This is the dress she where's for her birthday.😜 ----------------------------------------------
4 days later...
Today is my birthday. It is also the day that they say on the report who is selected. I'm feeling very nervous. I don't know why I don't even want to go. Do I. No no no no I don't want to go. I'm wearing my light pink dress with brown boots.(the pic above)
My mom made breakfast this morning. I don't know if it was because of my birthday today or that they will be naming the selected today on the report. For breakfast was bacon and eggs. I ate really slow because I was feeling the nervousness in my stomach again. At six o clock they will be announcing the selected.
"Honey what is the matter? It's your birthday, you don't want to be all gloom and doom today do you?" She asked obviously seeing my worried expression on my face.
"It's nothing mom." I can tell she didn't buy it. "Really mom it's nothing." I don't want her to know that I'm worried.
"You know I can tell when you are lying right? I'm your mother I've been with you all your life unlike your father,Brian. Now tell what is the matter?" She asked again. I have to tell her. She is giving me the death glare.
I sighed. "What if I don't get selected?"I asked. I'm worried that she will be really upset if I don't get selected. But that is only half of the truth. The other half is that apart of me will be really sad if I don't get selected. Like all of the sudden I'm hoping that I get in the Selection but the other half is telling me that I do not.
"Sweetie, if you don't get in I will be just as happy as if you did get in. I'm just glad that you are actually giving the Prince a chance." She said that like she read my mind.
"Right. Okay. I totally believe that." I said sarcastically.
" No Australia, I honestly mean it. It will be okay if you don't get in. I will still love you all the same." My mom said sweetly.
"Thanks mom. I love you to."
"All right with all this gloomy stuff , just open your birthday present." She handed me a rectangular shaped box.
I unwrapped the box slowly. Then when I saw what part of it was I opened it faster. It was an iPhone 6s. It also had a mac and cheese phone case on it. I can't believe it how - what -where did she get the money for it. I know that it is not the new IPhone 7 but still this is still a pretty big thing for me.

"Ummm, thanks mom but how did you get the mo...." she interrupted me. " That doesn't matter right now. All that matters is that you are happy. Are you happy honey?" She asked. " Yes mom I'm very happy. I love you." I gave her a hug and she hugged back.
7 hours later
"Australia the reports about to start. Hurry up!" She yelled upstairs to me. Of course I was trying out my new phone.
" K be down in a second!" I yelled back down to her.
I walked in to the living just on time. I sat on the floor in front of the tv and my mom was sitting on the couch. Just as I sat down the anthem stoped playing.
"Hello people of America. Illea. Today is the big day that we find out who go to the palace to meet our beloved Prince Aaron." Said Gravil.
The first seat was occupied by King Maxon. The seat next to him had Queen America. Next to her was Prince Aaron. Then next to him was the eight year old Princess Lizzy.
"King Maxon is going to make a few announcement then we can get on to the best part of the night." Gravil said.
While the King was talking I kind of dozed out. I was to nervous of what was going to happen next. They are going to name the selected. I sat with my knees to my chest and rocked back and forth until the King stoped talking.
"Now that the King has finished what he had to say let's get on to the selected. Prince Aaron would you like to come up here and pick the selected?" Gravel asked.
Prince Aaron nodded and walked down to the podium. "It is my pleasure to be here with all of you wonderful people tonight." Prince Aaron said.
"Yes, yes we know Aaron, you always say that." Gravel said jokingly.
Prince Aaron chuckled at that." You say the same opening almost every time we have a report don't you?" Aaron said wiggling his eyebrows.
"Okay you got me but I have a question." Aaron nodded. " What do you think of having 35 other girls at the palace?" Asked Gravil.
Prince Aaron thought for a second. " I hope that all the girls that will be selected are very lovely and respectful. That is all I really ask of them. And also just be yourselves. It makes it easier on me to get the privilege to know you better and you will get to know me better."
" Very well said Aaron. Let's get on to the selected shall we." Gravil said.
" First we have Brittney Jones a 2 from California. Next year we have Rosey Smith a 4 from Florida. Next we Kelly Homes a 4 from Chicago. Next we have Macy Shultz a 3 from Washington...the list went on and on... last but but not least we have Australia Cullen's a 5 from West Virginia.
I sat there for a minute comprehending what just happened. Did he just really call my name?
They showed Prince Aaron's expression. He looked shocked for a split second then he went back to his face being perfectly normal.
I jumped off the floor realizing that I am going to be in the Selection and jumped up and down with my mom and screamed in excitement.
"The 35 selected girls will be brought to the palace in 3 days so girls you best be ready for the competition and for Prince Aaron. That's all we have for tonight and good luck girls!" He said. The anthem came on and then the cameras went off.
