The Most Valuable Player

"I hope you can train Donello so he will get more medals next year."  Prince Ibarra spoke in a gentle tone like a loving father would to his daughter.

"Don't worry Dad.  I'll train him in archery and swimming."

Finally, the principal was called on stage to give out the most prestigious award of all, "The Most Valuable Athlete."

"It is my honor and privilege to call on the athlete who garnered the most medals during this year's sports fest.  Let me call on, the First Princess of Lireya, Amaya Rocas."

"Congratulations Aya.  I am so proud of you."  Marx looked at Amaya dotingly as he held her hand.  Amaya smiled back as she murmured a heartfelt 'thank you'. Amaya waited for her Daddy Ibarra and her Aunt Nelida and then they go up the stage together.
