"Sure!" Ivy beamed. "Layla, if you are working so much, do you even have tto date someone?"
Layla blushed. "Why are you bringing that up all of a sudden? Hayden isn't dating either!"
"You searched for suitors all over the world a while back and | saw it on the news," Ivy said. "Have you found anyone you like?"
"It's difficult! A lot of the guys were great, but just not my cup of tea. You might still be too young to understand what | mean... Since a lot of the

on her prior experience.
"You should look on your own, then! You are so pretty and talented. I'm sure you will find someone," Ivy encouraged.
Layla scowled. "I plan to move out, Ivy. | haven't told Mom and Dad, but | think that I'm still single partly because I've been living here all my life. They

Ivy nodded. "You need to stay safe if you are living alone, though.”
"Don't worry! I'll be careful.”
Layla drove Ivy to a high-end dress retailer and the owner, who knew Layla, greeted them enthusiastically.
"Any new dresses?" Layla asked as she showed Ivy around.
"Yeah. They are on the second floor." The owner scanned Ivy and asked, "Ms. Tate, is this your friend?"

"She is closer than a friend," Layla said, knowing that Ivy did not wish for others to know who she was.
Ivy blushed at Layla's words.
"I knew you two were close when you walked in here hand in hand!" The owner took them to the second floor and showed them one of the dresses.
"This is our new launch for the month. It's only been made three days ago. There are a total of three dresses for this series and they differ in patterns,
but are more or less of the sstyle."
Layla glanced through the three dresses and Ivy whispered into Layla's ear, "you,and Mom can get one dress each."
"Hahaha! Do you like the style?" Layla asked. "That's the important part.”
"| think it looks good." Ivy ran her fingers through the fabric. "It feels good on the skin, too."
It was a pink dress with pearls sewed into the fabric. Ivy's finger brushed past the price tag and she picked it up to look at it.
