Dance Of The Black Swan

My sweat is all over my face as I sitted  on the floor curling my legs for me to remove my pointe shoes. I practice enoughed for this day, I also need to rest for me to gain strength for tomorrow's preparation for the upcoming event of Zeneca Ballet.Sighing, I rested my back on the wall while staring the white face towel hanged on the ballet barre inside this room. I don't have the strength anymore to stand up, that's why I didn't wipe my sweat yet. Maybe later, I just need to breath evenly.I lean the back of my head on the wall for me to feel more comfortable and  close my eyes while my right arm is resting on my right knee feeling the silence inside the dance studio.  But then, the door open harshly creating an unwanted sound causing my brows to furrowed."Anna!" yelled by the familiar voice of a woman followed by the sound of her heavy footsteps.I don't need to open my eyes to figure out who was it. It was definitely my sister Aliah.

"What the hell are you talking about?!" I exclaimed glaring at him with my gritted teeth."I guess you're still not aware of what is happening" he stated in his manly voice sounding so foreign in my ears."What do you mean?" I ask curiously but nervously. He take a step towards me and in every step that he made is so sure and intimidating and all I could do is to step back."Your father. He gave you to me in exchange of the sponsorship" he stated looking at me straight in my eyes. My lips tremble not wanting to believe him. Why would I believe him? I don't even know him personally. I just met him a while ago. He's lying, he's definitely lying. "My father will never do that" I retorted  shaking my head. "You're wrong honey, your father just sold you to me a while ago" he said in controlled voice"NO!" I shout, provoke with his sudden announcement.Daddy will never do that to me. He will never

Pieces of broken glasses are scattered on the floor. Daddy is standing near the corner table while Mommy Adeline is in the middle of the living room holding a sharp long piece of broken glass.I was dragged back to my reverie when a blood drops on the floor continously."Dad!" I shout in panicked and immediately run towards them."Stop right there Svanna" Dad stop me in strict voice while looking at Mommy Adeline."Mommy Adie..." I whisper under my breath feeling terrified seeing the blood on the floor.Mommy Adeline is obviously wounded, seeing her how she grip the sharp broken glass is enough for me to conclude. What is happening? Are they fighting ?"Do not take a step Svanna, you might harm your feet. The floor is not safe for you and to Aliah" Dad said seriously I look at Mommy Adeline, she's not saying anything and it's confusing me more."What's really happening Dad? What did you do to Mommy Adie?" I a

"Dad answer me!" I scream loudly while my tears are streaming down to my face."Don't raised your voice young woman! I'm still your father" he authoritatively stated and all I could do is to shake my head.Did he really betrayed me? Did he really gave me to Santorini for the sake of the sponsorship that he wanted? How could he do that to me? "I have nothing to explain Svanna, wipe your tears and go back to your room" he remark and turn his back on me. A sob escape in my mouth before I left his office, I even saw Aliah on the doorway but I just ignore her and run back to my room. I lock my door and slammed myself on the bed hugging the pillow to find comfort. But then no matter how I tried  to hug the pillow I used to be my shoulder to lean on, the heavy feeling on my chest just become difficult to handle. How could my father do that? He doesn't even explain his self. He should at least explain everything to me. I

We walk silently and every time the wind blows Vicenzo hand instantly rubbed my back slowly and I can't help but to frown because of discomfort. We walk for more seconds and stop when I saw the small ballerina statue that was place in front of the grave of my mother.Automatically my lips curved into a smile and walk closer."It's been a long time Mom" I greeted with a smile and sitted on the ground "I'm sorry, I didn't planned my visit that's why I don't have flowers with me" I smilingly mutter My hand trace her name that was carved on the stone. Dad doesn't want me to visit her, I don't know her reason but he's not allowing me to visit Mom even on her death anniversary. "I'm a prima ballerina now. Dad permitted me to dance in the famouse Zeneca Theater, and it feel so great. I was like floating" I said chuckling  pulling the grass on the ground.The night breeze is giving me comfort although I'm shivering a little.&n
