"kriya - kriya - its time to get up, you're going to be late" the voice of
my mother wakes me up. She hammers against the door and screams my
name.
"I'm up mum, gonna be down in a few minutes" I tell her and she leaves.
Oh god, as I looked at the watch I understood why my alarm didn't go off. It was
natural for my mum to wake me always half an hour before I actually had to get
up. Before resting a few more minutes in my bed I finally shift my body out if it
and go straight to the bathroom. The weird feeling in my stomach tells me its
real, yes today I'm going to dance in front of the judges. Maybe I'm going to be
touring with the ballet theatre after today. Maybe.
I quickly brush my long dark-brown hair and wash my face. I highlight my brown
eyes with some light make-up and put some my favourite lip-gloss on my lips. I
put on some slim jeans and my favourite white blouse add a necklace and
some armrings and grab my bag and walk down into the kitchen.
"You look nice, but close that button on your blouse" my mum greats me as I
enter the kitchen.
"Yeah mum" I mumble and do it slowly.
She always tells me how to dress and what to say and how to act. Sometimes I
get annoyed but I figure its the best not to argue with her today. She gestures
me to sit down and puts the plate with my breakfast in front of me. I take a sip
from my orange juice and start to eat.
"Do you remember your choreography?" my mum asks me.
"Yes mum, I trained hard for today, remember?" I answer a bit annoyed.
"Don't snap at me" she looks at me with her serious look and I quickly focus on
eating again.
"Remember to smile all the time, and please don't forget to pull your hair back
into a tight pigtail, judges don't like it when your hair flies around!"
I nod as she continues.
"I'll drop you at the arena and call me when you finished. Don't forget to listen to
everything the judges say to you and don't be late, that wouldn't make a good
first impression."
I nod again.
"Do you want to take something against the nervousness?"
"No I think I can handle it without your medicine." I shake my head.
"Okay, get ready then, I'm going to drive you now, so you wont be late." she
rushes out of the room and I get up and put the plate into the dishwasher.
I quickly go through my imaginary check-list and pray silently that I haven't
forgotten anything as I put on my black ballerinas and lock the door as I step
outside.
My mum already started the car and waits for me in the slip road. I'm glad that
the drive to the auditirium only takes a few minutes, otherwise I would prefer to go
there cause I really can't stand my mum when she acts like my boss. Well she is
kind of my boss, she arranged everything and she forces me to dance today
and she pushed me since I was little. But still I'm 18 now and I know how to
behave and the most important thing I know how to dance.
-
As we arrive , my mum gives me a kiss on the cheek, wishes me
good luck and releases me out of the car. I grab my bag and quickly go to the
entrance. I hear my mum driving away, but I refuse to look back. I take a deep
breath and step towards the desk where I have to say my name and get my
audition number.
"kriya ghai, 18 - Salinas, California" I tell the lady on the entrance and
she tips something into her computer. She looks at me after a few seconds and
her eyes go up and down my body. I start to feel uncomfortable as she hands
me a sheet of paper.
"Here is all the information you need, you number is on top of the page."
"Thank you" I answer with a shy smile.
"Your locker is down the hall on the left side, the room where you can warm up
is on the right, try to be at least 10 minutes before your performance at the
arena where you perform."
I nod and want to thank her again as she interrupts me.
"Do you have your music on a CD or on you MP3 player?" She asks me while
searching for something on the desk.
"I have in on both" I answer quickly and she nods relieved.
"Give it to the man dressed in black at the entrance of the bog arena and he'll
bring it to the player."
I nod and grab my bag after another "Thank you" I make my way down the hall to
find my locker.
I feel my heart beating louder as I hear the music from the arena and I realize it
is real. I will be dancing in front judges in a few hours. I look down at the paper
to check my time and a big sigh escapes my lips as I notice I have more than
an hour left to get ready.
-
The time passes by really quickly and I decide to warm up and go through my
routine a few times before actually entering the big arena. I get my ear phones
into my ears and start to dance. Nothing can ever take that feeling away from
me, the feeling when you dance. I feel so happy and free while flying over the
dance floor, I have never ever felt this feeling while doing anything else. I stop to
watch some of the other girls in the room and I get nervous as I see they're all
extremely good and their ballet looks so majestic and professional. My heart
beats faster as I realize my own dance moves aren't as classic as the dance
moves from the other girls, but I try to push the thoughts away and focus on my
own performance.
