Maybe I shouldn’t have quit dancing. (tried, half joking half serious)
Nothing! We should be worried about our audition. Let’s rehearse section 9 again. (let her anxiety slipped a bit but regain compose)
But if I… if I don't make it… (pleading, scared, hopeful?)

Should I get you a new one? That one is starting to leak. (lightly concern but more nonchalant)
shoot I gotta go! Don’t forget channel 7 at 9 alright? (in a rush)
I do what I do because I want to… And so should you. ( girl locked in, firm, inspiring)
- The narration is poems that are coming out of the song/ play they are performing.
- I want to try to imitate a feeling of Khon (Thai Mask dane ) Narration singing https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ocm6GwyerlE
- you don't have to sing like them! it is just something I want to try but if it doesn't work out we can just read poem normally/ slam poetryhttps://youtu.be/qYAiYMlOCI4?si=9kPqlUILDUs0hLl- this is an example of slam poetry i have found. I want to aim for a slower pace

buried in the ashes, i was born of a flame. i turned cold like ice , but everyone knew my name.
the blinding lights begged me to forget my own ache, i had to tell myself there was too much at stake.
yet, a flower wilts under the heat of the sun, a flower rots, still, even if i am to run.
