Subject: A Grim Win! (Part 2) Sierra Emerald

This caused her to become a little puzzled. “Those are the same trees from my dream.” Natalie said to herself. “Huh?”, asked her mother politely. “Nothing. Natalie replied. The
Drive continued for two hours, so her mom decided to stop for breakfast. “Denny’s or I-HOP?”, her mother asked. “You know I am on my diet.” Said Natalie in a disappointed
Manner. “Live a little girl. It’s not like you’re going to gain the weight back in a day!”, her mother replied. “Ok then I pick the I-HOP. It’s only 9:30?, said Natalie. “Yeah it is.”, cried her mother. “So that leaves us with two hours to go.” After stopping for breakfast, they both headed back to the car to continue the additional 2 hour drive. Reaching the exit of the hotel relieved Natalie. “Finally!”, she cried. “We’re here!” Enjoying the view,
her mother exclaimed “The Grand Hyatt is marvelous!” As they both gathered their things, they proceeded to the lobby desk to check in. Looking around, Natalie noticed a few other girls from ages 20-29 mingled around. “Here’s your key card and enjoy your stay!”, replied the front desk clerk in a friendly tone. “Are in the pageant?”, asked another contestant after approaching Natalie. “Yeah,….how did you know?” Natalie wondered. “You makeup case and evening gown bag gives it away.” Replied the contestant politely.
“I’m Leanna.” she said. “Natalie.” Natalie happily replied. “So what room are you staying in?”, Leanna asked. “Number 2225.” Natalie replied. “I’m two floors under in 2019.” Leanna responded. “So I’ll see you at orientation!”, she cried. “Ill see you there!”
said Natalie. She and her mother proceeded to go on the elevator. Finally reaching their room and going inside, they were both intrigued by its appearance. “This is incredible!”, Natalie’s mom exclaimed. “It even has a Jacuzzi!” Natalie jumped in the waterless tub with her clothes on. “I can stay here forever.”, she said. “Now remember.” reminded her mother. Orientation is at 3:00 so you have about 2 hours.” “Mom can I just enjoy the moment?” Natalie asked after getting out of the hot tub. “After the competition.” Her mother replied. “Now put on your make up, freshen up your hair, and let’s work on your introduction and walks.” “Natalie?” “Natalie?” called her mother while finding her asleep in the bed. “Ok you can have your nap time.” Her mother said gently. At 2:30 pm, she woke Natalie up to get ready for the orientation. After getting ready, they both headed to the ballroom where the other 44 contestants were. “Natalie!”, called Leanne as she waved her arm around. Natalie and her mother walked over to the table to be joined by Leanne and her mother. “Hi I’m Leanna’s mom!”, she cried as she shook Natalie’s mother’s hand. “Natalie’s mom!” Natalie’s mother happily replied. Leanna dragged me here ! This is like your 10th one right Leanna?”, asked her mother. “12th.” said Leanna as she smiled.
Natalie has been in pageants since she was 5!” replied her mother excitedly. “You mean the hair, makeup, big glittery dresses?” asked Leanna’s mom. “Oh yeah but it wasn’t as overly made up like it is now.” Natalie’s mother replied. “If Leanna was 5 now, no way would I allow her to compete in those types of pageants. It’s over bearing for me!” said her mother smilingly. As they were both conversating, another contestant accidentally tripped over Leanna’s foot. “Excuse me! I’m so sorry!”, replied Leanna sympathetically.
“Is she alright?”, asked Leanna’s mom while both Natalie and her mom looked concerned. “Yeah excuse you!”, snapped the contestant after getting up and walking away. “What’s her problem?” asked Natalie in a slightly annoyed manner. “Oh that’s Renee Taggart.” said Leanna in a small feisty tone. “She has won 3 major pageants in the pageant three years. Miss American USA, Miss Suntan America, and Miss US Beauty! Now she thinks her crap doesn’t stink. Leanna continued. “These things sure do bring out the worse in some!” replied Leanna’s mother amusingly as they all smilingly agreed.
