Chapter 4

It has been two months since the confusion and things seemed as calm and peaceful as before, Angel had even managed to get a part-time job in a cafeteria, of course, only on Wednesday, Friday and Saturday. in the first two weeks, Angel took first place in the entire school in the weekly tests, since then, she has only been in first place.

Angel was attentive to math classes, until a student enters the room with a “bombastic” news.

- classmates!!! the main Light Moon tournament starts now !!! Our college will be playing the basketball tournament against the main rival, Hyuga !!!

"Wow, that makes such a difference in my life ..." at this point, Angel did her best not to say anything unnecessary.

- we should all support the team with everything we have !!! So the pretty girls who are interested in being cheerleaders, come this afternoon at 14 in the pavilion for an audition !!!

All the girls in the room started to get excited.

- eh ...I think that if one of these students in the class is selected it will be a shame for the school. - complains a boy with his group who laughs.

- at least let's do something, you idiot !!! You weren't even accepted on the team as a reservation !!! screams one of the girls.

- shut up idiot!!! - answers the boy.

- shipped. - Amber whispers in the ear of Angel who laughed.

- hey! Angel Yao right? Not interested in participating? - asks the haired girl on Channel, assessing Angel's face.

- I don't like pompoms.

- you can be thrown over the top!

- I don't like having to trust people with my life.

- but-

- I don't like being around others, I don't know how to dance and I don't want to be dancing in front of hundreds of people.

- ah ... You can be one of the trainers too! you don’t need pompons and you don’t always present yourself! - Angel was beginning to think she had no choice but to be direct.

-... I'm not interested. - Angel says with a straight face. But it seems that the other was not listening.

- This will be awsome!!! I hope to see you all there, okay ?! - says the girl smiling and running away.

- what is her mental problem ...? How human? asks Angel rhetorically.

- come on, it will be fun! - says the smiling blonde.

after eating in the cafeteria, the two went to the gym, which was full of girls. Angel insisted to her friend that she didn't want to become a cheerleader and that it was problematic.

certainly, as the game was only a few weeks away, the principals decided to release the students after lunch, as long as they were on campus.

- just say that I have no interest right?

- why don't you just go, Angel?

- I seriously thought about not going ...but I saw my name on the inscriptions !!! I went to talk to the teachers but if I didn't come here I would probably stay after school cleaning the boys' bathroom as a punishment for my lack of commitment !!! - says the terrified girl, almost pulling her hair out.

- silly calm! just say you have things to do and they set you free. - the friend laughed.

- Okay. - Angel sighs and inhales ten times and goes to the girls who looked like the official cheerleaders. - hello, hmm ... Who's taking care of the inscriptions?

- me. - a girl with wavy brown hair with blue colors and brown eyes spoke getting up from the table where there were four more girls. she seemed to be a little stingy, but we should never judge by appearances. - the alleged trainers stay there. - the girl points to a group of mad women who only spoke of the "king".

- there it is! - says Angel with a forced smile. - I'm not a trainee because I didn't sign up.

- as?

- I don't know if there was an error in your system but I kind of didn't sign up because I'm busy and therefore I can't dedicate myself to it. - points Angel. - not to mention my lack of physical skills, I don't want to embarrass Light Moon. - I smiled forcefully and the girls started laughing indebauchery.

- look, I don't know if you're trying to steal my time, but your name is here, so you're going to do this audition. Now, boy! It's taking up my time. - Angel was furious but on the outside she just smiled and returned to her friend.

- and then? Let's go?

- I have to stay. I can not go out...! - the girl whimpers.

- haha ​​... - Amber did not know what to say and could only smile worriedly. - check it out ... Will the boys on the basketball team follow the training? - Amber points to everyone sitting in the stands.

- are you kidding?!! i can't be cheerleader !!! I will see that idiot every day !!!

- haha ​​...

- wait?! That means only one choice I can make !!! - Angel looked excited and Amber could have sworn she saw little stars in her eyes.

