Episode 1 - Loyal Tester

"Wh-what!!???" Cherry Yelled as she opened her eyes big staring straight at her friend, Lolly.

"I'm serious! I need your help, pleaseee. I really don't know what to do. I've been overthinking a lot these past few days. My boyfriend is getting cold on me and he doesn't even invite me out for dinner anymore! Not to mention he's been ignoring my calls lately!" Lolly begged

"I mean, I can help you in the ways I know I could but be a loyal tester!? H-how am I supposed to do that? Cheat on your boyfriend to find out if he's really loyal to you? I mean, are you serious!?"

"I am! Andrew doesn't know you. You've never seen each other since he's always out in the country and you've been in the province after you left school." Lolly started to move closer to Cherry and added;

"Please.. Cherry, aren't you needing a big amount of money for your Grandma's surgery? I will help you pay the hospital bills and all. In return, please just do the plan.." Lolly begged as her eyes twinkled in tears. 

After hearing what Lolly said, Cherry couldn't take her mind out of Lolly's offer. Her grandmother has a brain tumor and needed to undergo surgery as soonest as possible. However, Cherry doesn't have enough money to bring her grandma to the hospital, nor even have the money for transportation fee from province to the City.

Cherry grew up in the province under her Grandma's care. Her mother went abroad when Cherry was only three, but her mother didn't come back. Rumors are, her mother married a foreign man and never came back. Cherry never met her father, nobody knows who was Cherry's father since her mother's old job before is an entertainer at the bar.

Cherry doesn't have any aunts nor uncles because her mother was the only child. Not having any relatives to ask for help when in need, her grandmother carries all the burden and hardships all by herself while raising Cherry. So as soon as Cherry turned 19, she decided to stop going to school and went to the City to find a decent job to help her grandmother.

"Cherry?" Lolly snapped her finger and looked at Cherry who was staring blankly in the ceiling.

"Oh um!" Cherry cleared her throats and answered Lolly.

"Okay. Deal."

"What? Really!?"

"Y-yeah, but you have to guide me!"

"Omg! Yes, of course! Thank you! You're really a true friend!" Lolly cheered up and she tightly hugged Cherry while Cherry's face on the other hand looked worried. However she managed to draw a smile on her face for her friend, Lolly.

[After few days]

"Okay! Just remember what we have practiced okay?" Lolly said as she was setting up the mini camera near at Cherry's collar.

Cherry was dressed properly wearing a plaid collared shirt and blue wide jeans. Since Lolly and Cherry almost has the same body size, Lolly let her borrowed the clothes.

"Okay! I got this!" Cherry exhaled. She went outside Lolly's car and turned her head looking at Lolly who was smiling and did a thumbs up to cheer Cherry.

Cherry started walking straight inside the restaurant and immediately went to the table where Andrew was sitting.

"Oh, Cherry?" Andrew stood as he offered his hands for a handshake.

"Yeah, Cherry. Cherry Montesera." As she reached out Andrew's hands and they both shook hands.

"Your hands are a bit cold, are you okay?" Andrew asked as he pulled out a chair for Cherry.

"Oh haha! I'm good! It's just the ambiance, the aircon of this restaurant feels too cold for me haha."

"Oh, I see. Well if you don't mind, can we get straight to business? Andrew smiled as he asked.

"Yes"

"So um, what business plan do you have in mind that you want to offer? I heard from Lolly that you're good in marketing strategies. You see, our pastry shop seems falling behind from the trends. So your input would be greatly appreciated."

"Well," Cherry softly answered as she tried to fix her hair while glancing to Andrew.

"I have a lot of plans in my head. Lolly is right, I'm very good in marketing strategies. But.." Cherry moved her head closer to Andrew's face and whispered;

"What if we talk about it on my room tonight?"

Andrew was a bit startled of Cherry's moves. After a few seconds, andrew smiled and shook his head then said,

"You're quite aggressive, aren't you? Well, I am not the kind of guy who wants to refuse a lady's offer." Andrew smirked while drinking the wine.

Lolly on her car while listening to the conversation, feels raged that her boyfriend is indeed a cheater! But that isn't enough of a proof until something more will happen in that night. 

"Cherry, I'll leave the rest to you. Help me find out if that bullshit Andrew is a cheater!" Lolly whispered in anger
