No turning back now. Her name was being announced on the stage.
All she could hear was some gibberish , ending with a shout-“Dance!!”
Ear-splitting applause , hoots and whistles rend the air.
Some one gave last minute tucks to the garland of plastic flowers on the enormous bun on her head.
Then she was thrust towards the stage. The night air felt cold on her bare shoulder and she shivered . Her heart went thump-thump and mouth went dry.
The thunder of the applause had died down and she was facing a sea of grinning faces.
“So this is it”.She closed her eyelids heavy with makeup and waited for the music to begin.
