Fashion?

As Jen walked away from her friends she decided to go to the part of the mall that none of her friends ever ventured. She wanted some alone time. This part of the mall was so new to her. She never realized that there were so many stores, there was even a store that sold only soaps. As she walked past each store admiring the signs and logos she ran into someone. When she looked up she noticed it was one of those guys who give you a sample of their products. He was a darker guy with black hair, brown eyes and perfect teeth. He smiled at her and Jen couldn't help but smile back.

"Would you like to try our product?" The guy asked, with almost a spanish accent. "We give you samples of our hair care products, nail products and make-up. I can give you a sample of what your nails can be done like and give you tips on how to do your make-up and hair just perfect"

"Oh," Jen giggled. "No thanks, I don't do the make-up thing." Jen started to walk past him.

"Wait, you're such a natural beauty, and I bet you have such a nack for fashion, just give it one try" the guy grabbed Jen's hand. Jen blushed, she thought he was pretty cute and he was calling her pretty. This kind of thing never happened every day so why wouldn't she give it a shot?

"Alright, I'll let you, I mean... If I don't like it it's not permanent right?" Jen smiled and let the guy do her nails, make-up and hair. He handed her a mirror.

"Wow, it's so pretty" said the guy. "I'll write down a couple of make-up types for you. What I've done really brings out your natural beauty. By the way, my name is Estaurdo."

"Wow, nice name," Jen blushed again at the thought of this guy getting personal to the point of giving his name. "It sounds kinda exotic. My name's Jen... just plain Jen" Jen giggled.

"Jen... I like!" Estaurdo exclaimed. "Here's your tips, we usually charge people for the tips but because you've been such a nice girl, yours is free." Estaurdo smiled at her.

"Thanks!" Jen smiled back. She turned to walk away. As she walked away she unfolded the piece of paper that Estaurdo passed to her. The tips were written out in such elegant hand writing and right at the bottom was a number. Next to the number was wrote "call me, Estaurado."

Jen left the mall. When she got home she decided to jump into her PJs and get into bed, but she couldn't sleep. She was up, tossing and turning, thinking about what Estaurdo had said. She looked like she had a nack for fashion. Jen decided she wouldn't sleep. She jumped out of bed and drew out a picture of a dress she had a picture of in her mind. The dress was short with a chain and long frills hanging around. It was black and had a hot pink matching shirt with black rims near the arms and neck. She thought it was so cute that she spent the rest of the night up sewing, creating the vision she had of this beautiful outfit.

Jen was so pleased with her design that she decided she would wear it the next day. When she got to the mall she went straight to where Estaurdo was the day before. She acted casual of course, not like she was trying to meet up with him or anything. As she walked past she noticed that Estaurdo had a friend working with him and by the looks of it a couple of other friends were hanging around. Business looked slow today.

"Hey Jen!" Estaurdo called out to her when he noticed she was walking past. "Come over here, I want you to meet some of my friends." Jen walked over to where the booth was set up.

"Hi" Jen smiled.

"Hi Jen, this is Ricky, this is Francey and this is Georgina" Estaurdo said pointing out his friends.

"Wow, I dig the outfit. Where'd you get it? I'd love to have one like it" Georgina said admiring the excellent stitching.

"Thanks" said Jen blushing. "I made it myself."

"REALLY?" Francey was shocked. Francey was one of those girls who you wouldn't expect to have anything intellegent to say. She sat twirling her long hair around her finger and blowing bubbles with her gum. She wore big hoop earrings, jewelery on every inch of her arms and neck, a short dress and belly top. She was stick skinny and looked like something out of a Cover Girl ad. "Jen, I'll pay you big bucks if you make me an outfit like that, except I would die if it were lime green instead of pink." Francey smiled.

"Really? Sure, I can do that. I'll get at that tonight. That'll be no problem... Wait... You're willing to pay? how much are we talking?" Jen was amazed that someone was willing to pay for her design.

"Since it's your design and it's going to be so unique that there's only going to be one other suit like it in the world, I will pay $130, and yes, that's Canadian money. The greens, the reds and the blues." Francey smiled. "Oh, and if you put a little itsy F in nice cursive on the left breast, I'll pay and extra purple... yes, that's right, and extra $10."

"WOW!" Jen was in shock. "I'll get right on that.

Estaurdo was smiling from ear to ear. "Jen, you're a natural. Listen, if you wouldn't mind, I would like to hire you. You see, I am the manager of Beauty Basics. We are trying to set up a little shop right here in your mall. Like I said, I am the manager and the founder. Georgina here is in charge of our scents and perfumes, Francey is in the hair department and Ricky here is the best make-up and nail artist you'll find. We want to bring you on board. Make a couple more outfits like that and our whole team can have one, teach others to make your designs and we can soon sell them."

"Wow!" Jen gasped under her breath. "This is all amazing, and I don't know what to say. It's all kinda fast. Besides, you guys aren't located here, that means I would have to move."

"I know, that's a downfall. We're located in Victoria, B.C. Are you sure there's nothing that can be worked out?" Estaurdo was persistant, he really wanted Jen's talent on his team.

"Victoria, My dad lives there. This is so awesome. He's been bugging me to move out with him and finish my last year of school out there. Can I accept the job even though I'm in high school? I mean, I could work after school and stuff." Jen was starting to get excited.

"Sure, why not? We're only gonna be testing the clothes at first and by the time you're finished school we'll have our clothes section in full swing. Jen, you're hired" Estaurdo smiled at her.

3 Years Later

"Jen!" Jen's father yelled, "You have a letter from that Top Model thing you auditioned for."

Jen ran downstairs and grabbed the letter from her father's hand. She was waiting for this letter for over two monthes now. She couldn't contain her excitement. She ripped the letter open and started to read.

"Congratulations Jennifer Masterson, You have been accepted to join us in Toronto for the finals of Canada's Next Top Model. You have a great look and we would like to see you make it far. The top thirty will be hard but we're sure you've got what it takes to make it all the way. Sincerely, Jay. P.S. We loved your outfit, thanks for letting us know you created it. We wouldn't mind an outfit made for one of our top 6 photo shoots, CityTV says they'll pay big bucks."

Jen started jumping up and down and squeeling. She couldn't believe what she had just read. She had travelled all the way from Ontario three years ago to get started in the fashion industry. Now, at the age of nineteen she was going to be on a Top Model show. She was going to be competeing against the most beautiful in Canada to claim the title of Canada's Next Top Model. She couldn't believe it. She wrapped her arms around her dad's neck. Her dad had tears in his eyes.

"I can't believe it," Jen's dad said through his tears. "Wait, I can. My beautiful little girl, all grown up. She's gonna be a model." Her dad kissed her on the head.

7 Years Later

Jen won Canada's Next Top Model. She went on to be very successful with a lot of ads and commercials under her belt. She soon became the star of a big Canadian drama series and decided she wanted to move on to hosting her own talk show. "Mornings With Masterson" was an instant hit and the name Jennifer Masterson was soon a household name, not only in Canada, but most parts of the United States as well.

Jen's interviews took her to Toronto once again. She decided to take a trip to the mall she used to work at ten years prior. She couldn't believe she was back here. Has she walked through the door she held her breath.

"The Penalty Box... WOW!" Jen gasped. "So many memories, I can't believe this shop is still around. I gotta go in." She stepped through the doors. It was amazing to be back. Suddenly Jen noticed someone. "Woah, is that... no, it can't be... wait... it's..."
