"I love you not only for who you are, but for what I am when I am with you" – Roy Croft

--------------------------------------------------------

I went inside the room with my heart beating three times per second. There were thousands of lights and three pairs of eyes were focused on me.

"Myra Middleton, We are pleasured to meet you. There is a question I want to ask. Are you confident enough to win this?" The one in the middle said.

This was the question I have been asking myself from all the times. Can I do this? Am I confident enough? Yes, I am. I can do this. I will do this.

"Yes sir, I can and I will win this." I replied with confidence.

"Good! Now what song are you going to present?" The left guy asked.

"I am going to sing a song my mom used to sing." I replied.

"Ok young lady I would love to hear a new song" He said with much interest. I think no one has sung a song that is originally by them. Well I guess everything has a first time.

I took in a deep breath and started singing. Ok here goes nothing.

"your little hand wrapped around my finger

And it's so quiet in the world tonight

Your little eyelids flutter cause you're dreaming

So I tuck you in, turn on your favourite night light

To you everything's funny, you got nothing to regret

I'd give all I have, honey

If you could stay like that

Oh darling, don't you ever grow up

Don't you ever grow up, just stay this little

Oh darling don't you ever grow up

Don't you ever grow up, it could stay this simple

Just try to never grow up, never grow up.......

......................

......................"

Throughout the whole song I never glanced at the judges, my mind was fully in the song. Finally when I finished the song I glanced at the judges. They were standing and clapping for me. I felt a smile that crept on my face.

"You were amazing Myra. When you said that you were going to sing an original song, I thought that it would be some lyrics sung randomly but when you started singing I was shocked. The lyrics were too good and the way you sung was so professional and beautiful. It's a yes from me"

The one who was sitting in the middle said. I am out of words at that comment. Calm down Myra, two more judges are left.

"Myra my dear girl. You were outstanding. It's yes from me too." The left judge said.

"Thank you so much" I replied with so much happiness in my voice.

The judge who was sitting on right was a famous 90s singer Celine Dion. I am her big fan. I love 90s music.

"Myra, you were awesome, amazing and perfect. I think you are the first person whom I liked the most in those auditions. I just loved the lyrics you sang and those words about a mother saying to her child that she wants her to never grow up and just stay little. It was simply perfect. I full-heartedly welcome you in TSTS. We look forward to see you in next round." With those words I fist-pumped in the air.

"Yes!! Thank you so much" I was actually vibrating from joy. All the judges smiled. I went outside the room running and jumped on Ashley.

"Oh my gosh oh my gosh I got in. YASS!!" I hugged her. She squealed and hugged me tight.

"Yay!! Mie we are together now. I can't wait for the next round." She said.

"Yeah me too." I replied.

"How about we meet at my place and practise together. I am all alone in the house." I asked. Eventually I would get bored too if I practised alone.

"Sounds great. When should I come over?" She asked.

"Anytime you like but not between 1 to 4 pm as I work during those hours at a cafe." I said.

"Same here girl. I work at a library which is so boring" She said doing some dramatic actions. I laughed.

"I don't think so. I love libraries and books" I replied.

"But I hate them" She pouted and faked cried.

"Oh my baby let's get you to the library" I did dramatic mom's actions with her.

We both laughed and then exchanged numbers and went on our separate ways.
