Cut Scene: Are You Sure?

*what am I doing...?* The music filled the room as she did her moves. An elder lady standing at the side, observing her.

"Poise!" The lady gave her a stare.

"Yes, ma'am." She answered as she straightened her posture.

Turning and twisting her limbs, her mind was almost blank.

*Are you sure you want this...?* A voice inside her mind asked.

*I don't know.* She answered in her mind.

"Focus!" The elder lady told her again.

"Yes, ma'am" She shook her head to clear her thoughts, only focusing on the steps she was told to do.

"Yes... yes... slow... and... a twist..." The lady recited the steps for her since they haven't practice that part.

Shaking her head, the elder lady stopped the music and the room became silent.

"You are not focused today. Is something bothering you?" The elder asked with no emotions.

"No, ma'am." The younger lowered her head, not wanting to face the elder, not wanting to show any emotions to this emotionless lady in front of her.

"Then get your mind to wake up. You're dancing like a dead body. Tell me... what does this music tell you?" The elder looked at her.

"To be free... to live freely without having to struggle. To be passionate with life..." She recited whatever she remembered when the elder lady was introducing the music.

"And you're a dead body now." The elder stopped her from talking.

"Sorry, ma'am" She apologized.

"Two minutes. Repeat the whole routine later. Do remember to bring back your wandering mind when we start." The elder lady said and left the room.

*Do you still want this...?* The voice asked her again.

She couldn't answer. Instead, she went back to practice after sipping a little water.