A glance at the big clock tells me I have 15 minutes left and I decide to head
over to the Arena. I grab my CD and walk towards the entrance. A man dressed
in black greets me friendly and asks for my music and I hand it to him with a
insecure smile.
"Thank you" he says in a British accent and I smile "Wait over there, they'll call
your number when you can go on the stage"
I nod and go the the place where he told me. I begin to stretch myself and keep
my muscles warm. My hearts beats faster with every minute and I can feel my
palms getting sweaty. As they finally call my name I clear my throat, take a deep
breath and walk out on the stage. A bright light shines right into my face and I
blink a few times until I can notice the judges in front of me.
"Welcome Miss ghai" on of the judges says.
"Hello" I try to say confident but I end up sounding very uncomfortable.
"Well we really appreciate your audition video and whenever your ready you
can start and show us your choreography" a woman says.
I nod and get into my starting position. The music starts and I start to focus on
my performance. I immediately forget that I dance in front of the judges and the
dance moves appear to take over me. I'm in my own world, my own fairytale. I
try to accomplish every move perfectly and I force myself to smile even if some
dance moves hurt like shit. My feet are always perfectly stretched and my hands
move perfect to the music. I bend down and jump, doing the splints in the air, I
smile even brighter as I end up standing almost perfect on the floor again. I can
feel the music, the music takes over me and I spin and do my Pirouettes almost
perfect.
A deep sight leaves may lips as my performance ends and I stay in front of the
judges, they all take notes down on their sheets and smile at me friendly.
"Thank you Miss ghai, you'll get informed after the last one auditioned"
I nod and rush outside the arena, I sit down in front of my locker and try to get
my breath back. My heart is beating like crazy and my hair is still in that tight
pigtail. My mum would be proud I think with a smile as I take out my phone to
call her.
-
An hour later the judges call us into the arena and I stand there with the other
girls waiting for them to tell us if we made it or not. They call one girl after the
other and I'm getting more nervous whenever they don't call my name.
"The last person we want to take is Rosalie Mose - congratulations" one of the
judges says and my heart stops beating.
It takes a few seconds until I realize I didn't make it and I have trouble to hold
back the tears. I can see girls crying beside me and some girls are smiling
from one ear to the other. I force myself to smile as the judges tell us we're
finished and we can leave. I go back to the exit as the man dressed in back
smiles at me.
"I think you were great" he tells me with his British accent. "Different but great"
he says as he walks into the arena. I nod and force myself to smile, but I fail in
hiding my disappointment.
I turn around to see him talking to the judges and they nod a few times and talk
to each other. I let out a deep sigh and turn around to walk outside as I hear
them calling for me.
My heart stops the second time in less than half an hour and I can't believe my
ears.
"Go get outside" a girl tells me with a friendly smile and pushes me through the
entrance.
I slowly walk towards the judges.
"You called me" I say my voice nearly unhearable.
"Yes, Miss ghai" one of the judges says "We are actually really sad to let you
go, you are a very talented young girl, with an awesome body and more than
enough talent and control over her body."
I nod and force myself to smile.
"But unfortunately we are looking for some really strict ballet dancers and we
couldn't find that in you. You are extremely talented but we also could see that
ballet isn't the kind of dance that totally approves you"
I nod again, biting my lips and playing with my hands.
"Anyway Mr. Brown just gave us the idea to send you to another audition." the
Judge gestures to the man dressed in black.
My eyes opened wide and I looked at them confused.
"He is currently working with a band and they're rehearsing for a new tour where
they need background dancers. I think you would be perfect for them and we
would like you to audition for them."
I couldn't speak, my emotions were going crazy at that moment and I was glad
as the judge continued talking.
"The audition is at the other big arena next door and we already showed them
your video, they like you and would like to take you for a try out."
I stop breathing and look at them with my mouth wide open, as soon as I realize
that I stand there with my mouth wide open I clap my hand in front of it. The
Judges laugh at me friendly and the man dressed in black comes towards me.
"I'll take you to the arena, they're already waiting" he says and garbs my arm.
I mumble a quick "Thank you" towards the judges and run after Mr. Brown.
