Fourteen Steps to Happiness

Description

 

Happiness.

What is happiness? Yumi thinks as she stares at the ugly, dark red slowly trickling down her forearm.

She sacrificed a lot to be perfect. But maybe she sacrificed too much.

Why are you so happy? Yumi thinks as she stares at the tall, chestnut haired boy grinning back at her.

He’s determined to make her happy. No matter what.

 

But people forget that happiness doesn't last forever. 

Forever is just a word.

He knows this best, but he can't help it.

 

"I'm so sorry Yumi...this wasn't supposed to happen."

Chapter 7: Please save her at all cost, dear Chanyeol. Yumi should listen to her teacher and Chanyeol. She needs to let herself free of any insecurities and worries in life. She may be a good student but she has insecurities and I hope Chanyeol will be able to help her overcome it. Her scars would be etched onto her skin for eternity. But the inner scars can heal through time. Ah my thoughts are everywhere! I just love this story so much and want her to end up with Chanyeol.
There. I made my point.

Chapter 5: How do people generally define perfection? I think in Yumi's case, her scars are her insecurities, and yet they can also be her perfection. Because no one is completely flawless in this world, Yumi isn't perfect in all aspects as well. I just hope someone *coughchanyeolcough* can and will see through her. :) amazing job so far!

Chapter 4: Good luck on your exams! And in all honesty, I'm not offending or judging anything about you or this story, but usually third person perspective allows the reader to get a better insight of all characters rather than just one. First person POVs aren't that bad either but in my opinion, it's much more difficult to write because you want to express the character's feelings and thoughts more. Anyhow, I really like this story and even if you changed the structure and whatnot, I'll still be reading this :D
