though. Tessa! Ms. Brown calls. Yes Ma! She says I've been calling you for the last five minutes! Were you daydreaming again? No Ma i wasn't sorry. Ok baby head to the barre. Yeah Ma ok. She says nevermind Tessa come centre, Everyone else to the barre. I head centre, she says demonstrate a simple plea for me. I did it. She says straighten that torso Tessa do it again. I repeat the task good girl. Now if you cant do exactly what your peer just did well your going to be the jackass with a missing credit cause you failed dance. They laughed, she said okay now lets do a simple combination. Tendu front, side , back , side. Got it ? Yes Ms. B. Okay well that wasn't bad she says. Lets do a sequence across the floor and then your dismissed. She says Tessa chasse twice, step leap . I want a straddle she says. Yeah Ma . As I jump to leap in the air I feel my skirt fly up in the air and the wind fly through my hair and turn my neat bun into a flowing ponytail. Everyone starts to clap . I bow with a small smile. Alright everybody now. Everyone went we clapped out and put back on our outfits and head out the door. I hug Theresa we say bye and I head to my second period class. MATH! Ughh
