The Red String

Episode 3 Copy cat

"Yesterday, right after that happened, as Sean and I so close, face-to-face, I felt this strange yet beautiful feeling inside me. Said Ali

(Seafood Restaurant)

As Ali walked by, her eyes caught sight of the restaurant. Right away, she knew this was exactly what she wanted.

Her heart felt so excited and her stomach was already asking for it — she had been craving crabs and fresh seafood for so long. Just looking at the menu and the food display made her feel happy.

“Wow, this looks absolutely delicious! I can’t wait to eat,”

Ali said with a bright smile.While Ali was enjoying her meal of crabs and fresh seafood, enjoying every bite.

Ali went to the mall to buy a motorbike, a guitar, and some books. After that, she played games at the mall arcade.

Sean was at his office when his assistant told him he needed to find a new apartment to stay in while he looked for a permanent place.

After that, Sean went to the new apartment.

Then he went to take a shower, his thoughts drifting to Ali.

“When will I meet you again?” Sean said aloud.

He smiled to himself, then felt embarrassed by his own words.

Sean ordered food, and when it arrived, he went to open the door.

Just as he did, he saw Ali enter the room right next to his.

Sean froze in shock—Ali was his neighbor right across the hall.

He panicking

"how can I approach Ali"

Ali woke up at 7:00 a.m. to exercise at home when she received a text from her team—someone was accusing her of copying another dress design. Her heart sank at the news.

She immediately called her team to clear her name.

“I would never copy anyone. Those designs are my own ideas,” Ali said firmly.

After hanging up the phone, Ali sat in silence… then slowly began to cry.

Everyone began accusing Ali of being a copycat.

In response, she posted a statement on her account:

“I did not copy anyone’s work. I would never do such a thing. My conscience is clear—someone is framing me.”

Her words spread quickly, but the accusations continued.

“Why… why is it so hard?” she whispered to herself, tears starting to blur her vision.

“Everything I built, everything I worked hard for… they are destroying it one by one, and I can’t even do anything to stop them. Am I really that powerless?”

“I don’t know what to do anymore…”

For the first time in her life, Ali admitted to herself that she was truly lost. She felt like she was drowning in a deep dark ocean, struggling and gasping for air, but every movement only pulled her deeper down.

Ali,tried desperately to find evidence of who did this, but she failed again and again. She didn’t know what to do anymore, and in complete despair, Ali collapsed to the floor.
