In paragraphs 15 - 25, the dancing grows more fast - paced and chaotic, with the music lagging and people's reactions showing growing concern. The author uses pacing to build a sense of suspense as the situation spirals out of control. There is no mystery of an unforeseen occurrence, no accidental mistake illustration, and no unnecessary conflict tension shown. The focus is on the growing chaos and the suspense it creates.
