💫 Prologue – Whispers of Yesterday

Before the music faded and the lights dimmed, there was a stage —
and on that stage, they danced like they were invincible.

Back then, time was measured in routines and heartbeats. Every glance held unspoken truths, every step a confession too bold to speak aloud. Rey and Kriya — fire and grace — had once been the heartbeat of St. Louis Dance Academy. A connection forged not just in choreography, but in something deeper. Something they never truly named.

But dreams don’t always survive reality.

When she left, she didn’t just walk away from the academy — she walked out of his world. And though Rey tried to bury her memory beneath accolades and applause, she remained — in the rhythm of every song, in the silence after every performance.

He never said it aloud, but part of him was always dancing with a ghost.

Now, years later, as the echoes of the past begin to stir once more, fate — or perhaps unfinished business — pulls them back to where it all began.

And the question lingers in the air like the last note of a song:

Can love find its rhythm again?
