Chen was very interested in Jelma's unique
and often tragic background. He listened intently and nodded as she explained
her early South Korean life, the murder by her parents by North Korean
terrorists, life with her aunt Tooka in Japan and her avid interest in all
things fashion. Fashion had saved the young girl, saved her from the darkness
that was the loss of her parents. It grew from a life saver to a business
venture that touched many people. Chen commented how he'd read two reviews on
Jelma's dresses; one was while she was with her ex employee Washi. The second
was of Kazuki; it was by far the best review.
The ladies were working on a marketing plan
for the first two dresses that Kazuki had produced for Chen. They were to be
sold in top Chinese stores. Kazuki could only produce a limited number of
dresses each year due to the small number of staff.
After the boss Jelma, there was Sera, Kaito
and Chiyo. Each dress was handmade and there were only so many hours in the
day. Jelma had a plan to get round this:
"I have a plan. It goes like this: Chen
has six fashion houses making things as diverse as children's footwear to
teenage sportswear. One of his fashion houses, called Loquat, makes women's
clothing. I propose that this factory will make two thousand each of our first
two dresses. That's four thousand individual dresses. It's well within Loquat's
production capability. Chen informed me they can make ten thousand a week at
peak demand. This is to keep up with demand and free us up here to do new
projects. What do you think?"
"Yes, it was. We took off in twenty
eight hundred feet. Should of been three thousand plus. Not sure Cessna would
believe us!" Chen shook his head in wonder. "This is a stunning
aeroplane. Stunning."
"Really? Looks like we almost got
killed. You really love your plane, don't you?" Jelma was happy to be
alive, shocked at what they'd done and annoyed he loved his jet!
"We made it. Yes, I took a big risk. And
we got away with it. Yes, I like my plane but don't love it. I like it as it's
a cool machine. I love you Jelma. I love only you my dear."
Can't
give Chen hard time now. Not after a
take off like that. My emotions are going crazy, Jelma
thought. She looked out of the window. Lights from buildings and streetlamps
were very close. "We're so low. I can see people on the street!"
