It's 6 a.m. as I enter the ice to practice my usual triple axel when I see a young woman enter the ice and start skating after a few warm-ups. She's doing well, her movements are wide and close to perfection, and she's perfectly synchronized with the music playing in the background. However, she lacks confidence and seems afraid when it comes to doing jumps or twists; she always gives up at the last moment and stops at a jumped half-turn. Intrigued, I approach her slowly before taking her hand to attract her attention, as her eyes are closed and she doesn't seem to have noticed me.
