https://Voice.club - Tatiana flutters down slowly, slowly, her gold and crimson silks enhancing the impression of falling leaves. This new ballet is an allegory on endings, and it is breaking her heart.
As she stares out over the crowd, tears threaten. Why does it always come to this? Tatiana is strong, yet memories break her. Then she smiles as she sees it.
The hat! The fedora is absurdly bright, sequined and a shocking glittery purple. The best news is it sits proudly above her father’s head. Thrilled she know he supports her!
Tatiana is devastated when she realizes that Papa is not here for support, but for ridicule. The sequined purple fedora is meant to humiliate. No wonder her mother had disappeared.
Back then, whenever she moved to the harmony of the music, she could put people under a spell, but not this time. She has lost her desire to dance.
