When I was about to put on my national costume on the ground floor early this morning, I felt the need to check it, as my team had insisted. My national costume is inspired by the Goddess of Ayothaya of Thailand, and it's always a privilege for me to wear creations from the talented designers of my country.
Upon reaching the area, I found no one there, so I decided to start unpacking the costume from the box. Somsak had mentioned that they would be the ones to open it, but since I had nothing else to do and had woken up early, I took matters into my own hands.
The primary reason I'm here, however, is because of Dee. I know yesterday wasn't a good day for us, but after Samantha talked to me and explained what was going on, I began to think that I should give her a chance.
After finishing unboxing the national costume, I decided to take a peek at everyone else's natcos. Even though it was just a room full of boxes, I couldn't help but notice that some costumes were much larger than mine, while others were about the same size as mine. The anticipation for the upcoming event is building, and it promises to be exciting!
[Justin sent you a message...]
Oh, it's too early for Justin to be messaging me; it's only 4:26 in the morning. I have a feeling it must be important. Without hesitation, I quickly opened the message.
[From: Justin]
"Good morning, Miss Ann. Don't forget to stay as chill as you always do. Try not to dwell too much on Dee, even though you spend most of your time thinking about her, lol."
I chuckled upon reading Justin's message; she really knows I'm constantly thinking about Dee. After seeing that, I decided to turn off my phone.
I find myself missing Michelle at the moment, thinking she's probably getting ready for her national costume. Well, it's still quite early for that, but in times like these, it feels like it's too early indeed. Maybe I should wait until the sun comes up; I'm too excited to sleep.
I think it's time for me to head back to my room. I just need to open the package so it'll be easier for me to prepare later. I'm going to leave the room now.
As I was on the verge of leaving the entire area, I heard voices and what sounded like someone fixing something in the other room. The voices were not yet distinct, but I could tell that there was someone there.
"Someone's at the door," I heard someone say. Now, I could distinctly recognize the voice, and it seemed like it might be referring to me.
I felt the need to leave the area promptly.
"Hey, miss!"
I quickly turned my head as I noticed a guy happily staring at me. I awkwardly smiled when our eyes met.
"I-I'm sorry, I was just about to leave," I told him, turning away as if I was ready to depart.
"I actually need your presence here; I'm heading to the other hotel to get some tools, and it's a bit far," he explained.
