But for Kaylee, the admiration for Lily felt like a knife to the heart. Fuming, she pushed through the crowd and confronted Lily, glaring at her. "Why did you do it?!" Kaylee was known for her gentle nature, rarely ever raising her voice. Seeing her this livid was a shock to everyone.
Lily looked at her with impatience, feigning ignorance. "What are you talking about?" Kaylee's fists clenched at her sides, her eyes red with anger. She spoke slowly, emphasizing each word, "Why did you plagiarize my design?" The backstage fell silent for a moment, then erupted into chaos.

The judges were intrigued as Kaylee took the stage. Her talent had impressed them in the earlier rounds.
"Hello everyone, I'm number 20, Kaylee, from the Fashion Design Department at the University of Maple Grove," she began, her soft voice soothing despite the tension.
As she unveiled the red cloth covering her model, the judges leaned in with anticipation. But what they saw left them stunned.
