Life Is A Dance Quote Novels & Stories

"Huwag mo na siyang isipin! Sayaw na lang tayo!" Hinila ako ni Jo patungo sa dance floor. Noong una, nahihiya pa ako since hindi ako sanay, pero nang magandahan ako sa beat ng music, hinayaan ko na lang ang katawan ko na gumalaw. Itinapon ko ang lahat ng stress. Ikinembot ko ang lahat ng sakit. Nakipagsabayan ako sa mga taong nandoon na tanging kasiyahan lang din ang hanap.

Isang mapaglarong ngiti ang umukit sa labi ko nang matanaw ang pagtagis ng kanyang bagang. I bowed my head to bid goodbye, pero natigilan ako nang humigpit ang hawak niya sa braso ko kaya nag-angat muli ako ng tingin sa kanya. Nakaangat ang gilid ng kanyang labi bago ngumisi. “I said. Let. Us. Dance. That’s not a question, baby.” Nagkatitigan kami, parehong hindi kumukurap. Marahas akong napabuga ng maraming hangin nang talikuran siya para ilapag ang hawak na wine glass sa malapit na bilog na lamesa.

AFTER DINNER, nag-start na ang live band. Couples were moving to the dance floor. I was about to excuse myself—check on the dessert service, make sure everything was perfect—when Levi spoke. "Dance with me first." Napatigil ako. "What?" "One dance. You've been working all evening. Take a break. Dance with me." His hand was extended. Waiting. Ang expression niya—serious pero may something else. Hopeful? Nervous?

Umirap siya sa akin. Hindi na ako nagsalita. Bumalik kami sa dancefloor. Hindi naman ako madalas na talagang sumasayaw para makahanap ng lovelife. Si Jane ang ganoon. I only dance when I'm so drunk. Hindi para maghanap ng lovelife dahil nakatatak sa isip ko si Clyde noon.

“Chloe, the music is perfect and the moment is tempting. May I have the honor to have this dance with you?” Oh… a dance! I like that!

“Mrs. Cruz, may I have this dance?” She chuckled. “Yes, you may, Mr. Cruz.” Nang maiyapos niya sa leeg ko ang mga braso, sumabay siya sa kanta habang titig na titig sa mga mata ko. “I’ve loved you forever, in a lifetimes before…” She smiled. “I give you my word, I give you my heart, this is the battle we won…” I closed my eyes as I listened to her sweet voice. Yes. I picked this song for this dance, only to hear her give life to the lyrics. The vow we didn’t even say on our wedding, the promise of a lifetime that we never had the chance to start in a romantic way, the love that blossomed in an unexpected way…

Wala kaming ibang nakikita ngayon kung hindi ay kung gaano namin kaya pang mahalin ang isa't isa. "I can't wait to dance with you at our wedding, and every anniversary after that. A lifetime of dances, just you and me." dagdag pa niya. Randam ko ang malumanay niyang paghagod sa likuran ko. And those smile of him keeping my heart secure. ​ "And I can't wait to see what song our life together will be. I have a feeling it's going to be beautiful."

The glow coming from the chandelier makes the dance floor romantic. “Let’s dance,” kalaunan ay yaya sa akin ni Lucian nang makita niyang pinagmamasdan ko ang mga nagsasayaw. Agad akong umiling. “No, it’s fine,” mahina kong tanggi. “I’m not asking you, Scarlet. I want to dance. Let’s go.”

Minsan lang may magyaya sa akin na sumayaw kaya hindi ko na papalampasin pa. “Just enjoy the moment with me. Eyes on me and feel the song .Promise, you’ll remember this everynight you sleep,” mahinhin nyang wika at alam kong nasa akin ang kanyang tingin. “Tsk! Ba’t mukhang nanginginig ka yata? It was your firstime, huh?” “Opo.” “Me too.” “Ha?” “It was my first time to ask a girl to dance with me, inshort, you’re the lucky one.”

"Don't be, Nazi. Just dance like you usually do and make sure to do better so that you won't lose your life." I only shook my head. Coincidentally, it was now my time to dance and the music switched to a new one. I let out a deep sigh before mumbling to myself. "For my mother and my brother, Fierio," I said and now emerged from the back of the curtains. When I know started moving my hips to the rhyme of the music, I could feel my hair turning dancing as well. You could say that it has its own life, trying to follow through my rhyme.
