STACEY.

Four years later...

     "Can you believe it? He wants to get married to me, I mean, he literally gave me the surprise of my life, I still can't believe it, " Mia squealed, showing me her engagement ring.

I had never seen her this happy, not since I knew her.

I unfolded my hands from my lap, a grin plastered on my face, "so, you guys are getting married in a year?" I question.

"Yes, yes we are! " she squealed.

"Oh my God, "I gasped, Mia hated men, with all her heart, however, everything changed when she met her boyfriend two years ago, he was everything she wanted in a man.

Crazy.

Hot.

Charming, not to mention, he was too in love with her. "That guy is whipped, all because of you, and you are whipped, all because of him. I still find it hard to believe you both want to get married,"

Mia chuckled, "well, you have to believe it Girlie, I will be a married woman in a year. I can't wait, " she squealed.

"I can't wait either, "I squealed with her, we didn't care that people stared at us as we hugged each other and jumped around, we were too happy.

Besides, the whole building was mine, so, I was free to do anything I wanted.

Including jumping around like a five year old.

"Alright, that's enough, let's speak more serious matter, " she deadpanned.

"Okay, "I nodded, releasing her from our hug, we both sat back on the couch, facing each other.

"STEDMIA had been on the top of the fashion market  chain since we started it, however, we have declined by ten percent since the beginning of last month, and it has something to do pertaining the new dress we made that gained popularity, " 

"New dress? " I frowned, thinking of which of the dresses it was, I took out my IPad and scrolled through it for the new designs for the month.

" this one, " Mia pointed to the Purple halter neck dress.

"the new designer sketched it and I reviewed it before it was released. It had no problem," I crossed my legs.

STEDMIA, was the fashion line company I created, Ed's designs were so rich, we got on the top of the fashion world pretty quick thanks to her design.

Gold F and Scarlet dream In particular.

I only recently accepted other designer to work for me since Ed was still in school and I didn't want to overwhelm her.

Or turn her hobby into a burden for her.

Over the past years, our designs came the best and we won lots of awards, it wasn't the first time we we're experiencing a decline in our market.

"What about is the reason for the decline? I mean, we still have other designs like it that we haven't released yet?. "

" TG. Claims the dress was plagiarized by us, "

"What? Are they kidding me, we have been working on the dress collection for half a year, half a year Mi! " I fumed, shooting up my feet, "Ed spent a month designing half of it, I designed the other half except one and they all have the same qualities, how could it be plagiarized, " my voice had been raised by the time I finished speaking.

All eyes turned on us, I closed my eyes, "deep breaths Sta, deep breaths, " I muttered. "You know what? Let's go discuss this in my office, "

Mia nodded, then we both headed to my office, when we got there, I sat down.
