  DREAMFUL   CHAPTER:36          ... Destiny thought about the day while chewing on her sandwich. What a rollercoaster had it been... losing sandals before a performance-NIGHTMARE. ' Maybe Stephane didn't take my sandals...maybe they got dropped out of my hand purse while I was in the styling room? I should go check in there '. She made her way to the room, it was all messed up then. Almost the end of the show, everyone was done with their makeup and hair. Blingy scarves and props hung on the hangers and clothing aisle, the hairstylists were packing up their bags, stuffing in combs, curlers, and straighteners along with makeup artists hurrying around the room, packing up their huge vanity bags. Destiny looked across the room and checked the place where her purse was kept, they weren't there. Not that she had expected them to be. She went back to her room and began packing up the stuff she had emptied from her purse. It was eleven at night and the bus service was schedul

  DREAMFUL   CHAPTER:35                 ... 'This is not the time to cry, Dez, come on!', her heart told her as she started knocking on random doors in the hallway. Some doors didn't open at all, some had loud music on, and some simply refused of owning a pair of shoes. It was all futile. Ten minutes for her turn to arrive, no shoes and she was begging for shoes, that's what she was doing. Destiny was about to turn her back, go to her room, pack her bag, get out of there, go home- A door behind her opened revealing an almond-eyed girl. Whether she was truly almond-eyed or was it the makeup...Destiny had no time to decide. Dez took one look at her and glanced at the door name tag- 'CORAL ELLIS'. "Hi, I'm Coral, you look worried?" "Hello Coral! There is hardly any time left for me to go up on stage and I have no sandals.", Dez said hurriedly, looking toward the stage and back at her. She was panting like a dog. Coral gave her a confused loo

  DREAMFUL    CHAPTER:34          ... Avenue 8 that's where the talent round was, a grand hotel with the most stunning ramp. There was no place for such grand-immense hotels in the heart of the city. It was the total outskirts of the city and Destiny had never been there, it was a two-hour long ride, 'pick-up-and-drop service' was provided by the pageant, however, the idea of traveling such long distances bored Destiny. It was five in the evening and Destiny was getting ready to leave. She put on a basic tee shirt and a pair of black jeans, packed her evening dress and the new sandals neatly, and put it in her bag, hair and makeup didn't have to be worried about since it wasn't her responsibility. The talent round didn't begin before eight p.m. and was scheduled to end pretty late. "Destiny, Good Luck! , and call us whenever you are on the bus back home.", Grace said. "Sure, sure, don't worry, I'll be fine". Destiny took a final look

  DREAMFUL      CHAPTER:33    ... When Destiny woke up, she saw a gift box on her side table. It read, ' To Dez,  Rock that talent round of yours! Grace.' Inside of the box were the sandals Dez had added to the favorites list the other day, they were simply pretty, with no heels, no shimmer, no glitter. Simply pretty. Dez tried them on and they fit her perfectly. She went out of her room and found Mrs. Decker working in the kitchen.  " Where's Grace?" "She's gone out to get groceries." "Oh...she left me this gift, petty aren't they?" "They sure are! Dez, have your breakfast and go get your dress for the talent round, don't wait till tomorrow, alterations won't be possible otherwise.", Mrs. Decker replied. The talent round for the pageant was scheduled for Saturday and Dez was going along with one of Edwins' ideas of reciting her poems. " Mom...don't you think reciting a poem is stupid for a talent round ?&

DREAMFUL       CHAPTER:32                       . .. "How cool is that, mom.", Destiny said, telling her the whole Stephanie-got-a-job story. "That sure is." "Why don't you ask your friends? Whether they are doing the same? Or I'll tell you what's the best option! Ask Rylee, she's a pro at this.", Grace said. "Rylee! That's it, I'll ask her!...by the way...how are things with Oliver?", she asked. This time, Grace sighed. "It's not him, it's his family that's in a hurry to get us married, they think I'll back off someday-" "But why would you even do that?" "I know I won't!", she said, adjusting her engagement ring, "We've been good for three years, we know each other for that long...and we are engaged! Why would I back off?" "Then why don't you just say yes. It'll be the best for you, Grace...it will save-" "I can't Dez! I have you to

DREAMFUL       CHAPTER:31              ... The next day, when Destiny woke up to get ready for the gym, she checked her laptop for emails, specifical emails from the pageant!

DREAMFUL       CHAPTER:29                           ... Two weeks since any updates from the pageant, what was it? A fake beauty pageant that only held the first two rounds, printed your oh-so-glam pictures in the newspapers, and then abandoned you? She was getting bored, day by day, hour by hour, minute-by-minute, second-by- "Mom, Rylee is back in town, she called me over to meet, I'll see you then, bye!" "Dez, Ivy is coming over, right?" "She is, mom, but that won't be before 5, I'll return before, promise!", she said and went out of her apartment. Her sister's disagreement with her fiancé continued and though she appeared to be smiling in front of her, deep inside she was being hurt, Destiny knew it. She knew this stupid feeling which emerged when you go through fights with your boyfriend or even a breakup. Destiny went toward her bike and started toward the 'Roselle Cafe', they had decided to meet up. Rylee was already there, on
