At 6:00 am the girls finally fell asleep. Waking up to the noon sun, they all realized the luncheon was in two hours. “Oh I just want to stay in bed all day!”, murmured Miss South WV. “Natalie it’s your mom.” Said Miss North NJ. “Get back here! You have a luncheon to get ready for!” cried Natalie’s mother. “Is Leanna with you?” she asked. “Of course.” Said Natalie. “Tell her to get over here too because her mother is waiting for her to get ready!” said Natalie’s mother. “Alright were coming.” Natalie answered. After getting off the phone, she told Leanna that they needed to go back to their rooms. “This is it everybody!” cried Miss North NY. “Almost time for the top 10 to be announced. “I’m so nervous!” smiled Miss South DC as she freshened up with the rest of the girls. I heard there was a buffet breakfast this morning.” said Miss South Maine. “Extra sleep or breakfast? I choose sleep.” said Miss North NY. “Amen!” smiled Leanna. Well me and Natalie are heading back.” said Leanna “Ok see you at the luncheon!” said Miss North NY. We’ll be seeing you!” smiled Natalie as she and Leanna left out of the door. After getting to Natalie’s room, they were both rushed by their mothers. “Come on girls! We have less than two hours!” cried Natalie’s mother. “This is the dinner dress outfits right?” asked Leanna’s mother as Leanna nodded her head. Natalie took a shower and got dressed doing her hair and make up last. “As pretty as a pearl!” , cried Leannas mother to Natalie as Natalie smiled. “Are you curling your hair?” her mother asked. “I’ll just wear it straight.” Smiled Natalie as she wore her white and pinkish rose silk spring dress with thin straps. Leanna also took a shower and got dresses in her dining dress. “Will that contestant that fainted make it back?” asked Natalie’s mother. “She should if she only fainted from sleeping medicine; poor thing.”said Leanna’s mother “From her performance in swimwear, evening gown, and not competing in talent, she won’t be making the top 10!” said Natalie’s mother. “Need any help Leanna?” her mom asked. “I’m fine.” she said before coming out of the bathroom. “Look at you!”, smiled Natalie’s mother. “Very beautiful!” she Leanna smiled wearing her solid yellow thick strapped dress which criss crossed in back while her black permish curly black hair cascading down her back. “Let’s go ladies!” said Leanna’s mom cheerfully.

The luncheon was starting in 30 more minutes. The ballroom where the breakfast buffet was held was partially filled with contestants, family and friends. “Here we are! The same table we were at the beginning!”, smiled Natalie’s mother. The food smells so good!” said Leanna excitedly as she and Natalie saw steak, pork chops, baked chicken, grilled chicken, buttered fish (battered and non battered), lasagna, rice, gravy, macaroni and cheese, vegetable, breadrolls, fruits, cakes, pies, and beverages adorned the side tables of the ballroom. “It all looks so delicious!” smiled Natalie’s mother while she was mesmerized by the smell. “The ballroom began to fill up even more until there were no morte seats. The reality TV show crew came including Mrs Philmore and last year’s winner Margaret Sarchow. Please everyone help yourselves to the delectable gormet we have here!” cried Mrs Philmore. Many in the ballroom properly got inline to greet the extraordinary chow. As usual, some contestants only had fruits, vegetables and water, some a little temping foods, while other piled on the plates. Leanna was one of the ones
Piling it on as Natalie indulged a little. “I cannor resist girl.” Smiled Leanna as she filled her plate. “I better resist or they will be carrying me out of here on a crane.” Laughed Natalie. As most everyone in the ballroom returned to their tables to eat, Mrs Philmore started the announcments. “I like to thank you all for attending the luncheon. I klnow you are happy it started in the afternoon.” she said as some laughed. “As you all know, finals will be tonight at 6:00. But there will be a brief review of the opening dance number at 5:00. So contestants must be in the ballroom then. I also regret to inform you that Miss North Rhode Island Renee Taggart will not be joining us. She has withdrawn herself from the competition.” Said Mrs Philmore. Hearing this caused Natalie and Leanna to have the biggest grins on their faces. “But what I didn’t know was the incident aired on the local news!” said Mrs Philmore. Don’t believe me? Could you turn on the TV and show everyone?” she asked on the of the TV crew staff. “This was recorded last night” she continued. After turning on the TV, the recorded segment shown the report about Renee. “As a news cameraman, reporter, and two photographers were in Renee’s hospital room, she was asked about the incident. “Were you stressed Miss Taggert? Over worked?” asked the reporter. “Get outta here!” snapped Renee. “Get me my clothes!” Will someone get me my clothes?!” she demanded. “Pageant fans want to know will you continue with competing in the Miss North Eastern Beauty Pageant?”, the reporter asked. “NO! NO!! NO!!!!!! I WILL NOT!” she shouted. “I don’t go anywhere to lose! I go to win! Falling over fainting, walking dizzy in evening gown and swimwear, and not competing in talent! I’m NOT GOING!!!” she yelled. “There you have it viewers. Miss Morth Rhode Island has decided to drop out.” reported the journalist. “GET THE HELL OUTTA HERE!” yelled Renee as she threw chocolates here parents gave her. The reporter rushed out along with the cameraman and photographers as they flashed shots of Renee, her parents, younger sister, brother and older cousin. After seeing this segment. Some of the contestants, family and friends, burst out in laughter. Leanna and Natalie were swimming in tears of amusement. Margaret tried her best to keep her dignity along with Mrs Philmore, but tears chuckles managed to escape.
