Chapter 89 Reach For The

Stars, Hadley

The destination took Hadley by surprise.

Though it was her first visit, she was well aware of its reputation.

Lightning Dance Studio was recognized as the premier modern dance troupe in Srixby, celebrated not only locally but globally.

They had even graced the stage in Blathe once.

Regrettably, their performances were notoriously expensive and tickets disappeared almost instantly, leaving Hadley without a chance to attend a show.

“This place…”

Stepping from the car, Hadley lingered at the entrance, shooting Eric a puzzled look. What was his reason for bringing her here?

With a casual tilt of his head towards the building, Eric led the way.

“Come, follow me.”

“Alright.”

Hesitating briefly, she decided to follow him.

Though unaware of Eric’s intentions, the mere mention of Lightning Dance Studio sparked a blend of anticipation and curiosity within her.

Before she came back to Srixby, Hadley had researched the troupe and even considered auditioning.

However, the daunting details she uncovered had dampened her spirits.

The troupe’s leader did not hold open auditions.

Rumors even circulated that they operated a specialized training program for young talent, rarely if ever hiring externally.

Disheartened, Hadley had abandoned the thought.

Now, as she followed Eric, she realized he was guiding her toward the backstage area.

No show was scheduled for tonight.

The rehearsal space buzzed with activity; some dancers were perfecting their routines while others honed their solo performances. Observing them, Hadley felt a surge of excitement.
