Lia stood in front of the panel , who looked at her appearance.
Lia cleared her throat "Ahem " .
With all those staring and glaring lia gnashed her teeth because she was feeling very uncomfortable and restless.
The Ex Queen looked toward her "Ah! so!! Lia ..... I just wanted to ask one question .....That... Why did you wore something that was never in the rule book , as you know that the rule book states that the dress should touch the ground .....Soo.... why this " She smile and frowned "....change??"
Lia smiled . Or at least tried too...
she couldn't tell that the dress was a gift by mike .
"I never wanted to wear something that everyone was wearing .This rule is followed every year .And I thought that, why not do something different this time..... plus I don't want to convert my dress into a broom which sweeps all the dust from the hall...." Lia said shrugging.
The ex queen . Liza Fang laughed . So did the other judges.
"Ha ha ha I like it !!Lia Xi keep it up!!"
Next to Liza sat Arran's mother with a resting bitch face.
"So you are Lia oh I mean The Lia! Arran talked a lot about you !!" she pushed herself backwards leaning on the chair.
"sooo ..... While looking at your profile I stopped at a particular point" She Stared towards her "You are quite good at boxing..." Arran's mom smirked
Lia smiled faintly and said "oh yeah I love to do boxing ". She felt as if she was being laser checked by her friend's mother
Arran's mother Karen Rong stood up and walked towards her , She kept smirking and suddenly a punch came out of nowhere hitting lia on her stomach .
Lia stumbled and her expression said it all .
She was horrified . She was not even prepared to doge or stop the punch .
Karen Rong clicked her tongue " Nah.....This chick is only bluffing about boxing " . Karen glanced towards the horrified panel "What?? I just tested the girl !!! I am allowed to do that right??" .
The principal stood up and said said in anger " Miss rong!!! we do not allow you to hurt the students !! please apologize to Miss Xi ".
Karen laughed , as if feeling everything humorous ." I never begged to be here, in this panel . Like few people " She then glanced at Malia . Who glared back at her .
"If I remember the past correctly I was forced to come here and someone begged me to come here .... " She then walked towards the principal and banged her hands on his table "Then why I am not allowed to test the students who are appearing for such a prestigious crown ?? and If I remember it correctly , I have more decision making power regarding this crown" she then walked towards lia and placed her hands on her shoulder " You stood even after getting a blow , you didn't cry and beg for the crown . I like that "She then turned cold towards lia " Always be alert , You can be beaten by anyone , even someone you trust the most , He /She may end up defeating you " For a second her eyes flashed pain , her mind was somewhere else while she spoke . Karen walked towards her desk .
But suddenly Lia kicked Karen's legs , causing her to stumble and fall . Lia immediately turned her over and punched her face with all her might .
She was very angry , She was always alert and quick , but she didn't knew how she ended up losing all her consciousness when she wore this dress .
"ALL RIGHT STOP RIGHT NOW !!! LIA YOU ARE REMOVED FROM THIS COMPETITION !! AND GO TO STUDENTS UNION ROOM TOMORROW TO COLLECT YOU SUSPENSION LETTER !!!" The principal shoot up and banged his hands on the table .
Karen also stood up but instead of being angry she patted her shoulder "You have so much anger inside you . You can do better " with this she walked towards the table and controlled the fuming principal to take back what he said .
At the end He took back his words.
Lastly Malia asked a question "Tell me one thing Lia Xi . Do you know how to do flower arrangement ??" she tilted her head .
"No " Lia frowned . 'What the hell is flower arrangement??' she questioned herself.
"Tea setting??"
"No"
"Ballet??"
"No"
"Horse riding??"
"Learning ..."
Series of questions were asked by Malia and lia's answer was mostly No .
Malia sighed "Then lia on what basis do you want to be the queen??" She asked her frowning.
"Am sorry MR'S LONG not every girl is privileged to study in such huge expensive school , Were expensive dresses and waste her time in setting tea for her fiance or husband that her father chooses ." Lia smiled mockingly.
"What do you mean Lia?? Share your thoughts with us." Liza fang smiled .
Her eyes twinkled with mischief and fun .
Lia took a deep breath " Look Miss Fang , I Didn't mean to hurt your feelings and your family . I am glad that you took birth in such a rich family . I just don't think that a person should be judged on her ability to arrange flowers or setting tea .Instead , I think that a girl should be judged on her mental ability , her physical strength , her emotional strength , Her problem solving approach . Because if a queen can't take care of her subjects then her kingdom will fall ,Every one expect that their queen should be elegant , flashing 100watt smile 24/7 , be well mannered . But what's the use if her kingdom is attacked?? what's the use of her smile?? if she is attacked and is abused , then what is the use of elegance ??. "She questioned the panel .
Malia forced her smile asked her last question .
" Do you have any elder sister?? " she stared towards lia in hope that she could notice any change in expression .
Lia's blood turned cold "Pardon??" she couldn't tell her true identity .
"Oh sorry to pry into your private life . but you really look like my friend with whom I used to spend my high school ."
"No I don't have any sister" lia replied in monotone .
"Oh ! okay so miss lia please go back to the ball room and enjoy , while we interview the others" Malia spoke a stiff manner.
Lia came out through the different gate and found someone standing there waiting for her .
"Lia....."
