I'm a famous dancer. Although I have a talent in singing, I never pursue that path because of my desire to follow the path that my mother did. I did everything to make my mother praise and look at me. Even just for a bit.
But in the end, neither did she even glance at me but she treated me like I never really existed.
From the start since I became aware of my surroundings, that was how she always treated me. It always feel like she never really want to have a child because she never spare me even just a bit of her time.
She would always left me to the Nanny that she hired to take care of me. She'd leave early in the morning and goes home late at night. And as a human being of course I long for her love and attention that's why I tried to practice dancing.
Dancing is her work, she's even famous to the point that her name is known almost around the world. And because I can't spend time with her, I would watch her videos and recordings and even live on the TV. That's when I started to learn dancing using all her videos as my reference on my moves.
Of course I manage to become a famous dancer myself after going through many obstacles. At the start, I only join in school contests then I also joined clubs. Those were one of the moments i was the happiest because while pursuing being a famous dancer, I slowly love dancing without realizing it myself.
I have never thought that while doing the things that i thought my mother would like me to do, I would also find the happiness that I never expected. But there is still the desire that wants to be acknowledge by my mother. So to do one more step to my dreams, I also joined tv contests.
It wasn't a good and smooth sail but still, I manage to make that dream came through little by little. And at the same time, I become numb and stop wishing for her attention anymore.
Because while I slowly reach that dream. I have never ever received a praise for everything that I did.
I was 19, I was one of the youngest people who became famous through dance. All the people showers me with lots of praises and congratulations but I didn't receive even a single word to the one that I have been dedicating it to.
I sacrifice a lot just to get here and it's all nothing to her.
I stopped thinking of those things because my break time is already finished. I stood and put the bottle on the chair. I'm inside a practice room that I bought in one of the buildings that is famous for it quality in selling practice rooms in the city. Mine is at the top of the building so you can view all the lights down the city and the big full moon tonight.
I'm practicing the dance that I made myself for the concert that I would have in few months. It's still not complete yet and I also made the song that I would use for it. It's a concert celebration for my birthday and it's theme is the Moon.
The song is already finished but the dance is still lacking specially in ending. And tonight I'm planning on deciding of what the last steps are as I stare at the full and bright moon.
I started humming then also stared dancing just like the calmness and brightness on the moon that it gives to the cold and dark night. I swayed my hips like the calm flow of waters that shines while reflecting the moon. Spin my body like how the wind blows.
I enjoyed every move that I did while I have a small smile on my lips. Then I close my eyes to feel the dance. The dance itself gives me peace and joy that makes me even more proud of myself. The sensation in gives feels different, it's just like dancing under the warm water while still having the smooth moves according to the steps.
The moon shone brightly as she dance every move until she complete everything.
She opened her eyes only to find herself in the place where she started while having the pose of the ending of the dance.
After finishing everything, she decided to go home to her condo in the opposite building she's at practicing.
But an unexpected things happen.
