1 || see you in court

"Breaking News! Actor Superstar Keanu Reeves is schedule to appear in a court hearing VS Anthony Hawks who filed a case against Keanu's Motorbike company which is the Arch Motorcycle...... "

Keanu's POV

I don't understand why Anthony filed a case against us, that was clearly our design....my design.

"Anthony is known for that....filing vague cases, we will surely win this one, we just need a good lawyer"

"I hope so" I replied, Gary is also a co founder of the company it took us years to experiment and study the company....the engine, materials and design.

Gary and I went went to a friend's law firm to ask for a consultation. Gary's old high school friend Martin has his own law firm and is known as a brilliant law firm in California.

"Martin! Long time no see it's good to see you" Gary gave Martin a warm hug "it's good too see you Gary ! It's been years! How are you?" Martin replied.
"Oh you know been good, oh Martin! I'd like to introduce you to my good friend Keanu!" Martin chuckled "No need, Mr. Keanu it's a pleasure to meet you !" I squirmed "ah! Please no! Attorney Martin,  hello .... nice to meet you!" Martin chuckled "let's go inside and discuss your concerns gentlemen " Martin added.

We explained the problem to Martin and his respond is great, Martin explained that Anthony filed an Estafa case which involves fraud or deceit that causes loss to another. Which is vague for the judge to release a decision or to side on Anthony's since he's doesn't have enough evidence. Which is a good sign for us.

"Thank you for your time Martin" I reached for a handshake which he returned "no problem Si- oh right Keanu! I will contact you tomorrow gentlemen
So you can meet the brilliant lawyer that I assigned for you" Martin said. We said our thankyous and goodbyes and left the firm. Gary and I separated ways already he drove his car and I had my motorbike with me so I decided to go on a short grocery shopping. I went inside the store got my cart and headed to the fruit section while suddenly I lost control of my cart and accidentally hit a woman, well her ankle .

"Hey! Oh I'm so sorry Ma'am I-" she faced me with a disappointed look "You clearly knew I was in front of you" she said sarcastically "I didn't mean to hit you I'm sorry" I said while I got down and helped her pick up her items "I'm very late can you please just leave me alone?" She said and rolled her eyes. "I already said sorry ms, why are y-" before I could finish my sentence she snapped "look I'm in a hurry can you just please give me my basket ?" She said and I didn't notice I was just standing there with her basket "right, yeah again I'm sorry I-" before I could finish she immediately left my sight....her high heels tapping so loud " she's cute but very moody"I said but hey she's really pretty but maybe she's just in a bad mood? I chuckled.

Lana's Pov

I've been a lawyer now for years now and I'm pretty happy about it since it's been my dream to be come a lawyer since I was a child. here I am now working in a law firm and I'm loving it. Martin helped me a lot he basically trained me and supported me through the years. recently he assigned a case to me about an Estafa case which I will be meeting with my clients tomorrow. Well,earlier at the grocery I was in a hurry decided to buy a quick fresh fruits and this guy behind me his cart hit me causing me to drop my basket. I admit I was kinda harsh and it was really an accident but I was just really in a hurry but not gonna lie he's kinda cute probably around his 40s?

"Good morning Lana Jakoby" ugh I hate it when he calls me that "Uncle Martin! Nooo haha, good morning" Martin is my uncle he kinda adopted me since I was really distant from my parents and I'm very lucky to have him. "Martin is this the final case of the month?" I asked. "Yes you'll be handling 10 major and 10 minor" Martin replied "let's go now Lana we'll meet the clients, I think they're here" Martin and I went to the conference room to meet our clients.
I went to the bathroom real quick so Martin went inside the conference room to meet the clients
M: good morning Keanu and Garry how are you today did you read the complaint
K: good morning, yes Martin we did.
G: also we gathered some evidences from the previous complaints against Anthony
M: that's good, I assigned your case to my brilliant niece Lana she just went to the bathroom.
L: Sorry Martin I-...... you? , Lana said completely shocked when she saw Keanu.
K: oh grocery girl.... how you doing?
M: you know each other?
L: well he was the one who hit me with the grocery cart that's why I got this bruise, Lana shows a mini ka bruise on her ankle from the cart bumped.
L: but it's all good it was an accident he's just clumsy
K: again I'm sorry, Keanu said making Martin and Gary a chuckle.
M: ah enough, alright Lana they're your clients and I'll leave you with them discuss the procedures and everything I need to go I have a meeting to attend.
L: alright Martin no problem, Martin have Lana a quick kiss on the cheek and he left.
G: Ms Lana Jakoby Lazaro, thank you for handling us it's a pleasure to meet you , your uncle really said you're one of the best lawyers.
K: hmmm ms. Jakoby, Keanu chuckled
L: no problem Gary and please just call me Lana, attorney Lana.

I already explained Keanu and Garry the procedure for the filing since they have evidences against Anthony. Gary had to excuse himself since he needed to visit his son which left me with Keanu.....

"Jakoby is a nice name" Keanu said "well I don't like it so stop calling me that" I said and rolled my eyes.
"Ah why are you so mean, you're so-" before Keanu could finish I said "so what?? ?!" With an annoyed tone. He went silent for a bit and said "so adorable" he smiled. I couldn't help it but I was blushing but I acted annoyed "ugh whatever, I need to go -" Keanu stood up "no let me drive you home" Keanu said looking for his keys "no it's okay.....I" Keanu declined "no your uncle said it's better I should drive you home since it's -" I sighed "ugh fine fine" he chuckled. Keanu carried my stuff and he opened the door for me he was driving his Audi today "Keanu can you just drop me off the mall?" He looked at me "why?" I rolled my eyes "what do you mean why? I'm hungry I wanna eat" Keanu smiled "Ah Jakoby I know a place you'll love it hey I'm hungry too" I sighed "fine and please stop calling me Jakoby" he started the engine and chuckled "we'll see"
Keanu and I went to an old style restaurant they offered home style dishes which made me miss home. We ordered chicken and vegetables dishes
And also pancakes!
"Lana, so hows life ? you know being a lawyer ?" Keanu said "well Keanu, I like it....it's been a dream so to just work here with my supportive uncle it's great, what bout you? Superstar!" Keanu squirmed "I didn't know you were that big to be honest Martin just told me like yesterday" I added. "It's good, I'm just thankful for the fans" he smiled. Keanu and I talked for 2 hours we talked about Life, likes his motorcycle company my law life and I can say he's a good listener his very clear and smart he's such an interesting person. Keanu drove me home and had a little talk when we were inside the car.
"Lana, I really had a lot of fun, thanks for letting me treat you out". Keanu said and yeah I rolled my eyes again but playfully "its nothing you don't think this is a date right?" I said and chuckled and he felt embarrassed and he let out a fake chuckle "uh of course yeah" Keanu said. Well, I felt bad i didn't know how would he react "Keanu, I was j- uhm okay I really had fun it's been while for me so I'm sorry if you know I'm kinda moody sometimes" I smiled and he smiled back "I understand Lana, I'm glad you had fun." He said. I was about to open the door but I don't know why but I gave Keanu a hug and it was a different feeling for me, he hugged me back "thank you, drive safe" I said.he blushed and smiled "thank you" he replied. I went out and he started his engine before he drive off, I added "see you in court" he chuckled "See you in court".
