00:00Hi friends. Welcome. Let's continue The Fake Girlfriend Contract, Episode 1.
00:07So today we're starting a brand new GL romance story. Let's begin.
00:15It was a warm Friday afternoon in Bangkok. The city was as busy as always. Cars filled the
00:22streets. People hurried past each other without looking back. Inside a beautiful cafe near the
00:28river, a young woman sat quietly by the window. Her name was Prewa. She wore a white shirt,
00:35blue jeans, and a simple silver watch. A cup of iced coffee rested in front of her,
00:41but she hadn't touched it. Her eyes were fixed on the cafe entrance. She was waiting for someone.
00:49After a few minutes, the cafe door opened. Prewa smiled for a second, but that smile disappeared
00:56almost immediately. The person who walked in was Nisha, Prewa's ex-girlfriend. But Nisha wasn't
01:06alone. She was holding another woman's hand. The two of them looked happy together. Prewa lowered
01:13her eyes. For a moment, she couldn't breathe. Nisha noticed her and walked over with a confident smile.
01:22Nisha. Wow. I didn't think you'd actually come. Prewa forced a small smile. Prewa, you said you
01:31wanted to talk. Nisha pulled out a chair and sat down. The other woman stayed beside her. Nisha.
01:40Right. I just wanted to introduce someone. She looked at the woman beside her. Nisha.
01:46Nisha. This is my girlfriend. There was a short silence. Prewa looked at them, then quietly nodded.
01:55Prewa. Congratulations. Nisha leaned back in her chair. Nisha. You seem calmer than I expected.
02:05Prewa picked up her glass of water. Prewa. What reaction were you hoping for? Nisha smiled.
02:13Nisha. Honestly? Honestly? I thought you'd still be waiting for me. Prewa froze for a second. But she
02:22didn't let it show. She simply looked away. Nisha continued. You always took relationships too
02:29seriously. You'll never move on. Prewa finally looked back at her. This time, there was disappointment in
02:37her eyes. Not anger. Just disappointment. Prewa. Is that really what you think of me?
02:45Nisha shrugged. Nisha. Am I wrong? A few seconds passed. Then, without thinking, Prewa spoke.
02:56Actually, I'm seeing someone too. The smile on Nisha's face disappeared.
03:02Nisha. Nisha. Really? Prewa. Yes. Nisha crossed her arms. Then, a small smile appeared on her face
03:13again. Nisha. Perfect. My birthday party is tomorrow night. Bring your girlfriend. I'd love to meet her.
03:23For a brief moment, Prewa's heart skipped a beat. Because there was one small problem. She didn't have a
03:32girlfriend. But now, she couldn't take her words back. Prewa looked straight into Nisha's eyes,
03:39and answered with confidence. Prewa. Don't worry. She'll be there. Nisha smiled. I'll be waiting.
03:49She stood up, held her girlfriend's hand, and walked out of the cafe. Prewa remained frozen in her seat.
03:57The smile on her face slowly disappeared. She covered her face with both hands, and whispered
04:04to herself. What have I done? Prewa sat alone in the cafe for almost 10 minutes. She kept staring at
04:12her phone. There was only one message on the screen. Nisha. Don't forget to bring your girlfriend
04:19tomorrow night. Prewa sighed. Great. Now I have less than 24 hours to find a girlfriend who doesn't
04:26even exist. She leaned back in her chair. Her best friend, Fa, suddenly sat down across from her.
04:35Fa. You look like someone just told you the world is ending. Prewa let out a dry laugh.
04:41Prewa. Maybe it is. Fa raised an eyebrow. What happened? Prewa told her everything. From meeting
04:52Nisha, to lying about having a new girlfriend. The moment she finished, Fa burst out laughing.
04:59People at the nearby tables even turned to look. Prewa. Can you stop laughing? Fa. I'm trying,
05:07but this is the most ridiculous thing you've ever done. Prewa rested her forehead on the table.
