Love At First Show!

Chapter 4

Chapter 4:

Great I wanted to go see my family but if I stayed after the show I was sure to hear her stupid crap. Whatever I'm not afraid of her I've swam with a 7,000 pound whale... After the show I stayed out to talk to my family and Robert. As soon as I walked up my mom and dad gave me a huge hug and my 2 older brothers told me I did great. My little 14 year old sister told me I was her inspiration, which touched my heart. Since I was a little girl I've had inspirations and now that I was someone else's, well it was the best feeling in the world. Robert gave me a huge hug and told me I did a great job. I had great supporters. Then I saw her walking down the steps toward me. "I told you I'd be watching you." She said not sounding mad at all. "Kristen, I'm not into having drama" I told her. She replied back "I'm not here to start drama. I'm here to thank you." Thank me? For what? I thought. She saw the weird look on my face and said "For taking Robert. I found the perfect guy for me after he broke up with me. So, thanks" All I said back was "Um... You're welcome... I think." She hugged me and left out of the stadium and her and some guys hands locked together. I loved the feeling of not being hated. I talked more with my family and they all told me how proud they were of me. My mom whispered in my ear something that made me laugh. She whispered "You found yourself a handsome man" I replied in a low tone "I know" and smiled. My mom and I have always been very close, although I was a daddy's girl. Before they left the stadium they all hugged me again and told me they'd see me at Shamu Rocks a night show. This has already been the best birthday ever. I got to be with my family and the love of my life. We decided to set up a visual playtime in the underwater viewing area. Guests love it because they watch us play with the whales and we'll call some guests up and let them meet one. Taylor got in her sparkly wetsuit skin and I got in the Tigger outfit. Yes, a Tigger outfit likes the tiger from Winnie the Pooh. Mike had his old Believe wetsuit on and Amber had a giant stuffed whale I was set with Katina and Tilikum. Taylor had Trua and Kayla. Amber had Makaio and Malia and Mike was with his usual whale Nalani. I loved having Tilikum and Katina because the guests loved Tilikum. I brought one little boy next to the glass and let him give Tilikum and Katina signals like to stick their tongues out and to roll on their backs and to and to blow bubbles. I turned around for a second and saw Robert watching me and smiling. Then I continued letting the kid play with them. He looked like he was having the time of his life. Well the play time was over and on the speakers they told the guest there will be a surprise Believe show at 3:00. WHAT? I thought. Why was I not aware? Then I remembered us rehearsing the Believe segments and they said it was for more hand signal practice. Now I see that was all a lie. Well okay then. I wonder if I'm performing. I looked at the board and it had me in the "Something Far Greater" segment. The one I've been rehearsing. Duh, now it all makes sense. Well, sort of. The stadium was already packed. My family and Robert were in the first row. Were they aware of this? The words I heard when I was a little girl started playing "SEAWORLD PROUDLY PRESENTS BELIEVE" and the video was on. Kyle was doing the first segment with Kayla. Amber and Kyle were doing share the joy. I had Far Greater. Taylor was doing the Testimony. Mike had Pass the torch. I had Tilikum in the splash segment, and Kristy, Mike, and Amber had One World. This should be fun.
