He must wait for the light to shine before showcasing the blank paperwork he produced.

In the Maritime world of art, Moyor has been the most important failed student of the moment. He was unable to pinpoint one single impact he has laid on the lives of people around him. His world was in a weird situation and to take things the way he likes instead of looking into the mind of those he was better than. Moyor knew he had to make his world a better one and must make people believe that he was not a failure and no one would ever place him as a failed being, so he had to find a way to join the upcoming competition which was organized by the state government just in the area of artwork.

His school happened to have students who were great artists in the maritime art world. They can art more than one's imagination. It was a funny situation as Moyor has not been the open type instead has been so timid and even was angry with himself for being the way he was.

Moyor must find a way to bring out and re-identify himself to the fullest. The principal of his school knew how good he was when it came to the aspect of artwork and was so furious for not seeing his name in the list of the students involved.

He called Moyor and asked him,

Son!!! I know your capacity and what you can do when it comes to the aspect of drawing. How come your name was not included?

Moyor, being the kind of timid being he was, could not give a concrete fact about why he felt reluctant to go for the competition, but was happy that someone remembered him. He said in return,

I don't have a passion for drawing since I am not outspoken. I cannot also talk in public despite being sound in class.

The principal tried hard to make him understand the fact that he can do something out of his talents.

Moyor!!! You are good and I cannot doubt that fact. The only person and the only student I have seen winning is you. Go for what would make your ability blow out and also show forth.

Out of his mind, he reluctantly went to the teacher's office which is in charge to register. Everyone had seen him as someone who cannot win the competition and so has lost hope in him instead of focusing mostly on those who can win.

At first, they started training them in school and also giving them different images to sketch. Moyor was not able to draw to the teacher's satisfaction and wanted to disqualify him. All his artwork was just blank. It seems there was nothing like a sketch in it, but he knew he had a drawing right on the paper he was given.

Three students including Moyor were selected for the competition. The other students as well as the fine art teacher tried to sort out the reason the principal allowed Moyor to be part of them, but were unable to come out with a tangible reason. Must it be a kind of favoritism or a kind of interest the principal has towards Moyor? No one knows.

The state government slated the competition day to be a day to mark the country's independence day. It was slated on October 1st which was Moyor's birthday and the state Governor's birthday.

It's time and the day has finally arrived. Moyor was frightened as he had never in his life been in the midst of a crowd. They were in the competition ground and fifteen schools were present. When the whole school was called out, Moyor, on seeing the Giants and the kind of students present, made him look just as if the ground should open for him to enter. Immediate sweat emanated from his body and his eyes were so red showing the sign of the rain wanting to drop any moment.

They were in the large hall built by the state government for event purposes. The hall was fully equipped with different kinds of lighting accessories. It was just as if they were all in a small London being inside the hall.

They were made to draw instead of to paint as stated since the ones involved would have the knowledge of sketching. They were given a white paper which seems not to reflect what they have drawn but can only be seen through a luminous process. No one knew this trick except the Governor.

The competition began and all the materials were provided. They started their respective drawings. The students were kept mute after seeing the fact that their drawings were not showing instead of disappearing. What kind of paper should this be? Most of them tried to force their papers but suddenly and mistakenly tore their papers.

When they were done, the best drawing was selected whereby no one was able to see Moyor's sketching. The other students forced their sketches out, but Moyor did not since he has this same character while sketching at home. No one was able to read through his sketch which left his paper blank.

The light was switched off since a projector was to be used to bring out the Governor's achievements during his reign. All the sketches were removed except for Moyor's sketch. It was a mistake by the assessor. When it's your turn or time to shine, no one would stop you from reaching your peak. It's time for Moyor to come out of his shell.

The projector was directed towards the whiteboard and what was seen was a sketch of the governor's portrait. It was so real and everyone thought it was from the projector's light. After all the research, it was discovered that Moyor's sketch was still on the board. The already-thought-blank sheet became the perfect drawing and the best among all.

The deliberate act of the governor came out in the favor of Moyor.
