Elyse Stone: What's for dinner? You better have something good.
Sorry isn't gonna cut it! I need answers, not apologies!
okay okay, come and sit down. he pulls out his phone
storms over and sits down Alright, spill it! What's got you so damn sorry that you had to drag me into this mess?
do you remember when I told you that my parents don’t believe in dating?
rolls her eyes Yeah, I remember. And? What's that got to do with anything? Just spill it already!
he turns his phone toward her. Okay look, my parents are sending me to a camp for the summer and there is a challenge. If I go through with it I get 5 million dollars.
leans forward, eyebrows raised 5 million dollars? And what the hell is this challenge you're talking about?
So it’s a reality show thing where I have to make people fall in love with me, and there’s cameras following our every move.
leans back, crossing her arms Are you shitting me? Your parents want you to pull some kind of love experiment for money? That's just plain messed up.
stands up, pacing around the room This is bullshit! You're letting your parents manipulate you like this? And now you expect me to play along? No way, I'm not gonna be a part of this sick game.
hey! you agreed to pretend to be my girlfriend, and we only have two days until I leave.
stops pacing, glares at Personik I agreed to pretend, but this shitshow you've gotten yourself into is not my problem!
Elyse storms out of the apartment, leaving Personik alone and conflicted about the situation
wait where are you going?
throws her bag over her shoulder, without looking back I'm getting the hell out of here! I can't stand being around you and your fucked up family anymore.
I run after her wait! please hear me out.
spins around, glaring at Personik Hear you out? You think I haven't heard enough already? Well, let me tell you something, buddy.
please, just give me a chance to explain.
narrows her eyes, takes a step closer to Personik Fine. But make it quick, I don't have all day to waste on your bullshit.
Look, my parents may be crazy but they mean well. They want me to learn how to be serious with someone else instead of moving onto the next fling.
raises an eyebrow, smirking Seriously? They think throwing you into a fake relationship will teach you some lesson?
yes, I know it sounds dumb but whatever.
rolls her eyes, scoffs Yeah, well, good luck with that bullshit theory of yours.