- accept that you are dramatic and audition to win and get more extracurricular grades?

- dance terribly so that they have no choice but to fail me !!! - the other slapped her in the face.

- hey girls! on here! shouts the excited girl from Channel. - stay tuned to our captain!

- this hearing consists of three stages! One, you must know how to memorize the steps quickly! Two, you must be in complete sync! Three, you will only be accepted if I think you have the potential.

"In other words, a tyrant." thinks Angel.

- you must do exactly what we do and if you can follow, you will move on to step 2! - says the same excited girl.

"Are they not going to perform ...?"

- those who do not know the name of our incredible captain, can consider themselves losers and go out the door. - says another girl looking at the newcomers who were afraid, some of them, due to the pressure ended up leaving.

“So this is their tactic of knowing who can be under pressure? kind of unique ... ”thinks Angel.

One of the girls put on the song “Dally” by Hyolyn and started a dance that was a little difficult to catch, although sexy.

This was the perfect time to be disqualified!

as soon as the girls finished the dance and told the rest to repeat exactly, almost half didn't catch it. Angel was dancing a dance completely out of context, which she affectionately called a crazy chicken.

the other girls really stopped dancing and continued to look at Angel who was very ashamed inside.

- this girl is weird already. - mocked one of the team members. - but it's cute, right?

- hey, isn't that the girl who rejected you that day, Andrew? asks another boy.

Andrew was smiling as he saw her ashamed of her life.he was probably doing this to stay away from him and even if that is not something to be proud of, Andrew was already happy that she was doing all this to not be near him, that means that even a little bit, she cares about him right ?

for Andrew it is better that she does things to stay away from him, than she simply ignores him completely.

Her friend was laughing like crazy about Angel's strange and embarrassing dance.

- enough! cries the captain without patience.

"Okay, at this step I should have already gotten a big foot in the *** hahaha"

- I know what you're trying to do, Angel Yao. - says girl approaching Angel with a withering look.

- I'm just participating, isn't that what I wanted? - Angel answers in the same dry tone.

- look at this girl. I don't think I'm really dedicated and this is a shame for us cheerleaders! This is an art and I will not let you ruin it insolent brat!

- the art of rolling your *** with a bunch of pink pompoms? Or the art of drawing the attention of the guys? which art? - at that moment the captain slapped Angel. Well, she deserved it for expressing her personal opinion.

That surprised Andrew, he never imagined she would say something like that to a stranger. I didn't know what to say or what to think ...

- you have no idea!!! - she seemed to be controlling herself as much as possible. - But look, don't think that talking bad about us will be like this. if you don't want to get a bad grade at the end of the school year for contempt for an official school sport, of course, if you don't get suspended, you and I will have to dance. - the girl speaks taking Angel's collar, with a murderous look. - if you win, i admit you are right and i will set you free .if you lose you will have to ask to go out and accept the consequences, in addition to admitting you were wrong and apologizing on your knees !!! - the girl was completely above the limits of anger with Angel.

The two have separated and go to opposite sides.

- uuh ...will this really work? - Amber asks worriedly.

- hope so...

After a few minutes, the two met in the middle of the gym and one of them threw a coin.

- It's my turn. - He speaks sharply as he moves a little away from the girls.

the song he played was “16 Shots” and the captain shone brightly while dancing, showing conviction and pleasure at each step. Angel smiled as he watched her dance so passionately. After a minute and a half, it was Angel's turn. she started a smooth dance and grew, making it heavier and more complex.

Although Angel's steps are much more difficult than the steps of the other competitor, they showed no conviction, had no feeling and it was cooler.

the girls changed the song and then it was more of a ballet thing. They were worried because for some reason the crazy chicken was now dancing divinely.

It didn't take thirty seconds for Angel's second time and the captain fell to the floor. She started to cry and the girls despaired. it was almost like a “surrender!”. Angel smiled and approached the beautiful girl.

