The girls were walking home after a long day at school, The principle's last words couldn't stop echoing in their ears.
The contest is officially open and the school will be accepting entries for 3 days straight..They could easily grab a Pen and write their names on the board but what they are afraid of is what might come next after they write their articles.
If they write it, They will have a chance, Maybe one in a million but a chance.

Lucy and Rebeka walked with Kathy till they reached her home, She walked insider with no words, Not something she does everyday but they understood what her mind was busy with.
Then Rebeka went home and then Lucy.

Lucy didn't even notice her parents and went straight upstairs, She didn't even take off her uniform but just threw herself on her bed straight away and closed her eyes.

She started to think..and say to herself "Think deeply, Lucy! This is not just any decision..This could change your life!" and she imagined herself with Kathy and Rebeka after their articles won, While they were heading to the airport to meet the boys, She screamed when she did cos it felt so good..she decided to ask her mom, but in an indirect way.

She saw her mom in the kitchen cooking dinner, Then she started to think how to ask her mom the question she needs without sounding weird?

"Hey mom!" She said a little nervous.

"Hi Sweetie!" her mom replied in her usual smile "How was school?"

"Uh..School was good..But I gotta ask you something and I just couldn't wait till dinner, you know..Its better if I tell you while dad is not around.." Lucy said getting more nervous.

Her mom looked weirdly at her then she said "Alright, Dear! Tell me what you want, I hope its worth it."
Her mom was used to "silly" conversations with Lucy, They were mostly about One Direction so her mom didn't really think it would be important.

"You see, um..they have this kinda contest at school and of course I am not entering but this contest is about writing, You know..Uh..You write an article and if your article is....Creative and well written, You would get to travel to the UK..Lets just imagine, IMAGINE..that I entered that contest..Would you encourage me or tell me its a bad idea?" asked Lucy thinking that she might have confused her mom.

Her mom thought for a while and collected herself then she said "Its depends..If you would go to the UK to learn or to do some teenagers silliness."

"Mom..Come on! Like the school would arrange such a trip so that you can go shopping..Of course its about....Learning" She said thinking that she didn't literally lie, If she won, she would meet the boys and LEARN more about them.

"Hm..Well in that case, I would encourage you of course and even help you to win the contest." Her mom replied then smiled.

".......Great...Uh..Then you wouldn't mind if I join the contest?" Asked Lucy.

"Well..I.." her mom was gonna talk then her dad yelled.

"WHAT CONTEST?!" Her dad asked angrily thinking that Lucy was hiding something from him.

"Honey, Please calm down..Its just a contest arranged by Lucy's school" Her mom explained.

"And what's that contest about?" asked her dad in a suspicious way.

"Well..Its kind of like creative writing, She is supposed to write some essay.."

"article" Lucy corrected.

"Yeah, Article! and if she writes it good enough, She will win a trip to England." Her mom was done explaining.

"A TRIP TO WHERE?!" Her dad was more angry now.

"Dad..Please! Don't get mad..I will go to learn, IF I win..I might not win anyway, I have really small chances BUT..The point is its all about learning, I won't go to hang out with foreigners or something!" She quickly tried to calm her dad down before he explodes.

"YOU..ARE...NOT..ENTERING..THAT..CONTEST!!" He yelled at Lucy.

"WHAT?! WHY NOT?! Why are you being so unfair to me? Its always been my dream to go there and now I finally have a chance to make my dream come true and you want me to blow it?" Lucy yelled back and she felt like she was gonna cry.

"Enough said, Lucy! You are not going to another country to learn or whatsoever..If you wanna learn, Learn here! In your country!...Since when and you care about education anyway?" Her dad talked as if the conversation is over.

"I JUST CARE ABOUT IT, ALRIGHT?! WHY DO YOU HAVE TO BE LIKE THIS?! HUH? WHY DAD? WHY DO YOU GOTTA RUIN EVERYTHING GOOD FOR ME?................I HATE YOU!" Lucy shouted then ran upstairs crying.

She locked the door behind her and started crying so hard, Just letting her feelings out.
But somehow, Weirdly! Her dad's words made her think more about entering the contest and writing the required article! He didn't put her hopes down, He made her more stubborn.
Then she wiped off her tears and put a look of deep determination on her face and she was like I am gonna do it no matter what my dad says.

