Jennie was wide awake, lying motionlessly on the bed. It isn't the same dusty bed she used to sleep years ago and this room isn't the small ugly room she used to stay previously. She has one description for the place she's staying right now. It is PARADISE. The spacious and luxurious house is much more comfortable for sure. However, the presence of Lalisa Manoban turned her life upside down to HELL.

When she woke up a few hours ago, she found a piece of paper on the floor. She knew Lalisa slide it through her door. Who else would do that when they are the only people in the house? It doesn't matter how that woman wanted to pass it to her but what matter is, is the content of the note.

#RULE NO.2: JENNIE RUBY JANE KIM HAS TO ACT AND BEHAVE ACCORDINGLY TO THE AGREEMENT - FIANCEE TO LALISA MANOBAN.

It is not a light matter to Jennie. She knew Lisa meant more than that. She has to change that PRETEND as Lalisa's fiancee to - BE Lalisa's fiancee. That is surely a huge difference of PRETENDING and BEING one. What's that woman expected from her? This is absolutely ridiculous. Nonsense and ridiculous.

"THUMP!" Jennie heard a loud thud from the distance.

"THUMP!" The sound becomes more clearer.

"What was that?" Jennie hissed and focused her hearing to the source of noise.

"THUMP!" The loud disturbing sound comes again.

"What was that?" Jennie abruptly dragged herself out of the bed. What a 'wonderful' morning she has in the house on the second day. First, the ridiculous nonsense note from Lalisa Manoban and now, this annoying disturbing thud.

She reaches the door and pull the knob. Craning her head through the ajar door. She throws her gaze out of the room.

"SHIT!" Now she heard someone cursed non-stop. The source of disturbance came from Lisa's bedroom.

"ARGHH!" She heard Lisa's groan.

"Owh! What was that?" Jennie closed the door behind her and tiptoed slowly to Lisa's room which is just the opposite door.

"KNOCK - KNOCK - KNOCK." She knocks on the door, just in case to inform Lisa her presence but she didn't get any response from that woman to enter the room.

"Lalisa?" Jennie pushed the unlock door and creeps in. Lisa is nowhere to be seen.

"Lisa?" She called the woman again.

"Oh God! Where's my shirt?" Lisa's shriek shocked at Jennie who is still looking at her.

"Lisa? Are you alright?" Jennie walked to Lisa's direction. That woman rummages her wardrobe, clueless. She seems to look for something.

"What are you doing here?" Lisa gazed to Jennie with her frowning expression.

"You know, you just disturbed my morning." Jennie folded her arms. Without waiting for Lisa's response, Jennie took her seat on Lisa's fluffy bed.

"Shut up. I'm late for work." Lisa growled back and walked passed Jennie, heading to the corner of the room with a pair of pants. There's an ironing board. Most probably the woman is going to iron it.

"Oh, I see. Is it because you're too busy to think about the rules for me? I got the second rule today and I guess you're preparing the rest of 98 rules?" Jennie smirked to Lisa just the same way how that woman love to do to her.

"If you don't have anything to do here, please get out of my room." Lisa gestured Jennie to the door, urging the girl to leave her room as soon as possible. Jennie's presence just added another trouble to her.

"What's wrong with you?" Jennie frowned and brought herself to the corner.

"How many times do I have to tell you? I'm late for work." Lisa hissed but she didn't look at Jennie. She's so busy with her pants and what's more funny is Lisa use the iron awkwardly.
