Within

Prologue

This is my first time, in writing and posting a short story here in Wattpad.

Best of luck, to me.

"Move a little bit more to the right."

"Yes Ma'am, please, just a little more."

"Yes, that's it, in three, two, one..."

*click click*

I was surprised; a girl walked by, and was caught by the shot I just took.

I stare at her, and she did the same. She was dressed in a hair salon uniform.

"I'm sorry, I didn't-"

I smiled at her. Her beauty is really captivating.

"It's okay."

She smiled back, and I wave good-bye.

I went straight home, after the photo shoot. I hurriedly developed the pictures. I'm anxious to see the picture of her that I accidentally captured. She looks beautiful, just a simple smile, the sudden glimpse of her makes me happy.

The next day, I searched the salon near the area where I saw her. She was drying the hair of the female customer inside. I walked in without having a second thought. I saw her looked in my way and smiled, as I sat down assist by another hair dresser.

I took off my hat, and the other female hair dresser prepared the things needed to cut my hair. I closed my eyes, and relaxed as she begun to wash my hair. I felt a cold bubbly liquid in my eyes, and reached for my handkerchief to wipe it. The salon officer in charge was telling someone behind me to say sorry for what happen, as I continue to wipe my eyes.

I looked behind me, and I saw her, it was the pretty girl yesterday.

"It's okay, I was surprised, but a bubble can't hurt."

She smiled, and I was glad that my hair dresser was her.

After I got my hair cut, I went back to work at my photo studio. My client now, is a business man who sells motorcycles, and he wants me to capture the best picture for his advertisement.

"Sir, someone is looking for you."

"I'm working at the moment, I can't face and talk to you, but if it's okay to you, you can talk right there, I'll listen."

"You forgot your hat at the salon earlier."

I hastily turned around, and found her holding my hat. I greeted her with a smile.

"Thank you..."

I just can't stop smiling and admiring her.

I crazy idea popped up in the back of my mind. Thinking that this is my only chance, I grabbed it.

I told my staff to move the motorcycle to the side, packed up the other equipment, and we're done for the day. I let her stay, and redesign my studio, and made her a model. I just like to look at her, have more of her pictures with me, and so I started to work again, but now I feel blessed to have her be my model.

At first she's shy and doesn't want to look at the camera, but as the time goes by, her nervousness was lessened and she started smiling.

She even volunteered to change into another costume, I took more pictures of her and she enjoyed and plays with the camera for hours. This is one of the best days I ever had since I started working as a professional photographer.

"Yes."

I asked her to go out with me, after our photo shoot.

Being a professional photographer also has advantages. My client gave me a motorcycle, as a gift together with the payment of the pictures I've took.

We went for a ride, but we ended up registering just for fun, in a motorcycle race. I wrote our names, we both raced and got in the finals.

"We won!"

It's my first time in a race, especially with someone I love. We celebrate out victory and had a few drinks.

"Thank you, for everything today and for taking me home. Have a safe trip back."

She wave good-bye and I headed on my way home. I reached home, took a bath and changed my clothes. I can't seem to calm down. I decided to develop the picture of her that I took today.

Seeing her smile, being with her, hearing her laughs and a whole day just the two of us, there is nothing more I want in my life.

"Yes, hello?"

She called me, just to make sure I got home safe and say goodnight.

*tug*

"AHHHHH!!!"
