I told you I know about stains.
1:02:06
- You're a dry-cleaner?
- Well, I was. Until I was eight.

1:02:11
Actually, that's when
I started dancing.

1:02:14
I was helping out in the store
one day after school...

1:02:16
when my mom asked me
to go in the back and get an order.

1:02:19
It was this incredibly delicate sequined
thing, held together by a gold thread.

1:02:26
Well, I carried the costume
like it was gonna break.

1:02:30
And then I saw the customer.
1:02:32
She was the most beautiful woman
I had ever laid eyes on.

1:02:37
She invited us to see her dance that night.
And my mother said yes.

1:02:45
It was like the whole world had suddenly
gone from black-and-white to color.

1:02:51
The beautiful woman and her partner
stopped right in front of us...

1:02:55
and did a waltz pose.
1:02:57
She tilted her head back
and she winked at me.

1:03:02
And I felt like she was trying
to tell me something.

1:03:06
I took it as a sign.
1:03:09
And from then on. I knew that
ballroom dancing would be my life.

1:03:20
It wasn't the kind of dream
my parents had in mind.

1:03:25
What made you wanna dance?
1:03:28
You.
1:03:32
Looking out that window,
right up there.

1:03:36
You can see it from the train and...
1:03:40
every night I'd come home from work
and I'd look for you, your face.

1:03:48
You looked on the outside
the way I was feeling on the inside.

1:03:52
I was watching you too.
1:03:55
From the window I saw you
practicing on the platform.

1:03:57
No! Oh...
