Throughout her entire life, from a tender age until the present moment, Cora had an unwavering awareness of her exceptional beauty. It was a deep-rooted understanding that permeated her very being and influenced her every action and decision. This innate knowledge, this self-assured confidence in her captivating allure, was a powerful force that propelled her forward, relentlessly driving her towards success and triumph. Nothing, and I do mean absolutely nothing, could ever deter Cora from utilizing her exquisite physical appearance to gain a decisive edge over her peers and ascend the ladder of life.
It was during her formative years, at the tender age of thirteen, that Cora's keen eyes caught sight of an astonishing announcement that promised an incredible reward. A staggering sum of one hundred thousand dollars was being offered to the individual who could lay claim to the title of the most beautiful girl in Atlanta. In an instant, an electric current of certainty surged through Cora's veins, as she instinctively knew that she, and only she, possessed the divine attributes necessary to seize that coveted prize.
Born into a modest, middle-class family, Cora understood the value of hard-earned money and the significance of responsible financial decisions. With a heart filled with determination, she mustered the courage to beseech her dear mother for assistance in this momentous endeavor. With every fiber of her being, she implored her mother to procure a resplendent, red glittery dress that would perfectly complement her radiant beauty on the grand stage of the pageant. In a testament to her persuasive powers, Cora pledged to her mother that, should she emerge victorious, every single cent of the prize money would be promptly repaid, and she would even ensure that it would be dutifully set aside for her future education, safeguarding her dreams of higher learning.
It was no easy feat for Cora to secure her mother's agreement. With great tenacity and an unwavering determination that rivalled the likes of the greatest historical figures, Cora managed to sway her mother's initial doubts and reservations. And so, the red glittery dress was acquired, meticulously chosen to accentuate every exquisite curve of Cora's impeccable figure. Her hair was expertly styled, every strand meticulously coiffed to perfection. The finest cosmetics were selected, their vibrant hues serving as a mesmerizing canvas to highlight the ethereal beauty that resided within Cora's flawless visage.
With a palpable air of anticipation and an undercurrent of sheer awe emanating from her fellow competitors, Cora stepped into the hallowed dressing room. Each and every gaze was magnetically drawn towards her, the embodiment of an otherworldly beauty that transcended mere mortal comprehension. She was not just pretty in the ordinary sense; no, Cora embodied a regal elegance that belonged on the stage of Miss America herself. In that singular moment, the collective desire to triumph ignited within the hearts of her peers, burning brighter and fiercer than ever before.
As Cora took her first poised step onto the grand stage, the spotlights cast their warm glow upon her luminous, warm-toned skin. The jury members, renowned for their discerning eyes and unyielding standards, found themselves utterly spellbound. Cora possessed a unique amalgamation of qualities that left them in a state of awe-stricken admiration. Her strong character emanated from her every pore, lending her an air of magnetic charisma that simply could not be ignored. And that smile – oh, that resplendent smile – it held a captivating power that could melt the iciest of hearts. But it was Cora's eyes that truly stole the show, captivating all who dared to meet their gaze. They were nothing short of mesmerizing, possessing a depth and allure that surpassed all

- "130 is not pretty whatsoever her mother is just trying to pursue her dream thru her ugly child." said the old man who she was told was a designer
And she heard:
