Rehearsal

So many girls.

That night, Kiki's voice was coarse. The rehearsal stretched to almost four hours instead of three.
She didn't eat the 莲容包I've packed in her bag.
"Didn't your Teacher give you all a break?" I asked.
"Yes, she gave us a break but it is more fun to play than to eat Bao" she said.
"Oh.  Then what did you play?" I wondered.
"The Jie Jie-s taught me to run, and slide on my knees.......... slide like skating across the room. The room is our Break Room."   "It was very painful but very fun" she added.
"Glide, you mean glide. And why is it painful?" I wondered again.
"There are rough holes, small holes on the floor, my knees are painful."
"Ouch" my heart said.