- Jessie, I don't know what you're going through or fighting for since we don't know each other very much now. But do you know? no matter the problems and the things you go through, you should tell your friends. - Angel points to the worried girls.

- why are you telling me this?!! WHY ARE YOU THAT GIVING SO DISAPPOINTING ADVICE? !! - the girl seemed to be suffering a lot, because she kept crying. - I ... No matter what I try as I try ... WILL ALWAYS BE ANY BETTER THAN ME? !! -

angel returned the slap she had once given and looked her up and down.

- stop being weak. It's annoying. You know well that with 7 billion people in the world, there will always be someone superior to you in something. you're just focusing on getting up and you're forgetting about a group of girls who need your support and leadership. There is a problem? Tell them damn !!! If not, I'll have to get slapped every time I need to put you in place !!! - Shouts Angel surprising everyone.

that day at lunchtime, the Channel haired girl called Angel to talk to her privately.

- hello, remember me? - smiling and friendly she asked excitedly. - my name Natsuki Kyai

- pleasure ... - Angel smiles a little awkwardly. - what did you want to talk to me about?

- I want to ask you a favor. My friend, Jessie Scolt is very bad lately. She is also a little unmotivated to dance ... I am worried about her and the dispute in two weeks. Could you motivate her? - asks in a sad and worried way.

- motivate?

- you took dance lessons as a child ... I remember you in ballet class! My friend also participated, I don't know if she remembers us ... - she speaks, touching her fingers, shy.

- Natsuki-san and Jessie? right ... - Angel started to remember her days as a dancer, she probably hadn't noticed ... But she was the best dancer in her class and at that time, there were many girls wanting to be like her or hurt her. One of those little girls was Jessie, an American transfer student. angel remembers that Jessie could really be a pain in the ***, but she had a lot of feeling while dancing. once Angel sprained her ankle and for that reason turned her back on dancing and focused on her studies, after all, she really had no interest in dancing and being in the spotlight, she always wished for a calm and peaceful life. - I remember you ... What about it?

- she may not express herself properly, but she really admired you. I'd probably give anything to get a chance to dance against you and beat you!

- beautiful admiration in ...? - Angel sarcastically speaks.

- please! do something against your lack of stimulation and help us win the championship !!! I promise you won't need to dance in the crowd anymore !!! - Natsuki bows completely exaggerated and begs.

- Natsuki-san ... People are watching us, stop. - says Angel seeing the students staring at them. - I do-

- thanks Angel-san! - Angel laughs and returns to his table in the cafeteria.

- do you know that girl? - points again to Natsuki who looks confused. - she loves you, cares about you, bends like crazy in the middle of the corridor for you and she deserves to know what happens in your life! just as you deserve your best! - Angel crosses his arms and turns his face away. - I stopped dancing ballet because I sprained my ankle, since then I don't dance much. I am not a disappointing person. Besides, I don't have as much passion for dance as you do! my steps are complex but i have no feeling. It does a cold and dull dance.

- what...? - Jessie was still storing the information. - you didn't give up because you didn't like ...?

- ah, - Angel hugged her and smiled. - you've done a great job since you entered that school. the cheering group has only won contests. - Angel pulls her away and smiles at Jessie. - so enough of feeling inferior okay?

- yes, I will do my best! - Both smiled and so, the girls managed to retake a new audition. This time more straight and organized.

as soon as the afternoon fell, the beautiful sunset was already brilliant, with some stars across the sky. Angel and Amber went hand in hand while they talked.

- Hey, Angel, I never imagined your plan would work. how did you know she was going to release you and restore confidence after you offended her? - Amber asks interested.

- because nobody wants to be devalued in something they love so much. This is a kind of love right? she loves to dance and express herself, even if dancing is not something I enjoy, about following her dreams and dedicating herself body and soul to it. - Angel smiled radiantly and finished - doesn't that make you want to see this person working harder and reaching his potential?

- Oh yeah! Haha! - the two smiled and go to the dormitory together.
