Luca could sense that Yuri was unhappy, but she did not say anything. She focused on watching the performance.

Rainie was the star ballerina. She attracted everyone's attention the moment she stepped on the stage.

The expressiveness of her facial expressions and her skilled elegant dance moves were a display of the dancing skills she had picked up over the years.

Luca picked up the camera and kept taking photos of Rainie dancing on the stage. At the same time, she noticed that something was wrong as she was sitting near the stage.

The stage was bright enough, and that was why Luca did not switch on the flash. It did not affect the photos' quality either.

The ballet performance lasted for 40 minutes. Luca heard Thea talking to Yuri after the dancers made their curtain calls, “Mommy, I want to get into the dance academy too. Sign me up please."

Yuri shot a glance at Luca. She was lowering her head and fiddling with the camera as though she was not paying attention to what the kid was saying.

Yuri lowered her head and comforted her daughter. "Thea, be good. We'll talk about this after New Year."

"Why should we wait until New Year? We'll be having winter break soon. Mommy, if Rainie can perform on stage, so can I," Thea said competitively.

Yuri felt helpless when her daughter said so.

Not everyone could enter the dance academy Rainie was attending. The kids may take it as a hobby class, but the teachers in the academy would only select the candidates who had naturally given talents and were willing to work hard.

Thea's ballet was not exceptionally good back then. Yuri went along with her daughter and signed her up for the admission interview. If her daughter was able to get into the academy, it would make Yuri look good as her mother.

However, Thea failed to pass the interview.

The teacher claimed that Thea's foundation was not strong enough, and they could not see any dancing talent in Thea. They suggested Thea head to other dancing schools to continue improving her dancing skills and wait for the next interview.
