Their End, My Beginning novel Chapter 12

“Katherineee, ”

“Wassup chief?” I asked, standing from my chair.

“There is a good news and a bad one which do you want to hear first.” She asked me while taking a seat opposite from me.

“The bad one.” I love hearing the bad news nowadays well seeing that everyday passed by I expect nothing but a bad one.

“Okay, excellent choice, good it is.” She says making me roll my eyes I don’t know why she asks question if she answers it differently.

“Your design has been accepted by the Carson group.” She says excitedly.

“Whattt??? You are kidding?” she shakes her head at my question. “Oh, my god, that’s splendid.” Well, this group recently has held a competition for architectures to design their new building and winning their deal means a lot since they are like one among the top 10 companies. The 1st is BJ group short for Black Jack. And the 2nd is Waynst ltd.

“What is the bad news?” I asked her.

“Your design was rejected by BJ group. Pity we cannot use it for other project, it was a good one.” She said. One rule in our company aside from plagiarism is not to reuse the design that was rejected by one company, as it has a high chance of being copied by any other group.

The bit of news gave me an enormous shock, as it was one of my best. I spent over 2 months for that design I usually take 1 month to complete a design.

“That’s impossible.” I said as I bolted up from my chair to which she shook her head and said. “Well, suck it up.” She said as she reached the doorknob she turned around.
