Meeting Dora
Lucy is in the 'Joy's café' waiting for the Dora girl who called her yesterday. It was a little hard for her to get to this café because it is hidden in a suburban kind of place.
The people here are all commoners and low class people. If not that curiosity got the best of her, she would have turned back the minute she got to this place.
She packed her car in a place farther than this café because there's nowhere to pack a car around here and the people in this café are staring at her as if she's some kind of Princess from a well-known Kingdom. Seems like they are surprised to see such a wealthy person amongst them.
A waiter approaches her with a pen and notepad
Waiter: Good evening Ma'am. My name is Joy and I'm the owner of this place.
Can I get your order, Ma'am?
Lucy: (To herself) So this is the owner, I thought she's some worker or waiter or something. I wonder how the workers will look like
(To Joy) Um Good evening too.
As the owner, don't you have workers to serve customers instead?
Joy: (Smiles brightly, showing her beautiful set of white teeth) I just want to serve you myself, because, well, you are L of the KBL.
Lucy: Oh, you know me? I didn't know that the people in this type of place will know me
Joy: Actually, only some here people know you, that is the teenagers and youths like us. And we love your songs. Especially the ones you compose and sing yourself.
Lucy: (Smiles) That's great. Thank you!
Joy: So, What do you want Ma'am?
Lucy: Actually, I'm waiting for someone. She should have been here by now, but I think she will come soon.
Joy: Won't you need anything while waiting for the person?
Lucy: Oh yeah. Give me coffee, add more milk than sugar, please
Joy: Yes, Ma'am (Leaves then returns minutes later with the coffee in a small tray and puts it down for Lucy)
Ma'am, If I may ask, who are you waiting for? I know everyone around this place
Lucy: Ummm, some girl name Dora
Joy: Do you by any chance know her other name?
Lucy: No. It's an arranged meeting
Joy: Oh okay Ma'am.
I hope my asking doesn't make you angry?
Lucy: Not at all
Joy: Thanks. I will take my leave now (Leaves)
Lucy: Her English and everything. She seems educated.
One would have thought people from this place wouldn't know many things.
(The bell of the Café's door rings signifying a person's entry, a girl of about 18 years dressed in skimpy outfits and that girl is the person that Lucy waits for, on sighting Lucy, she walks up to her, ignoring people's stares)
Dora: (sits down) You made it
Lucy: Yeah, and earlier than you
Dora: Something came up at the last minute, that's why
Lucy: To be sure, I'm talking to Dora, the mystery caller, right?
Dora: Yes, it's me
Lucy: So… you were saying my boyfriend planned something against me
Dora: Yes, and luckily, I got to know of it
Lucy: Who's my boyfriend?
Dora: Damon, son of the president.
Lucy: So, you know him. What does he have against me? And why are you helping me out?
Dora: You are straight forward, I like that. I like people like you.
Let me give you details.
Last Friday night, you were on a date with Damon in the Lovers Garden. I was there.
Damon called me to come on a date with him but he later said that it would be two dates, with you and with me
When I got there, I was sitting at the far end alone and then you gave an opportunity for us to talk, you went out to use the restroom.
He came to me and told me to come to his regular hotel and get down with him that same night.
Wasn't the first time though.
I told him I was tired of hiding and that he should make me public already and break up with you if he doesn't love you but he told me that he was just using you to get more fame and when he's done, he would dump you and that he loves me and no one else.
It was the next day, I went on an errand to a popular bar and I saw him there with another girl promising her the same thing. I left there without being noticed and somehow he knew I saw him.
I threatened to tell the whole world, I was trying to blackmail him to loving me alone but he turned it back on me and threatened to release photos and videos of us having sex and tagging me a porn actor and slut. I am scared. He has done it before to other girls and I'm not an exception.
I need help. If my sister gets to know about this, I will be in big trouble.
Lucy: So, you want me to help you?
Dora: I want us to come up with a plan to bring him down and end all his evil doings before someone else gets used too
Lucy: And why would I help you?
Dora: Because he planned to use you for fame. He said he would woo you into sleeping with him and then tell the world of how he conquered you.
Lucy: Why would I believe you?
Dora: I have evidence. (Opens her bag and brings a recorder, then she plays it)
Recorder: (A guy's voice) Really? Dude you got more swag than I thought.
(Damon's voice) More than you can ever think. You know the L of KBL? Well she's now my girlfriend
(A guy's voice)Wow. You're gonna be serious with this one, right?
(Damon's voice) Hahaha. You make me laugh, guy. I'm a forever Playboy, I don't get serious with relationships.
Imagine this, L of KBL has been dumped by the president's son. Just imagine dude, the amount of popularity it will bring. All girls will want me more.
(A guy's voice) Not bad Damon, not bad.
But let it go slow, you don't want her fans attacking you or something
(Damon's voice) No one can dare touch the president's son. I will just get my usual, you know, getting in between the legs and dumping the used trash away
(A guy's voice) How about that girl? Dora?
(Damon's voice) That's my original sex toy, after her is Joy. When I'm done with them, they too will be in the trash can.
(A guy's voice) That's my cruel bro
(Recording ends)
Lucy: Whoa. I can't believe this
Dora: See?
Lucy: I'm gonna get back at that stupid Prevert ! How dare he?!!
Dora: So what's your plan? How do we bring him down?
