"I think I will visit the Louvre Museum and the Palace of Versailles," Zenna said.
"Ah, I didn't go to the Palace of Versailles. I should tag along with you." Han Luo fluttered her eyelashes and started acting cute to make Zenna agree.
"Can I come as well?" Jared tested the waters.
"The more, the merrier." Zenna giggled.
Before they headed toward the back stage, the three of them put their hands on each other's shoulders and stood for a moment for the final encouragement.
Han Luo spoke with confidence, "We can do it. We will go onto the stage and nail it." Somehow, her confidence reached Jared and Zenna's hearts and calmed them down.
"Yes, we can do it!" Jared exclaimed with hope and assurance.
Zenna gathered some courage and declared, "We will win!"
Jared chose 'The Nutcracker' for his semifinal performance. The Nutcracker is an 1892 two-act ballet.
