Throughout the process, friendships blossomed, and a sense of unity prevailed among the contestants. The rehearsals set the stage for what promised to be an unforgettable competition, where not only individual talents but also the spirit of international sisterhood would shine brightly.

All the delegates are back in their rooms but Michelle decided to go to Anntoni's room.

Michelle entered Anntonia's room, and a warm smile spread across her face as she saw her girlfriend. Anntonia, tired from the earlier rehearsals, welcomed Michelle with open arms.

"Finally, you're here, my love. The rehearsal earlier drained me, but you're here now. Let me recharge my energy. I missed you," Anntonia said with a playful grin.

Michelle chuckled, "Hahaha, we were together just 10 minutes ago, my love. Do you miss me that much, huh?"

Anntonia pulled Michelle into a tight embrace, "Always. There's never a moment when I don't miss you. Rehearsals are fun, but being with you is my favorite part of the day."

They shared a quiet moment, enjoying each other's company and the comfort of being together. Michelle couldn't help but feel grateful for these stolen moments amid the busy schedule of the pageant. In the arms of her girlfriend, she found a sense of peace and a source of strength to face the challenges that lay ahead

Miss Laos entered the room, catching Anntonia and Michelle in a sweet embrace. She couldn't resist teasing them with a playful comment.

"Hey, lovers!" she exclaimed with a mischievous grin.

Anntonia and Michelle shared a laugh, but Miss Laos, with a mock expression of jealousy, added, "Stop with your sweetness, please. You make me feel jealous."

Laughter echoed in the room as the three contestants enjoyed a light-hearted moment together.

Anntonia, still holding Michelle, replied with a playful tone, "Oh, come on, join the sweetness party!"

The room filled with camaraderie as the contestants, despite the competition ahead, found joy in each other's company. The shared laughter and banter helped lighten the mood, creating bonds that went beyond the stage and the pageant spotlight

Miss Laos, genuinely moved by the love and connection she witnessed between Anntonia and Michelle, expressed her admiration for the couple. She shared her thoughts with sincerity,

"You two are truly amazing. The first couple to compete for the Miss Universe crown, and it's evident how much you love each other. Regardless of the outcome, you've already won something incredibly special, each other. I really admire your relationship."

Anntonia, touched by Miss Laos' words, smiled and replied, "Thank you so much. Love is a beautiful thing, and Michelle is truly the love of my life."

Michelle, in turn, added with gratitude, "We appreciate your kind words. It's not just about the crown for us. It's about supporting each other's dreams and being there through thick and thin. We're lucky to have each other."

The three contestants shared a moment of mutual respect and understanding, realizing that beyond the competition, they were all individuals with unique stories and journeys. The room was filled not only with the excitement of the upcoming pageant but also with the appreciation for the genuine connections formed among the contestants.
