My brother Patrick sat on his bed and waited patiently for me to begin. As I held the speech in my right hand, I felt the page crinkle between my fingertips. I read my speech loudly, but my brother shook his head disapprovingly. He told me I didn’t sound confident enough. With a heavy heart, I knew I was in for a long day of practicing.

Write a few lines of dialogue based on this narrative.

"Okay, start whenever you're ready, Em."
"Good morning fellow students. As your class president, i would like to...um...bring up a very...uh...pressing matter. There has been an...um-"
"Stop right there."
"Why? Did I do something wrong?"
"Well, not necessarily, but you're lacking something."
"I thought it was a good intro, but maybe I shouldn't get to the point so quickly-"
"No, no, the actual speech is great, but you seem to be really nervous."
"Patrick, I have to recite this from memory to my entire class! Of course I'm nervous!"
"It's perfectly okay to be nervous but its something else... Wait! I got it! Its your confidence. You are the class president, take charge! Its a great speech, but deliverance is what makes it an amazing speech."
