The Dress

A Sticky Situation

It was just a normal day in the shopping mall, Bella was walking through the most expensive store there 'Jasabelles' they make really expensive dresses that she could never afford, but they were fun to look at.
Bella walked into the store with her ice cream cone from the cafeteria. One thing you should know about Bella is she is very clumsy and should have figured that a situation like this would happen. As she walked around the store looking at all the dresses beautiful colors, she wasn't looking at the floor, more importantly, the wire strung across the floor.
All in an instant Bella went toppling to the ground, and her ice cream ended up on the purple sparkly dress that was right in its path.
"What happened here!" a tall slim woman with black hair, wearing a name tag with the name 'Tina' printed on it walked over.
Tina immediately looked down at Bella who was still on the ground staring at the dress in shock.
"I'm so sorry! I didn't mean to do to it." Bella felt horrible, scared of the consequences that would occur from ruining a really expensive dress that was way out of her price range.
"You young miss, have to pay for this dress, this creation costs $3,000. I expect to have the money within the next few months." Tina walked away swiftly, probably to find someone to clean up the mess Bella had made.
Bella stared at Tinas retreating figure wondering how she will pay for this dress which she couldn't pay for in the first place.
As Bella made her way home she was thinking of all the possible ways to make money fast, she could do yard work in the neighborhood, do her brother's chores, sell some of her clothes? But none of these options would make her enough money.
Suddenly a thought hit her, BAKING. She had always loved it and her family always thought she could make huge money from it.
She rushed home and started making a plan. She made pages on Facebook, Instagram, and all other platforms, and asked everyone she knew to spread the word. She posted pictures of past cakes, pies, and cupcakes along with the prices of all the items.
When Bella woke up the next morning her phone had a lot of notifications on it. she read through all of them and headed to the store to get supplies for her orders. she did the math. Once she finished the orders from this month if it carries in the way it is. She would have enough money within the next 4 months to pay for the dress.
Bella had spent the next months getting as many orders as she possibly could. After 4 months she finally had enough money to pay for the dress and had some money left over. Bella now knows she should never bring food into a store, and if she works hard enough she can achieve her goals.
