Let's Dance
Alice hovers by the dancefloor, her eyes following the elegant couples floating across the floor. Soft music calls her, begging her to join but she’s hesitant. Amongst the elite, could someone like her step on that floor? Staring at the lining that exposed the safety of the carpet to the open exposure of the wooden dance floor. Could she leap over the golden line? Blue toes in a golden shoe appear in view. It’s Karoline. Her matching fingernails reach and pull up Alice’s face. Eyes smiling and mouth laughing loud, she steps further into uncharted territory, her arm outstretched. “Let’s dance.”
