"Let us all welcome! The Director of the Legacy School of Arts. Mr. Carlos Vincent Sevilla." 
The crowd filled the arena with applause as a warm greeting for the owner and father of Professor Zsanira. This huge place has almost fifty-five thousand seating capacity, and I can't believe that those seats are already occupied. Just imagine how many people are watching this incredible event of the academy.
As I roamed my eyes, I saw different people and celebrities socializing and sharing trends together, this is new to me. I've never been at this kind of place before. I've never been surrounded by a lot of security guards, staff, and even media going live on different social media platforms.
Just thinking about that made me nervous, My whole performance will be aired before an hour, this makes me sick. 
Pwede ba umatras? 
We're in the second row of VIP seats in this arena, together with my fellow contestants. They are nervous too, knowing we're just first-year students who aren't experienced enough. In front of us is a table where the Director and other higher committee members are seated.
"As I've worked so much for this, I am with my other half. I will not be able to create this massive molder without my daughter..." he stopped and look at crowd. Her father's eyes are proudly screaming her daughters achievement and winning in life. Yes, she is indeed amazing. 
Nagpakawala ako ng malapad na ngiti nang maisip si Ma'am Zsanira, just looking at his father's reaction obviously they had enough sacrifices and hardwork to be this far from the very start. 
"Please welcome! Our Engineer, our Professor, and a Registered Nurse herself. Ms. Zsanira Avery Sevilla." 
My eyes were teary when his father became emotional as Ma'am Zsanira came out from the back of the stage. His father proudly guided her hand until they reached the middle of the stage.
The crowd went crazy after they saw Professor Zsanira wearing a black long gown exposing her skin.
"Her daughter takes after him, he was an eye-catcher too back then." 
"Zsanira grew up fine and gorgeous. I envy her." 
"I heard that some modeling agencies are eager to get her, but Zsanira refused." 
"I once hit on her bro, but obviously, she took me down. Am I that ugly?" 
Those are just some whispers and statements I heard from the different people behind us. So, Ma'am Zsanira is well-known? Well, that's not surprising at all.
"I am so proud of you," he whispered, but the whole crowd heard it because of the mic surrounding the podium stand.
That statement gathered different gasps and murmurs from the crowd. They were touched and happy too with what they witnessed.
Suddenly, I missed my father.
After Sir Carlos gave the bouquet of flowers to his daughter, he immediately left the stage, leaving the beautiful woman standing in the middle. The flashes of cameras added an elegant moment as she claimed the center of attention.
