Faithlessly Rewarded
I never imagined I would beat my sister and win first runner-up. I didn’t have the slightest thought that I would win. As I stare into the crowd waving I see my parent’s disappointed faces. I turn around looking at my sister to see her tear-filled eyes and angry face staring at me. I would normally feel heartbroken when my parents still aren’t proud, but at that moment I felt proud. As I am brought a crown, sash, bouquet, and the $20,000 I can’t help but smile.
