In Between The Lines....

Chapter four

Juliet POV:

" Are you serious.. that family of his will have me buried alive.. Jesus it was hard to even survive a day forget about getting booked for a month with him" I complained to my manager Raina who just informed me that I got book for a month by Roro.

Romeo have book me to date him
For a month and I can't even breathe with the thought of it.
I hate the skin of rich people and you don't want to get under those skin because there is always a risk of burning yourself down..

"Jojo we don't even have much client for you since you have too many rules for them.. if you want to pay the bills in time.. you better cooperate with this one.." she advice playing the card of my bills. She knew that I have bills pending that needs to be paid on time to get my ass out of the troubles brewing in the bills.

"Raina.. if I were a real lecture like Rachael Chu in Crazy rich Asian movie that would have at least save the day.. but I work with a dating agency and that to rich people like them equals a slut... you know how sluts get treated.. and girl let's not forget I grew up in an orphanage.. everything about me is  rich people worst nightmare.. you got the point.."

" Gosh JoJo.. all you need to do is pretend and we take care of the rest. He wants you to win over his Nana and get the engagement cancel.."

" Engagement... "

" Did he left the part that he is engaged..."

No no no... Do I want to die...
The last time I fake date a millionaire to break off his engagement I almost lost all my hairs...

" I am not doing this.."

" JoJo bills..."

" No no no no... I don't have a good feeling about this..." I protested for in my head this is going to be a dead march.

" So your landlord doesn't pressure you over the rents.. "

" I need sometime to think about it okay... This sucks..."

The more I think about this the more complicated it gets.. His family wouldn't just seat back and go along with the drama remember Rachael was screwed by her family record. And I have a family  profile to die for.

Romeo POV:

" So you are saying your are hiring a girlfriend for a month to get away from Clara.. did I get it right.."
Harry questions pacing around the room.

" Yup..."

" And where is this girl coming from..."

" Dating agency...."

"Aunty Lenor will love this.. she will basically have you and you fake girl buried six feet under the ground that too  when you are very much still alive.."

" Chill after the engagement is off we part our ways so mum doesn't have to worry about her...."

" You son of a gun.. but will the girl agree.."

" Pretty sure that this the only way she get to earn more money..." I answer hopefully.

" Is there any chance that you might fall for her.."

" My first crush...."

" What!! hold on... Is this about to get real... I hope you are not marrying her.."

" As a kid I thought I would but I have grow up to realise the difference between me and her.. you know the world dies before anything can happen between us.." I answered politely.

" I say look for another girl if you don't want the world to die.."

" I don't think I will comfortable with anyone beside her.."

" Dude I can foresee your funeral service..  you are playing with fire.."

I am scare too but I don't want to spent the rest of my life with Clara and if I do I'll forever be a puppet to her and her family and I am not willing to have that future for myself...

Juliet POV:

" So you knew him from Sunday class.. and you were the usaul friends now he wants to hire you for a month.. does that ring something to you.." bobo narrated in a suspicious tone.

" Are you really just friends.." he added looking like Sherlock Holmes.

" Yup..."

" Have you ever noticed that he act strange towards you..."
His remarks suddenly took me to the train of thought and I don't remember him being unusual..

" No..."

" Think carefully JoJo..."

" Why would he act unusual ... "

" Have it ever appeal to you that he might have a crush on you.."

" Keep your imagination to your self.." I threw a cushion at him, he almost had me believe that someone may have a crush on me.. yes me..

" Then why would he come looking for you after six years.. "

" Because he need my help.. you don't know how much he owned... He can get anyone he wants why would he stoop down to my level for a real love... Geezz get a brain Brain.."

" Cendrella was poor too..."

" She had a step mom.. and i don't even have my parents... Orphan remember..."

" All I am saying is anything can happen "

" not me sweetheart.. I am a dirt he is gold.."

"  earlier today the landlord came by.. lucky you that I got a few bucks to pay off your rent...girl you are living low... It's high time you think about dating your clients for real..."

" I know bills are hard... Living is even harder... life sucks..."

" Like how rude the clients are..."
We both roll our eyes together at the same time sharing a little laugh in the midst of our crisis.

Brain and I were raise up in an orphanage like normal kids except for the fact that we didn't have the luxury of getting educated in educational institution instead we were homeschool so by the time we were too big for the orphanage we didn't have the qualifications for what you can an office or decent job so we end up in a dating agency a job that takes every respect of your dignity and reduce you to dirt. Often we find ourselves hitting our low point but we never give up because we've got nerve of steel and soul of platinum..
