Pressure filled the air as i walked up the stage.

It wasn't at all easy to be dressed in a suit and tie with the whole world staring into your face like nicompoops will stare at a wunderkind, wanting to be like him when they are not ready to go through the hardships.

Spell the word "Crustacean".

Well that was quite simple. Yeah very simple till i saw her.

"Excuse me,"the judge of the competition said bringing my mind back to the circumstance into which i was.

With my gaze still fixed on her silky-like hair which flew about freely due ro her seat being right under the ceiling fan, i began to spell..."C-r-a...." oops!

I hadnt realised that i was actually spelling wrong till those pretty brown eyes met mine.

Abducted by them, so innocent and devoid of pain or anguish, her face shining like the stars that shone at night time and her red blusher as attractive as that of  that of Quwen Elizabeth's, i heard from the judge...      "two minutes more No. 8."

From my colleagues to the girl i was secretly admiring here on stage and down to the front rows where my dad sat, i spelt ,"C-r-u-s-t-a-c-e-a-n"

That was enough to take me to the next round of the contest.

"Hi Jared, that was amazing." Sonia, my crush on stage said to me extending her hand for a shake only when dad decided to destroy my moment by rushing towards me and hugging me tightly.
