The Meeting
“WHAT”
They all look at her, concerned, but understanding that she didn’t expect to be in this situation.
“….yes well, we need to cause some publicity with something around the movie, something positive. So we think that you two dating-”
“Fake-dating” Wednesday corrects.
“Fake-dating. Would bring the right publicity to the movie. Of course you would both be getting paid for this. Do you guys disagree with this decision?” Weems said, looking hopeful that neither actor would disagree.
“Nope we are ok with this decision” Bianca said after looking at Wednesday, who nodded back to her.
Divina seemed to agree with what was happening, knowing that this would be good for the movie and for Enid.
Enid on the other hand…. Looked confused and unsure about this. Divina saw that.
“We need a moment to discuss this outside”Divina said, hoping to be able to get Enid to agree.
Weems nodded to the ladies, who got up and walked out.

Once the two stepped outside, they start talking about whether or not if Enid should agree to this.
“Enid, you need to take this opportunity, you’re going to being so much attention to the movie, it will boost your career” Divina said excited.
“ yeah I don’t know how I fell about this, I mean I have to date a stranger” Enid looked concerned.
“Enid, it’s just going to be a few months, just post a couple of pictures on insta of you two together, and boom, done”
“ eh, alright, I’ll do it”
The two walk back into the conference room.

“Alright so we have agreed to this, but have a couple of questions about what these two will need to do” Divina said to the director and the media manager.
“Oh of course”, Yoko said, turning to look at Wednesday and Enid. “You two will just need to go on a couple of dates, take some photos together, post them on your social media accounts, and we will also leave some to the press, to start some rumors”.
“A couple of months after the movie is released, your teams will issue statements saying that it won’t be working out between you two, but it was a mutual break so know one is blamed for the break up. Oh right another thing, you need to act like a couple during filming, we can’t have anyone knowing”
They all looked satisfied with those answers that Yoko gave them.
“I recommend that you guys get to know each other, so you two can act better out on your dates” Yoko said with a smile on her face.
And with that the meeting was over after a few contracts were signed, including an NDA stating that they couldn’t tell anyone that it was fake, since that would do the opposite of what they wanted. Positive exposure.

Divina and Bianca talked to each other after they meeting was over.
“Yoko said they should get to know each other right?” Divina said, confirming what she thought.
“Yes she did… they should probably meet up somewhere not in public. How about……At here on Wednesday at 9 in the morning. We get them here, make sure they don’t kill each other, while getting to know each other. “ Bianca said, knowing that if Wednesday had enough she would try to murder Enid.
“Yes of course that sounds like a plan” Divina agreed eagerly.
So it was planned. Wednesday and Enid would get to know each other in two days. And try not to get arrested for murder.
