Chapter 1: Dance&Hurt
CHAPTER 1
"1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8" I can't even count on my fingers how much I've heard this countdown this day alone, a bit more and I might just go crazy.
"Yah, Kyu look alive or at least try to look like you're enjoying it we'll be finished soon. There's only an hour left you can do it." Ugh it's so easy for you to say because you're naturally gifted in dancing while I'm already worn out after an hour in. "Water break! I might literally die of thirst, my throat has dried like the Sahara desert." I then replied clearly annoyed.
We then started dancing once again from the beginning, the sound of the shoes colliding with the floor eminent, but I just toned it down inside my mind, as this time I'm actually trying my best getting motivated by the fact that it'll end soon.

"I thought I was gonna die in there Toru, you even kept on targeting my style of dancing and scolding me infront of our team it was embarrassing." hurt clear on my voice.
Toru looked at me then laughed. This b*tch if only I can smack you right now. "Be thankful that I'm smaller than you or else you would've dropped to the floor right about now."
"Now now calm down bro, you know the saying business is business, in our case we have to keep things professional, we can't let our friendship be an excuse in getting biased. Our team might think that I'm enabling those close to me to just slack." He explained. That makes sense, some might even hold a grudge towards me if that's the case.
"Oh that was fast" I just realized that I'm now infront of my apartment complex. "See you tomorrow. I guess. Bye Toru be careful there are a bunch of thugs getting reported near your house" We said our goodbyes and parted ways.
I went inside the complex and made my way towards the elevator. The way up was quite nice since there's no one else in the elevator but me, which is rare since the building I live in is crowded. Probably because it's cheap to live here compared to other apartment out there.
After getting inside my unit, the events of the day replayed on my head, quite notably the part where I was in a dance practice with the team wherein I was scolded infront of my friends. To be honest I was upset with what Toru did and said but it actually makes sense that's why I have to improve myself so that won't happen again. I don't want to risk him getting disappointed at me, we literally faced many struggles before as we have been friends for two years already.
"Ah sh*t" I almost forgot to write my background for a job I recently applied to, they asked me to make a more detailed background yesterday through email and I forgot about it because of the practice I had this day.

"There finally done, I hope I get accepted I badly need the money since dancing ain't paying for my bills." I then gone to bed early for I'm already worn out and done for the day.
Author's note: I hope y'all like it, I'm still new to writing and I accept criticisms and suggestions but please be kind, you don't have to have money to be kind so at least just do that.
