Finally, after everyone had finished, there was an intermission which the judges use to decide who is the top five. As many people took part in this, only five are allowed to be chosen. Then, the top five from each location will gather and compete for the only two position to represent their country. The competition was truly intense.
The lights dimmed, signaling that the intermission is ending. Everyone got back to their seats and it was so silent that you can literally hear a pin drop.
A tall man walked on stage. "Welcome back, ladies and gentlemen. We will now announce the results of the audition, starting from the top fifth. In the fifth place, we have Daniella Wong. " The audience clapped for her as she walked on stage with a arrogant aura surrounding her. Having extremely good eyes, Amelia noticed that it was the girl who was talking about how good looking the vice president is. Shaking her head, she glanced at the vice president who was standing on stage and presenting her a certificate of achievement. He indeed is handsome.
"In the fourth place, we have Zoey Lee." Once again, the crowd applauded. Another girl with a arrogant aura walked on stage. After shaking hands with the vice president and getting her certificate, she joined Daniella at the side of the stage. "In the third place, we have Amelia Chan. "
Amelia's eyes widened with surprise.
(C_C)
She actually made it?
Seeing that her friend was not going to recover from shock anytime soon without her help, Chloe pinched her. Amelia yelped in pain and shook her head a few times before rushing to the stage. On her way, she could feel that burning gaze on her again. She screamed internally, not knowing what was wrong with her.
Why does she always feel nervous in front of him?
"Ahem... " She snapped out of her reverie and noticed that she was already on the stage. He had one hand out waiting for her to shake it.
(//•//•//)
Her face turned beet red and immediately shook his hand. Receiving the certificate, she posed for a photograph and left the stage with her face burning. And of course, her best friend never failed to notice it.
"In second place, we have Beatrice Lim. " A innocent looking girl approached the stage as everyone clapped.
By this time, Chloe had already accepted that she has a very low chance of being first so she was stunned when she heard "Last but not least, in the first place, everyone please welcome Miss Chloe Tan on stage. " The crowd gave a standing ovation as she walked to the stage and received her certificate. She was still shocked. She never knew that she would surpass the judges expectations.
As she walked to the side to have a group photo, she heard her friend squeal in delight. She suddenly stiffened. She felt that someone was looking at her, studying her every move. Her hands started to sweat.
