Grand introduction

" Good morning all distinguished personalities and welcome to FIERCE grand reveal. We apologize for any inconveniences and late submission. Grand things takes time. I am Patricia Peyton with my partner Kiel Tan, CEOs of FIERCE".

My classmates stood and applauded me alongside our teacher and everyone followed. I glanced at the Dean and saw a look of contentment and "I'm proud of you".

...

On a grand platinum stage, where I stood, with darkly dim light as the moon reflected the beauty and shone, the dress was brought out. Long dress, thigh slit, flowerly ends and roses brightly placed on the end and edge of the dress. Ironed neatly as it flowed with the air and showed it beauty, the back was slit in a heart shaped. Little hearts were also shaped on the flurry white dress which represented freedom at last, the front line was opened in a V- line with off shoulders. It represented a flowery dress. Mixed with the scents of Lily in the valley and Iris, it exuded elegance, simplicity, domination, attention and strength.

Everyone awwwwed and ooohed seeing it as the projector turned on. I began explaining and presenting the meaning of the dress. The media took notes and the fashion companies couldn't wait to strike a deal with us. It's the only one in the world and I refused a do over . I personally want to hand the dress over to someone worthy of it. I couldn't wear it, it brought back a lot of memories. So for now,it was off the charts. People began bidding as though it were an auction but I simply ignored it and slightly bow before moving the dress backstage.

Other designs were shown and presented but they were all fascinated by the Starry Night and couldn't concentrate. Kiel came soon after to control the situation.

Backstage,I sat on a stool observing the dress in my presence. I clenched my fist then released an " ouch" . I glanced at my hand only to see bruises sustained during the making. I tried brushing the pain off but couldn't so, I ignored it dealing with it from within .

Sub chapter: Crossing paths.

Meanwhile, amongst the crowd, two guys seated where looking at the dress on the projector with questioning gaze. The one dressed in black, quietly sipped his red wine, his fingertips playing with the cup while the one dressed in a white suit and overcoats just grinned " she's going places brother" . The black dressed guy stood,his gaze fixated on the dress as he spoke..

" Success is not final, failure is not fatal it's the courage to do it that counts. Let's see if she can overcome all the hurdles and make it. And that would be a surprise seeing the kind of people she's surrounded by". His gaze sized the entire surrounding and the people. " A huge surprise at most but not all apples are rotten" his gaze fell on Axel and Kim with a side glance at Mason. " Perhaps not... Just perhaps ". The guy dressed in white also stood. " The time is far spent brother,we need to move. Such a shame to part with such antique wine though".

The black dressed scoffed" Then marry it " dropped the cup and turned to leave. The white dressed rolled his eyes and walked towards him. "You tend to be extra annoying you know" the guy replied. The black dressed grinned " just stating a fact you know". The white dressed kept talking while trying to catch up with the black dressed that he didn't notice the coming girl and ended up colliding with her. The black dressed halted, turned just in time to hold the girl's hand to prevent her fall " Our apologies". The white dressed almost lost his balance but was quick to compose himself and bowed slightly to the girl " My deepest apology". The girl bowed in return " No grudges held". The guys glanced at each other and left. The girl turned back to see them. They were different from the others and who are they exactly?

......

Entering into their car, the black dressed pressed his forehead to calm white looked spaced out " She's adorable though". The black guy glanced at him " Who? The white dressed smirked " Hazel ---, sorry, I meant Tricia". The black dressed smiled ferociously," you seem to want to die by Alexainder's hands huh" . The white dressed replied with a hint of hidden anger " Alexainder hadn't even talked to her yet, and I Al's have fe- " . He stopped short. " Have what huh, feelings, feelings". The guy in white named Lucas, looked away. " Keep a leash on your feelings Lucas,at least until you know what it means". Lucas lashed back at him. " Oh,so does Alex knows what it means huh, really.."

The black dressed rested his head and ignored him," just a matter of years..... A matter of time .... It will all be over... Soon enough.

Lucas looked away" driver, move...