Then she decided to call Rebeka and tell her about her crazy decision.

"Hello?" said Rebeka.

"Rebeka...I have made my decision" Said Lucy sounding determined, She didn't even ask Rebeka how she was doing.

"....About the contest?" Rebeka immediately read Lucy's mind.

"Yeah..I am entering" Lucy said.

"First why do you sound like you were crying or something? And what?!"

"You heard me! I am entering! I have had enough feeling miserable every second cos I haven't met the boys yet! I have hope that I will win! I will enter! and I am not crying.. Don't worry" Lucy yelled.

"We just got back from school, Are you sure you thought deeply enough? This is a big deal, Lucy! You heard the principle, As soon as your name is written, There is NO turning back!"

"I know! I remember what she said but I am sure..I am gonna do this.."

"......You fought with your dad?" Rebeka suddenly asked.

".........How did you know?" said Lucy who started crying again.

"I don't know..I felt it, you are never this determined on something, Unless somebody tells you you can't do it, And in this case I guessed its your dad cos your mom is not like him at all."

"...........Well yeah its him..We had a big fight..He heard me telling mom about the contest and then he just decided I can't go even though he knows how much its important to me!" Said Lucy after she wiped off her tears again.

"You told your mom?! And yeah..Well its your dad..What can you do about it.."

"Yeah I did but I didn't exactly tell her about the contest.."

"You lied?"

"Not really! I told her we would travel to UK to learn..That's not a lie, I mean if we go we would meet the boys and LEARN more about them! You get it? Its not technically a lie"

"Of course..And I felt weird that she agreed when you told her..Anyway I haven't told my parents..I am too scared, They would agree over ANYTHING except me traveling alone to another country..Just think about it, NO parents would agree"

".........Alright but still, I WILL enter the contest! Tomorrow I will write my name on that board and nothing will get in my way! Not dad, Not mom, No one!"

"Whatever you say..I am still gonna think more deeply about it.."

"Alright..See ya tomorrow"

"Bye!"

Lucy hung up and felt like she kinda scared Rebeka from her determination but she is not turning back! never!
She will do this, She has to..If she and Kathy are ready to give on their biggest dream just cos their parents are not encouraging them so be it, But she will never give up.

She slept for a few hours and woke up in her usual timing today..She thought and thought all night long about the contest and realized that its the right decision and that this is one chance she can NEVER waste.

She went downstairs and her eyes were red cos she cried for hours the other night so her mom was shocked.

"Oh God..Dear..What's wrong with your eyes?" she said looking worried.

Lucy looked angrily at her dad and said "Nothing."

"Nothing? Were you crying last night? Is it cos if your father?" she asked the last question in a whisper.

"Mom..Please! I gotta go to school..Bye!" Lucy said and got into the bus.

The trip was silent and when they reached the school and walked inside, Lucy imagined herself writing her name on that board and what will happen after that..Lucy and Kathy were gonna walk towards their Chemistry class but Lucy left them and walked into the cafeteria.

"Where are you going?" Asked Kathy.

"You know where I am going..Don't pretend to be stupid" Replied Lucy.

Lucy walked towards the board and held the pen tight..She waited for seconds.

"Are you sure you wanna do this?" asked Rebeka.

"Yeah!" then She written her name..It was probably one of the most tense moments of her life but she was determined to prove to her dad that she CAN make her dreams come true no matter how impossible they are.

Suddenly Rebeka written her name too and then Lucy turned out in shock.

"What......what did you just do?" asked Lucy.

"Don't pretend to be stupid..You know!" Replied Rebeka. "I am not gonna let you do this on your own, Its my dream as well".

Then they hugged each other and stared at Kathy.

"We took our decision and we are ready to face all the results if its gonna turn out badly" Said Lucy proudly. "What are YOU gonna do now?"

Kathy didn't reply and written her name as well.

Then all three of them hugged and secretly prayed that everything will turn out well.

They saw the names of all the girls in the meanies pack written on the board and the board was almost complete..When it does, They will have to write their articles. They were worried about the Meanies of course cos they will surely cheat and do anything possible to win but they didn't care. They made their decision and they will do this no matter what it takes.
