Juliet POV:
I am back home, back to my normal life, I stretch my arms in the air, the air even seems sweeter this morning and the freedom nothing can compare to it..
Ah my normal life I have missed you so much
" JoJo did you cause a trouble on your trip..." Bobo ask as I walk to the living room with my cup of coffee.
" Nah.. what make you ask that.."
I question brewing my coffee, I haven't told him what happen on the trip didn't want to bother him.
" Is this you... I mean the Greek god and you .. " Bobo responded showing me the entrainment page of this morning newspaper, and the minute my eyes landed on the paper I blew off the coffee from my mouth.
" What??? You've got to be kidding me..." I yell out.
You won't believe the paper contain a picture of me and Roro and the funny headline
'millionaire son in love with a lecture..'
" Dam you got a big fish..."
" Bobo I think I am doom... I should have know this was Crazy rich Asian story the minute I attended their party... "
In the moment my phone ring flashing the name of the man i should have killed the very day we met.
" Hello..."
" Hello to you .. I am sure you have some explanation to do..." I responded replying his casual hello.
" Listen first this was Clara doing.. second the game is not over you are still my girlfriend... Third I am on my way to pick you, mom wants to meet" he answers causally and I am about to bounce on him for the never ending mess we are in.
God I never have wanted to kill someone this much. Haven't I had enough of this.. the universe seriously love me to death..
"I'll kill the bitch and you will be next.." I hang the phone in anger.
I want a normal life!! This is why I never want to mess with the so called millionaire class.
" JoJo.. did anything happen on the trip .. " Bobo question curiously.
" This " I pointed to the blue mark on my head. He still didn't know about it and this drama queen will have endless questions again.
" Did he hit you ..." He look worried looking closer to my wound.
" No he didn't but the dam fiance of his did it happy. "
" Are you okay... " I am sorry but I am losing my passions.
" For the love of God can you shut up for a moment.." I push him away.
He wasn't at fault but the frustration in me is turning me into a bitch again after all I have anger management issue.
" I was concern about you.." he replied making me feel the guilt of all humanity that ever existed on earth.
" I am sorry and you never learn to keep quiet when I am angry... " I replied trying to calm myself down.
There was a knock on the door I signal Bobo to open the door as he quickly rushes to the door.
" Care to explain why I am still stuck with you ..." I question throwing the newspaper at him the minute he step into the door.
" I knew this was coming that why I wanted a better plan to get away from her .." he answer picking up the paper.
" Better plan are you blaming me now.. and you never shared your plan with.."
" Neither did you..." He hit back
" So this is all my fault.. great now what? another fake date.."
" melt the matter down... First let's face mom..."
I gave him a death stare I know what it's like meeting someone parents, you know the usual curse and swears.
" Come on if you get on her side she isn't that bad.." he added that was supposed to ease my situation but sadly it didn't because I am a dirt and no mother in her right mind would let her son get close to someone like me let alone a millionaire son.
" I have an idea let's tell her the truth and end the game.. " I suggested because thatt the only option I see.
" And get killed... She haven't got over the shock of our date and you want to add another one... At this rate she will have cardiac arrest ..."
" What do you want me to do... Get married with you.." I inch closer to him.
" Actually that's what I am trying to say .. " he pull out a paper and gave it to me.
And believe me it's a marriage agreement.
" Have you finally lost it... Do I look like a f****** joke to you. .. fake marriage for a year do I look that easy to you" I threw paper to the ground.
Fake marriage over my dead body.
" This is only way out .. we get married and met my family they will have no choice but to accept.. and I'll handle our issue within the year.."
" You seriously have a wish of seeing your mom having cardiac arrest.. how are planning to hide my true identity... Or have you hired a whole fake family... Is it too hard to tell her the truth.."
" Neither Clara nor mom will back down.. I need this marriage to prove that my family can survive without Clara's family money... I don't want to live like my mom chasing money I'll earn it .." he replied in a low tone
Should I get him killed or kill myself ...
" Is there anything you want to say.."
" Just sign the paper.. I already told mom that we have secretly married.."
I am lost for word I thought I finally got back my normal life and here I am on the verge of entering a fake marriage.
" Bobo can you tell this man to get out of the house and never show up again.. I might end up killing someone if he keep talking nonsense.." I turn to the silent spectator who had being listening our conversation like a lost puppy.
" I promise everything going be fine... Can't you trust me for once..." he plead
" Marriage may seems like a joke to you but to me it's a big deal... Either fake or real I'll have a stamp of being your wife for life and I m not willing to take that risk.. now you may leave.." I answer heading to my room.
" JoJo mom will get me married to Clara if I don't show up with you ..."
I slam the door of my room, I haven't lost my sanity yet it's his problem and not mine. Why bother and make my life a hell, I didn't heard anything this was my nightmare and nothing else.
Marriage and me does he even know who am I?
