Debate Day

The sound of shuffling papers and soft murmurs filled the brightly lit meeting room. The day Dawson had been eagerly preparing for with his debate team had arrived. It had been three months of long nights studying and practicing.

He glanced over at the other team who were speaking softly to each other in a huddle. "Why do they seem so calm and collected?" he muttered to himself.

He suddenly felt a strong sense of uneasiness emerge in the pit of his stomach, and he looked to see if he could gauge how his team was feeling.

"Are you doing alright, Dawson?" his teammate Elaine asked. "Ready for this?"

Dawson nodded his head quickly in reply.

The moderator made a brief announcement, and Dawson approached the podium, rubbing the palms of his hands on his pant legs.

After two hours of intense debate rounds, one of the judges stood to announce the winner. Dawson's team erupted in cheers and began giving each other high fives. Dawson could not hide his relief and elation.