05:14I know. After calming down, Fa smiled. So, what's your plan? Prewa shrugged. I don't have one.
05:26Fa thought for a moment. Then she snapped her fingers. Simple. Just pay someone to pretend.
05:33Prewa looked up. Fake girlfriend? Fa. Exactly. 30 minutes of acting. Problem solved.
05:44Prewa slowly smiled. That might actually work. A few hours later, Prewa had already been rejected
05:52six times. One girl thought she was joking. Another called her crazy. One even blocked her
05:59before she could finish explaining. Prewa sighed. Maybe this was a terrible idea. Feeling tired,
06:07she walked into a small, quiet cafe to take a break. Soft music was playing. The smell of fresh
06:14coffee filled the air. A young woman wearing a black apron walked over. She carried a menu in one hand.
06:22Welcome. Welcome. What would you like to order? Prewa looked up. For a second, she forgot what she was
06:29about to say. The girl standing in front of her looked calm. Her long black hair was neatly tied back.
06:37No.
06:37She wasn't wearing makeup. Yet there was something naturally beautiful about her. Her name tag read,
06:43Laylin. Prewa. One iced latte, please. Laylin. Anything else? Prewa smiled. Then, without thinking,
06:56she quietly said, Actually, I need a fake girlfriend. Laylin blinked once. She looked at Prewa for a few
07:04seconds, then answered with a completely straight face. I'm sorry. We don't have that on the menu.
07:14Laylin nodded politely, then walked back to the counter. Prewa quietly watched her as she welcomed
07:21another customer. She noticed how calm Laylin was. Even when the cafe became busy, she never looked
07:28annoyed. She listened carefully to every customer, and always answered with a gentle smile. A few minutes
07:35later, Laylin finished serving the last customer. She disappeared into the staff room. Prewa looked
07:42toward the counter one more time. Then she quietly whispered to herself, Maybe I should ask her.
07:50She took a deep breath. A few minutes later, Laylin walked out of the staff room. She had changed into
07:57a simple white shirt and light blue jeans. Without the cafe apron, she looked completely different.
08:04Prewa stood up and walked toward her. Prewa. Excuse me. Laylin stopped and looked at her.
08:13Yes? Prewa smiled awkwardly. Can I talk to you for a minute? Laylin checked the time on her phone.
08:22Then she nodded. Sure. The two of them walked outside the cafe. The evening breeze felt cool after the rain.
08:30For a few seconds, neither of them spoke. Finally, Prewa broke the silence.
08:37I'm about to ask you something. It might sound really strange.
08:43Laylin looked at her calmly. Go ahead.
08:47Prewa took a deep breath. I'm looking for someone to pretend to be my girlfriend.
08:54There was complete silence. Laylin simply looked at her. She didn't laugh. She didn't look shocked.
09:02She just waited for Prewa to explain. Prewa quickly continued.
09:08Only for 30 days. I'll pay you. I know this sounds crazy, but I really need your help.
09:16Laylin stayed quiet for a moment. Then she asked,
09:20Why me?
09:22Prewa smiled nervously.
09:26Because, out of everyone I met today, you were the only person who treated me kindly.
09:32Laylin looked into Prewa's eyes. She could tell Prewa wasn't joking.
09:37But the request still didn't make any sense.
09:41After a few seconds, Laylin gave her answer.
09:45I'm sorry. I can't do that.
09:48She gave a small, polite nod, then turned around and started walking away.
09:53Prewa stood there without saying a word.
09:56She watched Laylin disappear into the crowd.
09:59Then she let out a long sigh.
10:02Looks like...
10:03Finding a fake girlfriend isn't going to be as easy as I thought.
10:07And that's the end of episode one.
10:09Will Prewa give up?
10:11Or will she find a way to convince Laylin?
10:14We'll find out in episode two.
10:16Until then, take care.
10:18And I'll see you in the next episode.
10:20Bye-bye.
