I understand why I could feel the happiness in the air for months now, and why today it was just too much- coming from everyone. And I remembered the discussion between those overjoyed girls and why they kept repeating 'Tomorrow is the day'

I now feel more unobservant, they were all taking about this and I never even put my mind into it, I let important thing slip under my nose, that's one thing I have began to do too much nowadays, I felt irritated with myself.

How could I live in a world and be blind to what is happening in that world.

I should be observant.

I am again in front of the mirror, I look at the reflection of the hot girl looking back at me, and my former self was more beautiful than I presently was but that kind of beauty was not of this world, and beauty is what I do not need.

I sit on the chair and there is a click, Mary had just taken my picture with a camera we rented.

I looked at the picture and I saw that it was beautiful.

The picture that Mary took was printed and it looked really nice and beautiful, even for a human.

Mary places the picture on the right place on the form.

On space where I am to write some few description or things about me, I leave it blank. I knew that leaving it blank will cost me some points, but I really don't have much experience in the human world to know what I was to forge and add in that empty space, so I just left it blank. I would like to be a mystery.

I thought of the second name as there was a space to write in your surname too and I did not have one in mind.

Rose is obviously not my original name. I named myself that just to fit in with my new world.

"Melody" I said to Mary, caught off guard by my inappropriate words Mary replies a little bit too late "My highness, what did you mean", I smiled at her "my surname will be Melody", I said to her "And for this period, do not call me your highness, we are on a secret mission and that will give out to much" I said to her, "Okay" Mary answered, "Rose Melody, what a beautiful name, you are better at naming than the rest of us" Mary said to me.

I picked the surname Melody as I remembered that making music and melodies is really a big part of our lives as sirens.

Sirens communicate with music and tunes without words, they do not communicate with languages like the humans although the sirens understands all the human languages.

Must sirens sing songs without words because as sirens anytime we sing songs with words, we expose our feelings to others, it is like our songs get a mind of its own and we begin to sing out words of thing that are currently happening in our lives, and majorly the serious things, that's why must sirens just sings wordless songs. As the sea queen I can control the words I let out when I sing and twist it to the point that no one might fully guess it out.

In one hour, there are guards in the house asking whether the form has been filled and we gave the almost filled form to them.

In the morning of the next day- it was a work free day as today was the day of the announcement of the names of the hundred girls that will be participating in the choosing.

I sat on the couch while Mary sat on the floor, the radio on the table and today the names of girls that will be chosen will be broadcasted on radios, TV channels, E-websites and on the royal notice board, but as we only owned a radio we will just listen as the names will be called out.

I felt no tension, I was cool and collected. Although I will be listening to the radio reporter as the names were going to be mentioned, I will still be planning ways I can get into the castle if my name was not mentioned.
