Queen Bee 10 Epilogue

Every girls are gathering around the bulletin board looking at the poster, Ms. University 2017 Pageant. After three long years, the Student Affairs have decided to conduct again a simple but fun beauty pageant.

Karen Romero is now the Student Council President. Siya ang namamahala sa registry. And, Candy Romano went to her booth for signing up. Samantalang si Maggie, nagiisip pa ng mabuti kung sasali ba siya o hindi. Then, she decided not to join the beauty pageant. She thinks she had enough of that.

She wanted to concentrate on her studies first to be the summa cum laude.

And, a brunette girl with blue eyes, who seemed to be the new comer, approached the booth for signing up.

She introduced herself, "Hi, I'm Sophie de Guzman."

Natawa na lang si Karen nang narinig niya magsalita si Sophie.

Sabi ni Karen, "OMG! You looked like a foreigner but you have a strong Visayan accent. Ok, you are in."

Sophie had just ignored her opinion and walked away.

Sabi ni Candy, "Ya know, she reminds me of Rachel, except for her strong Visayan accent."

Sumangayon din si Karen.

Maymaya, nakita ni Maggie na umiiyak si Sophie sa sulok.

Tinanong niya ito, "Hi, Miss. Bakit ka umiiyak?"

Sabi ni Sophie, "Pinagtatawan kasi nila ako. Masama ba sumali ng beauty pageant maski Visaya man ako."

And, Maggie tried to console Sophie, "Huwag kang magalala. I will be your mentor. Tutulungan kita para manalo sa pageant."

Natuwa si Sophie. Dahil alam niyang nahuli niya sa bitag si Maggie.
