Juliet POV:
I make a few turn as I lay on my bed with few thoughts on my mind.. Romeo or Roro made a proposition that I met his grandma pretending to be his girlfriend. And apparently that will help him escape his grandma's plans for his marriage.
The proposition isn't bad I get to act decent and get paid but oddly I don't like the idea of acting cozy with someone I know especially when it's the guy I once bullied.
"JoJo.... JoJo..." There was sharp knock on the door.
" I told you not to come here if it's too late... My landlord will kick me out one day if you continue with this habit.." I whisper as the door open for my long mate or bff for life Brain..
The smell of tequila and vodka are strongly ticking my nose making me wonder if he had blew his emergency saving and that take me to the fact that he is still in a mourning mode of his break with his girlfriend.
" Sorry buddy.. she was flying in my mind again.. " he stumbled upon the sofa perfectly landing on it.
" She seems to be flying in your mind too often huh.. remember the world is beyond a girl.. you can't keep up with this least you want me to murder your ex.." I help him get his feets to the sofa as he lay completely wasted.
" I hate it when I give my all and in the end she doesn't want me.. three years JoJo.."
" I know and I saw how much you love her but guess what something are not make for eachother.."
"She make me buy expensive stuff for her.."
" And I told you she is using you.."
" But I love her JoJo.."
" Rene told me that you skip your date today and your client have overcharge him for the damage.. "
" What I thought I was off .. off ..JoJo...JoJo.. "
" Dude I am listening.... Will you keep it low..."
" I love you because you are my Nemo.. my Ariel..."
" Snow White .... Elsa.... Rapunzel..."
I complete his sentence as he sheepishly smile at me.Don't take him for my boyfriend because he is more than that since he is my first friend.. my all weather friends, the man in my highs and lows.. overall he knows me better than anyone.
"How was yo..ur... Date..." His eyes were shut but his minds and mouth are still at work..
" Goodnight bobo... Dream big.. love ya.." I pull the blanket up to covered him and watch him slipping away to his dream world. I am not overcoating my kindness here but this is how we take care of eachother. And when I am sober up he does the same for me.

Romeo POV:
"Nana she is just great you are going to love her..." I desperately plead with Nana before she had me tie down with the over clingy Clara.
" What's wrong with Clara.. she have everything you need.. " Nana tried to explain her choice as I roll my eyes over the answers
What's wrong with Clara
Basically everything!!
She is an entitle little bitch.." Okay so when do I met your Juliet.."
" Tomorrow... Oh... I completely forgot that she is not available tomorrow.. what about at our party of the day after tomorrow.."
" Fine...And her status.."
" Nana... Her parents teaching profession... including her"
" Teaching dam your mum is going to make me a soup once she figure it out.. "
" Nana please only you can save my ass.."
" Save my ass.. this is why i always advice you to catch the bigger fish.. is she pretty .."
" she is Wonder woman.. better than the plastic Clara..."
" wonder woman... If this one doesn't work out Clara is in.. you got me..."
" Trust me she is worth dying for .."
I would have hesistated if it was any girl but with JoJo I know that she can safe the day plus if I ever have a girlfriend it would have being someone like her, who is not complicated to understand. The only problem here is the lie I make up about her family and the challenge depends on how good we hide the secret.

Juliet POV:
" So basically you told her I work as a teacher which I am far from ... You mentioned the parents I never have... And you want me to win her over.. " I reread the information he has for me and my guts are begging me to get my ass out of this fail proof plan.
" Yes..."
" Is this why you haunt me down after six years... I mean anybody could do it expect for.."
" Dante told me that you are the only one who could nail it.. besides we never met again.. so with one stone we killed two bird.."
" Sorry but I have never taught in a school nor have I acted as one.. and the people who usually take the role of my parents retired... Which comes to the point that this plan is not working out... "
" I am a master in that I will teach you how to Impress my grandma.. first you must act like a classic lady.."
" Classic lady..."
" Bold and brave .."
" You mean pandas philosophy.."
" Pandas and philosophy..."
" Nerve of steel soul of platinum.."
" Bingo... rule number two she hates poor attitude.. she needs some good social manners... Act like a queen but not in personal with her.... And mom hates girl with loud mouth and cheap dress..."
Are we in the premier of
Crazy rich Asian..." My dad won't care as long as mum agrees... And for now we are shopping to upgrade your social status... You ready..."
No I am not ready at all
I have being to few of rich people parties and I know how gross and thick it gets to attend one of those parties and rub shoulders with the entitle brats more fake than my fake relations.
I never like the rich society partly because I am born poor the other side is because I hate socialising in a fake community.
