Chapter 1058 You Should Believe In Yourself
Nicholas didn’t want Tessa to get too exhausted, so he tried coaxing her. However, Tessa had other ideas. She went through so much to get on better terms with Nicholas’ parents, so of course, she should work on their relationship more.
In the end, Nicholas had no choice but to suggest, “Why don’t you take them to the theater you’ll be performing in? They can get to know more about your work too.”
Actually, he had his own reasons for saying that.
Even though his mother had stopped mentioning Tessa’s job these days, he could still see that his mother had opinions about Tessa’s job. He didn’t wish for his mother to support Tessa like he did, but he hoped that his mother could understand Tessa’s dream.
Tessa thought about it for a bit, then agreed.
The next day, when they were having breakfast, Tessa took the initiative to invite Stefania and Tobias on a trip to Sapphire Grand Theater. Even though Stefania didn’t like the idea of Tessa going through the trouble instead of resting at home over the weekend, she still agreed to go.
They also wanted to know more about Tessa’s typical work day. Once at Sapphire Grand Theater, Tessa did her best to serve as a tour guide.'
“The architectural style here takes inspiration from the ancient palaces while adding some subtle changes. It’s luxurious yet generous, and it’s also a famous attraction in Vienna.”
Stefania looked all around her, and she actually admired the architectural style. Tessa naturally noticed the changes in Stefania’s expression. She took the elderly couple for a look at the stage and her usual training spots.
Soon, it was the day of the performance…
On that day, Tessa set out early for Sapphire Grand Theater to prepare. Even though there were more than 10 hours before the performance officially started, there were quite a number of people at the venue, and they were all bustling about.
As the co-stars, Tessa’s five seniors came as well.
At the venue, numerous journalists were doing interviews behind the scenes as well. Backstage, the makeup artist and costume designer the orchestra arranged for were at their stations as well.
As Tessa’s teacher, Sofia also came early to help.
She gave some people some work to do before walking up to Tessa.
Meanwhile, Tessa was seated at the dressing table, getting her makeup done. She looked visibly tense all over.
Seeing that, Sofia chuckled and said, “Why are you so nervous? I’ve never seen you so anxious on the stage before.”
When she heard her teacher’s teasing voice, she felt her tense emotions relaxing a little. “This is different from before.”
Before this, she was performing with an orchestra, so the audience’s attention was more divided. But today was the first solo concert of her life. Everyone’s attention would be on her, so of course she was nervous.
Especially now when she was greatly worried that she might make a mistake, or something unexpected might happen… All in all, she was terribly uneasy.
Sofia could see that too. She stopped joking and encouraged the young lady. “You should believe in yourself. Also, remember how much effort you put in just for this day itself.”
Tessa fell silent and reflected on herself. She realized that her teacher was right.
She had put in a tremendous effort for her big day, and she even sacrificed a lot. Based just on those things alone, she would only allow the night to be a success, with not even a smidge of failure.
“I know what to do now. Thank you.”
