Participation Trophy 소설 & 이야기

Then his eyes drifted to the wall opposite them where the shelf lines with trophies stood. Gold and silver, tall and small–the trophies were styled from different sports and competitions, engraved with years and years of victories. Without saying anything, Blake stood up and walked toward the shelf, resting a hand on the tallest trophy. “You know…” he began, smiling faintly, "...this one was for the regional football championship." His fingers brushed over the engraved plate of another. “This one was for basketball. And that over there was for swimming, and the other, track." Ethan watched him quietly as he soon noticed Blake wasn't really looking at the trophies. He was looking through them

Ngunit mas maingay parin ang iba na tulad ng mga kaibigan niya. Everyone congratulate him and the others after they receive their trophy from that game. Isa na doon ay ang mga kababaihan na patay na patay para lang pansinin niya ang kalto. "For you." Napaangat siya ng tingin ng may nagabot sa kanya ng isang ball gold trophy. "Pardon?"

Four ladies in tight-fitting outfits followed the handsome trio, three ladies were carrying trays with shiny pins that will be given to the players, and the fourth one held onto a trophy for the winner. The trophy looked like a massive golden cup with two handles, one on each side. Talia stood with Lulu on the side and clapped as Drake put pins on the jerseys of the Dark Howlers team. Talia told herself not to think about Drake, but he was right there, standing tall and handsome, and she couldn't stop staring at his back. Alpha Maddox and Axel were putting pins on teams that were representing their packs. It was all very official, and no one spoke until Alphas finished putting all the pins.

Our lips soon parted again and our foreheads were touching each other, both gasping for breath. The rules of the game were explained to us, let's just take the lead in taking the trophy that is floating in the sea and whoever gets it first wins, there are three trophies, the Gold color is the 1st winner the Silver is for 2nd place, Bronze with Silver is for 3rd place. But before getting the trophies, only 5 couples have to be left, so we have to beat the other couples who can get the trophy. Thyro held my hand tightly, squeezing it several times. We were given our respective life jackets, and immediately boarded the motor boat.

If there's one trophy that he wanted to get, then possessing a great power within HongYoonChoi organization will do. "Wow! That's a perfect shot, Murgine!" his friend, who's a member of Choi clan, clapped his hand. Murgine grinned in triumph while putting his riffle down. "You're all ready for the paint shooting game. I'm sure you'll win the first place this year." Murgine chuckled, shaking his head. "Don't be too sure. Even if Jack won't participate, the second and third heir might join the game." "The third heir and second heir? That's impossible," his friend laughed at the idea. "They never participated before. Not even once."

I make my way over the sand to the platform and step up, squinting a little as a spotlight hits my eyes. “Congratulations, dear lady!” exclaims Nico, as he hands me a large silver trophy in the shape of a heart. “Let me give you both your crowns.…” Crowns? Before I can protest, Nico places silvered plastic crowns on our heads. He deftly fastens a satin sash over my shoulder, then steps back. “The winning couple!” The audience claps again and I give a rictus smile into the lights. This is hideous. A trophy, a crown, and a sash? I feel like a beauty queen without the beauty.

He looked at me like I was crazy now. “And do you want to know what it means to not touch the trophy?” He laughed mockingly. “It means he isn’t going to be eligible for kingship. This is his coronation year, Sky. And that trophy is the first transfer of power.” Instantly, something struck in my brain. The trophy. It meant kingship too. Also—one of the reasons why they don’t want him to touch it? Because he automatically becomes the Alpha of Silverfangs? And any attack on him then, as a ruling alpha may cause a war between the south and the north?

However the moment she turned, her smile turned stiff, the injury that rippled in the depths of his eyes, suffocated a corner in her heart. Once the video ended, there was pin drop silence. Everyone’s mind was still reeling with the tantivy of hooves. It was no different than watching a world class horse race. “Although, the results are obvious let me announce and call the three teams to come and receive the price collectively. Along with the prize, we have included 3 laminated pictures and fridge magnets as with every leg of this event. Also, as our appreciation for all the teams that bravely completed the event, we have a cash prize of 500 dollars, the laminated pictures and fridge magnets

As I looked at the pink decorations in the black-and-white office, I felt my heart sink to my stomach. Edmund and I both loved he minimalist style. Whether at home or in the office, there were only simple black and white tones. He once told me that if he saw other colors in the office, he would feel so irritated that he might go crazy. I looked around the office, and my eyes landed on the golden trophy. That golden trophy was the result of my and Edmund's joint effort. For the highest honor that came with winning the Pack Alliance Design Competition, Edmund and I overworked ourselves every single day back then. I had even collapsed many times at the design desk.
