Chapter : Disaster Time

Chapter : Disaster Time

The ballet presentation began under the music of Tchaikovsky with Swan Lake and we came out in the front row in perfect dehors, I felt like a fish in water in each fluid movement along with the soft music, the light reflecting us as if it indicated us where we should go, making the entire presentation magical.

At the end of the first part I left the stage so that the second act could enter. I was supposed to enter along with the others in the middle. I took advantage of peeking out slightly to see between the people and I was filled with pride when I saw my mother there next to me. Luciano, Erin and to my surprise Justin; I really didn't think he would come, Hades was a few rows ahead sitting quietly enjoying the act, I was excited that he was here watching me do what he loved.

At the end of the event, the applause filled the stage like the roses, seeing my family who always supported me coming to my presentations filled me with pride, but seeing Hades standing applauding with his proud gaze fixed on me was something completely new. For me it made me feel out of this planet.

We went to the dressing rooms to change, all talking about how well everything went and the ideas for the next presentations, Angelina caught everyone's attention by raising her hand; she was always the call sign for her to tell us to shut up.

"Excellent presentation girls," said Angelina, "remember to take your things, take this week off, next week we will start again with rehearsals for the international presentation with Chopin."

A new and extended work with the melody of the pianist Frédéric Chopin, that excited me, I loved his music.

I hoped that it wouldn't hurt me with classes or that I would at least be able to do both by getting work done, I'd see what it would do.

I changed my clothes into something more normal and took my things, I wanted to go with my family, say hello to Erin, my mom, Luciano, Justin and Hades, but the latter had told me to stay in the dressing room, so I had to listen to him. because I knew something was happening; something I wasn't aware of yet.

Now that I thought about it, I hadn't seen Gabriel in public. Why had he asked me to give him a ticket if he wasn't going to come? Or... had he come but I hadn't seen him?

"Nube, what are you waiting for?" Angelina said when she saw that I stayed sitting in the dressing room when everyone left.

"I... can I wait here?" I asked.

Angelina raised an eyebrow with a sarcastic smile and said:

"No. I'm going to close," she showed me the key, "are you going to clean the theater or what?"

Uhm, I got up and approached the door.

"Sometimes she was very hateful." I commented.

"Always dear." said Angelina.

I left the dressing room and Angelina closed the door and went down the hallway, I hugged myself looking everywhere, Demitri wasn't coming and the entire hallway was alone, so I walked to the back door of the theater thinking that maybe Demitri wasn't there. I was there and that's why I hadn't arrived.

I was afraid to be in these places alone.

Calm down, don't be paranoid.

I barely went out a little, the cold of the night made me shiver, I noticed that all the people in the distance were outside the theater, uhm, I think I would have to go out and go with them to see if I could find my family or Hades, I barely took a step outside when suddenly, someone covered my mouth with a cloth full of the strong smell of disinfectant and I felt my vision begin to blur, I became dizzy, beginning to lose consciousness, when they dragged me into what It seemed to be a car and then I only heard the screeching of the tires as they took off at full speed down the avenue and I lost consciousness.
