The Finals

*Arianne and Ezekiel followed Sophia inside the Aurile Theater secretly, because Arianne wanted to watch Sophia in the finals.

Arianne: That Harold, he lied to me by saying that Sophia had been eliminated earlier. (She angrily said)

*Ezekiel just sighed.

*After the second contestant, Sophia is now the next. As her name was called, a loud cheering was made by the audience. Inspite of her popularity, Arianne can see in her eyes that she is sad. Arianne then was stunned when she began to sing, for it was their favorite song. She was teary eyed while singing the whole song, then a tear fell from her eyes when she sang the last notes.

Judge 1: I can feel your whole heart from that Sophia, was it dedicated to your father.

Sophia: No, it was dedicated to my bestfriend. The moment we parted ways she promised to support me, but I never seen her again until now here in Aurile Theater, but I'm still hoping that she is supporting me in any ways, so I sang that song for her, for it was our favorite song.

Judge 1: Oh that is so sweet. Well who knows maybe she is one of your voters, or the one who promotes you outside.

Sophia: Yah that's what I've been thinking too.

*Arianne is crying while Sophia and the judge are talking.

Arianne: Sop, please don't cry, I never abandoned you for you've been in my heart always. And no matter what happen, you will always be my winner.

*The contest goes on in the Aurile Theater. The tension was increasing as the finalist competes with each other for they all performed really well. Then the final round came where they’ll be singing their second song. Sophia again thrilled the audience and the judges.

Host: Alright folks that is our last performance for tonight. Voting lines are still open, reminders only two votes per sim is allowed. Keep voting for your favorite finalists while you still can, cause after a break we will be closing the voting lines.

*The commercials were done and the streaming of the finals was resumed.
