Foreword

 

 

My name is Im Yoona.

I'm rich, smart, pretty.. but I'm a snob.

 

His name is Lee Jonghyun.

He's rich, smart, handsome.. but he's my rival.

 

Yes, he's a one good looking guy. Too handsome for a human being. He's almost perfect. Every girl wants him. And only if not he's my rival, I maybe one of those girls who are head over heels inlove with him.

And yes again, he is my rival. He wants to compete with me in everything and always tries to defeat me. But fortunately, he just ended up being the second best. Jus like in our class, I am the top 1 and he's just behind me, the top 2. In our school organization, I am the appointed President and he's just a follower, the Vice-President.

And now, even in my favorite hobby, he's trying to beat me.

But no! I'm not going to let myself be pressured in Photography just because of him.

 

yes, I admit, I'm really pressured.

 

I know I'm not suppose to feel this way, but since I don't want him to taste victory, I'm doing my very best.

Just why the hell did that guy chose to compete with me? Does he not know that no one exceeds my pride? I'm not going to let anyone steal my crown. I won't let him defeat me. Not even once.

 

Anyway, as I have said, I will not let him win over Photography. This has been my hobby since I was a kid, and that's the reason why I feel excited and hyper during our Photography class. Even my professor commended my passion for it and saw a potential from me so he let me join the contest in our university.

They will give you a certain topic and you will express your thoughts through the use of Photographs. You can have any model that you want as long as you can legibly elaborate your topic.

My assigned topic is HAPPINESS.

 

At first, I just really want to show my passion for Photography. I don't care whether I win or lose.

Not until I heard that Lee Jonghyun is also a participant in the said contest.

 

That guy is really getting into my nerves. Why can't he accept the fact that he is just and always will be the second best.

He better prepare his self as I'm going to make sure that after this contest, he will never try to contend with me anymore. No one will defeat the one and only Im Yoona, The Great. bwahahaha!

 

I put my time and efforts to choose my piece. I searched for the best model that will amaze everyone including that Jonghyun.

Brace yourself Lee Jonghyun! You're going to eat dust! 

 

When the day of the contest arrived, I feel really confident with my presentation. 

One by one, the finalists went to the stage to present their shots.

 

I glanced at Jonghyun's direction to see his expressions.

Huh! He's looking nervous, he might realized he doesn't stand chance and thinking of just giving up.

 

When it's now finally my turn to present, I once again took a glance at him and then I smirked. 

My shot was flashed at the wide screen for the judges and the audience to see it. I heard them saying 'wow' in amusement.

 

It's a simple shot of the street children playing in the road side. But what made it special is the smiles and laughs found in the faces of every children in the picture.

I grabbed the mic and started to explain..

"As you can see, this is a group shot of unfortunate children who were forced to work just to sustain their own necessities. But as you notice, these kids are all smiling and some are even laughing. By the way, my topic is Happiness. Yes, we may think that these people are just kids. Try to give them toys and they will smile. Try to give them food and they will be happy. But if we deliberate it furtherly, they are not an ordinary kids. They have a burden and a big responsibility in their respective lives. And despite of the poverty that they are experiencing, they still manage to smile. They haven't forget how to laugh. They still have hopes in their mind. They believe that someday their life will get better. At the end of the day, a famous philospher once said, Happiness is still the goal of life."

I smiled as they all clapped with my presentation. Some even gave me a standing ovation. I feel so satisfied. 

I looked at Jonghyun and I smirked again. I'm feeling the arrogance. haha! 

 

After quite a moment, Jonghyun's name was called and he went in the stage. But before he had his presentation, he looked at me and he smiled.

Omo! why did I suddenly feel nervous? 

I swear it's not a smirk that I used to do when showing him my arrogance.

It's a smile. A breath-taking smile that made my heart to palpitate and my knees to weaken.

Aish! what am I thinking? he's just using a new tactic to defeat me.

 

I quickly avoided his gaze and focused my eyes on the wide screen. Upon seeing his piece, my eyes widened and my jaw dropped. I can hear my heart going crazy and I feel more nervous.

I turned to see the audience as they were astonished with what they are seeing. Others are even shouting and screaming out of joy.

He grabbed the mic and looked at me before speaking. He smiled again.

"My topic is INSPIRATION." 

The judges smiled upon hearing his first statement, the audience too became wild and they start to make noise out of giggles. While me, I am stoned. I can't move and my breathing became uneven.

"I believe every art comes from an Inspiration. If there is no inspiration, what does the artist can produce? Even the first rated and top artist have their own motivation.. which is called an Inspiration. Just like me, I am not able to do the these things and excel from them if not because of my Inspiration. It encourages me to do things, rather, SHE. She is the main reason why I do these things. Ladies and gentleman, I'm proud to shoe you my Inspiration." he said pointing at the wide screen but still looking directly at my eyes. 

Up until now, I still can't believe that the picture in the wide screen is me.

It's a stolen picture where I am about to enter the classroom with my earphones on. It's slightly on a side view and my hair flips a bit as it follows the direction of the wind.  

 

"Others may think that she is my Inspiration because I want to exceed her. But no, it's not like that. I became good because I'm inspired. Inspired by her. I admit, I like her... a lot. And I think it's about time for her to know that i'm not trying to defeat her. All I want is her attention to be mine and to always be by her side." He continued while still smiling shyly.

 

I can still feel my heart beating so fast and my knees are now wiggling. 

"By the way, for those who do not know her, She is Im Yoona, my Inspiration." he added.

 

At that moment, I feel really embarassed. But as he stared into my eyes, I can see sincerity on his eyes and it makes me happy. Plus, his smiles are simply breath-taking. I feel like having a heart attack. 

When he returned to his seat, I did not dare to look at him. I remained at my seat and quietly waited for the results.

My mind is still pre-occupied that I'm not thinking about the results anymore. I'm not expecting to win anymore. I don't care who will win anymore.

 

When they annouced the results, I got the 2nd place.

It's my first time to be 'second' but it feels nothing for me. I accepted it with all my heart.

 

Also, when the first place was annouced, I am not surprise to hear it was Jonghyun. But what astound me is the thing he said..

"I'm really thankful that I got the first place, but I want to give this to the person who became the reason why I got 1st. If not because of her, I am not able to produce a good shot. To Im Yoona-ssi, I can't do these things if not because of you, this is for you. Can you please go upstage?" 

Once again my hear beats faster. Yah Lee jonghyun, do you really want me to have a heart attack?

I don't have plans to go upstage but my friends pushed me towards him which left me no choice.

He offered his hand to help me. By the time I touched his hand, I felt the electricity. and my heart became wilder. 

I am about to release his hand but he just tightened the grip.

 

While we're on stage, my eyes are focused in him. I can't hear a single word he's saying but I'm staring at his face. Then he suddenly turned to me and motioned a killer smile.

The audience clamour in excitement as he handed me his medal.

It was then followed by a very loud music to finally close and end the program. 

I remained stunned in my position still looking at him and the hyper audience. Still can't believe what just happened.

 

I regain my senses when he squeezed my hand he's been holding since before. 

He leaned closer to me and whispered something. But because the music is really loud, I did not hear what he said.

 

"what did you say?" I asked.

 

He leaned closer again and whispered. But the mic suddenly produced loud sound so I didn't hear it again.

 

"what?" I asked again like I'm a deaf.

 

This time, he grabbed the mic and said..

 

"I Love You Im Yoona."
