So, I excitedly said to Wei'er, "Wei'er, I suddenly had an idea! I thought of a very special dance that I want to teach the lovely children in the kindergarten. And that beautiful music just now is the soundtrack to this dance! Look, let me show you this dance first, and help me see if it works, okay?" After that, I prepared to start dancing...

Three minutes later, I was gasping for breath like a bellows, my body drained of strength, and I slumped to the ground. Sweat streamed down my forehead, soaking my clothes, but I didn't care. My mind was filled with doubt.

Time ticked by, and for a full minute, the surroundings were eerily quiet; you could hear a pin drop. I couldn't help but doubt my performance: Was this dance really so bad that it silenced Wei'er, who always held artistic standards so high?

Just as I was lost in thought and before I could even ask, an excited voice suddenly broke the silence: "You're amazing, Sui Sui! Your dance blends perfectly with the music. This unique style is something I've never seen before. I believe that with this, you'll definitely stand out in the preliminary round and take first place!"

This sudden praise caught me off guard. I looked up at Wei'er, her face brimming with excitement, a flicker of disbelief in my eyes. She actually gave my work such high praise! My initial trepidation was instantly replaced by joy. I knew all my hard work had finally been recognized.

"Did you make this music, Sui Sui? I've never heard this kind of music before, and I've never heard anything in the lyrics before..." Wei'er asked curiously.

"Well..." the person being asked scratched his head and gave a shy smile. "This isn't my work. It's a very special song, created by a very talented musician. As for the lyrics, maybe they contain some unique cultural or story background, so you may feel a little unfamiliar. However, if you are willing to dig deeper, you may discover their beauty!"

After hearing this, Wei'er's eyes sparkled with excitement: "Really? Then I must give it a listen! Maybe I can get some inspiration from it. By the way, do you know the name of this musician? I want to listen to his other works."

"Hmm... I don't know much about him. I just happened to hear this song and thought it would be suitable for children to dance to."

Wei'er nodded, indicating that she understood. She couldn't wait to explore this mysterious world of music and see if she could find more melodies and stories that would move her heart.

After clearing the table, Wei'er also set off for home. By this point, sleepiness was overwhelming me. I forced myself to stay awake, quickly washed up, and prepared for bed. After all, I had to go to the nursery to meet those adorable little angels tomorrow morning! Thinking of the children's innocent faces and pure smiles filled my heart with anticipation and joy.

"Ah! What a wonderfully restful sleep!" After chatting with Wei'er for so long last night, I felt as if I had found a new direction in life. My previously adrift and wavering heart finally settled. Last night was the most restful and comfortable sleep I've ever had since arriving in this strange and challenging interstellar world. Even in my dreams, I could still hear Wei'er's gentle words and unwavering support. She told me to believe in my abilities and bravely pursue my dreams. These words warmed my heart like a spring breeze, filling me with confidence and anticipation for the future. I woke up feeling incredibly happy and refreshed. Gazing out the window at the vast starry sky, I felt like a small yet shining star, striving towards my goal. At this moment, I fully understand that countless difficulties and obstacles may lie ahead, but I am fully prepared to face them all. With a clear direction and a firm belief, I believe I can carve out a niche for myself in this vast sea of stars. Thanks to that heartfelt conversation last night, I've rediscovered the courage and resolve I'd long lost. In the days ahead, I'll strive with all my might toward my ideal, proving my worth through concrete actions. No matter how turbulent the storm, I'll never retreat in fear—only to realize that once unattainable dream...

After washing up, I walked out of the house and started my day's work. About half an hour later, I finally arrived at the nursery.

"Hi, dear little Maggie, why are you up so early today?" As soon as I walked to the kindergarten gate, I saw Maggie sitting there obediently, her eyes looking out the door. When she heard my voice, she immediately turned around with a bright smile on her face: "Teacher Sui Sui, you are finally here! I have been waiting for you here for a long time."

Looking at Maggie's innocent face and her eyes filled with anticipation, a wave of warmth washed over me, bringing me immense comfort and joy. However, as I glanced behind Maggie, I noticed Vaughn staring back at me. His gaze met mine, and he quickly lowered his head, as if trying to hide something. This gesture piqued my curiosity, while also hinting at his inner awkwardness and stubbornness. Vaughn before me was like a child harboring a secret, unwilling to reveal it easily, a desire to delve deeper.

So, I walked forward with a firm step, holding Maggie and Vaughn's hands tightly, and prepared to enter the classroom together. The moment I took Vaughn's hand, I noticed his hand slightly shrink, but I didn't show any abnormality. Instead, I continued to hold his hand as if nothing had happened and walked towards the classroom together.

At that moment, I thought to myself, "Maybe Vaughn's experiences have made him uncomfortable with holding hands and intimate contact." However, I decided not to dwell on this detail for now. With a smile on my face, I walked side by side with Maggie and Vaughn into the classroom. I tried to act naturally, as if nothing had happened. Meanwhile, I discreetly observed Vaughn's reaction, trying to discern any clues from the subtle changes in his expression.

After entering the classroom, we each found a seat and sat down. I stole a glance at Vaughn and saw that he had his head lowered, seemingly lost in thought. I thought it might be best to give him some time and space to slowly adjust to this close contact.

After all, everyone has their own personality and way of doing things, and it takes time to adjust and accept. As a teacher, I should be understanding and tolerant, rather than overly demanding. I hope that over time, Vaughn will gradually let go of his concerns and truly accept me.
