Believe me, living in the shadows of lies doesn't make it less of a burden. But I did this to save my family's name. Good and bad things stick with every single one of us. I kept running from it but no matter how hard I tried, the shadows never stop...
No one can reighn their shadow to stop following them -Laviette Shaw- «»«»«»«»«»«»«»«»«»
13 years later In 1879
Y/n’s POV
Today is the day I’ve been waiting for. Finally I can rest and take a small break from those tiring ballet performances. My name as Laviette Shaw is quite popular among the aristocrats because I usually play the main character on stages.
I’m not like other womens... On breaks like this, I don’t wear fancy gowns that would probably make me trip. In fact, I wear suits like gentlemen do. I asked my usual tailor to make me a particular suit for me to wear so that I could look different than the others.

“Look! That woman wears a suit like a man!” A noble woman saw me. “That’s Miss Laviette Shaw! The famous ballerina that always got the main role in every show!” A girl came up to me.
“How can I help you, little girl?” I smiled “I wanna be a famous ballerina just like you!” She said it with full excitement.
“You can! Fight for it! In every show I always say to myself ‘I will be the most elegant here, wether I am the main character or not’ I always thought it that way” I said giving a small tips to the little girl.
“Thank you! I will be a famous ballerina one day!” “ Im looking forward to it” The little girl smiled and walked away from me.
I saw nobles and under class here. I’m glad I can see a lot of people also on a vacation to relax.

“Ms. Shaw? Is that you?” A man in a crew uniform came up to me. “Oh, yes” I smiled. “Please do come in first. This is captain’s order” He made way for me. “Thank you. Send my regards to the captain” I said as I walked away.
I entered the majestic ship. This is my first time I went on a vacation without anyone accompanying me. After a long time, today I can finally watch a ballet performance inside this ship. Watching ballet without being the one who is on stage is also in my bucket list. Watching people dancing on stage, while I sit down enjoying it.
