Girlfriend For Rent

Trouble

Jennie's POV

You know what? I don't get it. I just can't understand!

Do you see me? I am good looking, good at fashion sense, you can just get the thrill of elegance just looking at me. BUT WHY? Why couldn't I just have a boyfriend? and now, the real problem comes.

Flashback

"Jennie honey, you haven't picked up our call or even called us. We miss you!"

"Yes, mom. I miss you too, you know.... School works and housework got me all occupied these days."

"That's why I told you to let your boyfriend help you. Why couldn't you just listen to your eomma?" yes, to avoid troubles of matchmaking, I told my mom that I already had a boyfriend and he lived far away.

"Mom, you know he lives far away. It was already hard for us to do the long distance thing."

"At least let us meet him for once. You dad have been bugging me about it and I also want to see my future son in law."

"Mom, he's busy, he has to study and also has to work part-time."

A voice over the phone shouted out "Hand me the phone honey." oh no, it's daddy. Did I tell you that I was so afraid of dad the most in this life? Yes, I was afraid of him, out of respect of course. He had been working so hard for the family so I love and afraid of him, and I always tried my best not to disappoint him. and that's also the root cause of the whole fake boyfriend thing.

"Hi my little princess."

"Dad, stop calling me that, I'm already old enough."

"You will never be old enough to be my little princess. Anyway, I'm demanding to meet this boyfriend of yours, and you can't escape it this time. Unless all of this is a lie, bring him to meet me for dinner one week from now. I will arrange all the schedule."

"But dad..."

"There are no buts, we have been waiting for so long to meet him. So, if I find out that all of these are lies, I will disown you."

"Dad, you're making it so hard."

"It's either letting me meet him or never be our daughter Jennie."

***End of Flashback

I was still thinking of the whole conversation again and again, and it had been 4 days already, which meant I only have 3 days left to the dinner. I should have never lied to them. I regretted it so badly now.

"What's up Jendeukie? looking so sad in the early morning."

"Jisoo unnie, you have got to help me with this." Jisoo Unnie was just like my elder sister, but she wasn't. We were childhood friend and we always hung out with each other. We looked like sisters for some people and lovers to some. Yes, Jensoo in your area, y'all.

"What is it? Do I get chicken wings for helping you?" Jisoo said while wiggling her eyebrows.

"Yes, unnie, yes! as long as you can help me out this time, I will take you to chicken heaven buffet. So please, please help me!!!" Jisoo nodded. I knew it she would help, she just couldn't resist the chicken treat.

I started telling Jisoo unnie the whole story.

"So your dad will disown you for not bringing a boyfriend to meet him?" Jisoo unnie asked.

"Yes, I know right? He's so mean." Right? who would disown their daughter just because of a boyfriend drama?

"Serve you right. Told you so! You shouldn't have lied to them." I knew she's gonna say that!

"C'mon unnie. You know my situation!" Yes, Jisoo unnie knew every bit of my family drama and how I was so afraid of my dad.

"Alright, alright. But don't lie to your parents next time." She warned me like I was her daughter.

"Okay." I pout.

"Yah! Stop pouting! I'm not your fake boyfriend."

"Yah! Unnie! I will find a boyfriend soon!"

"Whatever you say Jendeukie."
