On the way back, Hazel's excitement faded. She felt like she was breaking out in a cold sweat.
Mandy told her that she had both good and bad news, but in Hazel's mind, she didn't hear any good news at all.
'Oh my gosh. No, no, no. I'm so doomed!' Hazel realized she was holding her breath and found herself holding her face in frustration.
She continued to have a monologue in her thoughts. 'Why did Hanson have to be one of the judges in this show? Why would I have to see him this way?
And why does Sunny even have to be in the same competition as me?
Her family is already so wealthy. She doesn't need this, so why did she have to join? Ugh, it's not going to be a competition anymore. It's decided, right? I guess this will be like a walk in the park for her.
Hanson will obviously favor Sunny and give her the best scores while I'll try so hard and it might not even matter!' Hazel let out a heavy sigh. She felt exasperated at the thought that she couldn't stop patting her face.
