This is the diary of Cecilia Origami
How should I start? There is nothing interesting about me, really. The shoes in the corner? Oh, they are ballet shoes, I’m attending ballet lessons at the Red Shoes Studio. I love to dance and I’m so happy that my destiny is to be the ballerina in my tale but I know that I can’t compare with the likes of Nathan or Duchess. All these people are so much better than me but I too will one day become a graceful dancer.
I wonder how my tale will play out? We still don’t know who will be our villain, maybe the person is still attending spellementary but I’m sure who is destined to be my love. Brandon Soldier is so brave. He doesn’t fear anyone and anything. Fire, wild creatures, nothing.
Few weeks ago there was such a cold weather but when Brandon hugged me, I’ve felt warm again. I just wish he would dance with me sometimes. But he refuses, even if we are alone and no one sees us, he still keeps saying that it would only ruin my image if someone as clumsy as him danced with me. He isn’t clumsy, not at all. Besides it’s not his fault that he lost a leg.
Author’s note: Since Nutcracker is not only Hoffman’s short story but also Tchaikovsky’s ballet, let’s say that Nathan Nutcracker can dance, too.
