I asked Hana what she was wearing tonight. And, once again, she and I are thinking along the same lines. Total glam tonight. Tt takes hours to get ready, but when I’m done, I will definitely be intimidating unworthy males.

Tonight, I decide on a strapless, hunter green floor length dress. This one has a black-beaded applique on the left side of the torso from b*reas*t to waist, and a black sheer V between the b*reas*ts with additional beads. The rest of the dress looks like it is wrapped around my torso and hips in layers before falling straight in crepe skirt with a slit to mid-thigh. I’ve matched it with a v-shaped diamond necklace and dangle earrings.

When I meet up with Hana, she’s wearing a strapless floor-length light taupe dress. Her dress also has a beaded torso, but her beads are silver and cover the entire top of her dress, dipping down below her waist on the left side to connect with the top of the slit which comes to mid-thigh. Her top will cause some turmoil among the males again tonight as it is sheer between her b*reas*ts and waist.

Where I have my hair up again to show off’ my jewels, hers is down, showing off her glorious, thick, light-brown locks. We’re both sporting stilettos to make us as tall as possible, again to intimidate as many of our suitors as we can.

Tonight, there is definitely more tension in the air. Two of the females have had their lotteries pulled, leaving only one more before Hana’s. Hana’s lottery will be large but won’t encompass all of the claimants. There are those that haven’t been pulled into a lottery, haven’t been pulled for sparring or a social event and the frustration is palpable in the air when we walk into the main house.
