A Perfect Plan and Democracy
Previously on The Not So Perfect World :
Due to a series of unfortunate events, Jeremy has been tasked to be the leader of his high school class to prepare a simple play for their English subject. Surprised and out of it, he went home contemplating what he could do about that. What play would they even perform? His teacher, Miss Erika gave him a list of some plays they could try and emulate and perform.
When he got home, he was absorbed in watching the anime show Nisekoi and it sparked something within him that made him think that they should also try and re-enact Romeo and Juliet by Shakespeare. He imagined that he could be Romeo and Momo Kirisawa would really look good as Juliet with her pink lustrous hair.
Continuation
Jeremy made up his mind to try and sway the whole class to do the Romeo and Juliet bit and he would volunteer to be Romeo and they would likely vote Momo or Elucia to be Juliet. He would then try to do blind voting between the two so they could fairly choose who would play the role of Juliet.
His plan was simple and also quite cunning, he would try to influence the majority of the class to vote for Momo using some kind of olden technique known to men called bribery.
He was extremely sanguine that his plan would succeed and he would play the main character alongside Momo. It may have been because he's quite crushing with her but most importantly, he genuinely thought that she could really use the good exposure since Momo isn't really well received by his class.
One of the prettiest girls in school, Momo Kirisawa also stood out among her peers because no one seems to really click with her. She's not aloof nor shy, but she's just releasing this invisible barrier around her that makes people feel intimidated thus, no one really tries to get close to her, boys and girls alike. Aside, of course, from Jeremy who from the very first day of their acquaintance found out something about Momo that no one else knows. A secret so dark that could change the way people would look at her. The secret that she holds very close and locked away from the public eye and at the same time, she flaunts in the eyes of anyone who would pay. The secret is that she's an E-girl posing for nude pictures online.
If anyone else knew, it would surely spell a great deal of difference and if the school ever finds out, she'll most probably be kicked out.
Jeremy wants to help Momo adjust to the class and he wants the class to see her as their classmate and part of the team.
Their English class began and it's time for them to decide on what to do. Miss Erika left them to their own devices and entrusted Jeremy to facilitate their class meeting.
Jeremy stood up and took the floor to himself. He picked up a piece of chalk from the little box nailed at the bottom of the blackboard. The class, as usual, is divided into groups minding their own businesses. And as if wielding a magic wand, Jeremy caught all their attention with the screeching sound of the chalk against the blackboard which sends an intense pain to the brain through the ears.
Everyone fell silent as they watched Jeremy write on the board in huge bold letters "ROMEO AND JULIET". After he was finished writing, he put down the chalk and clapped his hands together to get rid of the chalk debris on his hands.
"I suggest that we do an adaptation of Romeo and Juliet play. It's very popular and very easy to imitate. Do you agree or would anyone like to suggest another play?"
Everyone in the class has their own opinion about it. Elucia felt that it was so romantic and agrees whole-heartedly and the same reaction could be seen from almost all of the girls in the class, save of course from Anna Mari Smith and her crew, and of course from Momo who wasn't even paying attention to the discussion that started before her.
"I'll take that silence as a yes. Anyone disagrees?" Jeremy asked and no one answered. Not because they weren't paying attention but they were in agreement with him.
"Now for the cast, I think..." Jeremy was stopped abruptly by someone violently and aggressively raising their hand.
"Okay, yes Junjun? What is it?" he finally asked.
"I nominate Momo to be Juliet..."
Yes Junjun, that's it. Thank you so much for nominating Momo, I know I could trust you and your glasses...
"And Mari as Romeo." Junjun finished.
Jeremy and everyone in the class were dumbfounded by the suggestion and a moment of silence ensued. And then the calm before the storm was shattered when the girls shriek out of pure excitement and the boys cheered in agreement to the brilliant thinking.
They could all imagine the same thing: Momo beautifully dressed as Juliet, and Mari cross-dressing as a really handsome guy courting Momo, that's a vision that only happens in dreams.
Jeremy was torn apart by the suggestion, a part of him is devastated that he wouldn't play Romeo to Momo's Juliet, but another part of him wants to see how the two beautiful ladies play their part.
"Momo, Mari, I don't think you may have a choice but what do you say?"
"I don't really care but it's fine," Momo said while fiddling on her phone.
"I...I.... I'm fine with it." Mari answered.
Jeremy's plan may have failed but not so much. He may not be the Romeo to Momo's Juliet but he would have the chance to witness a really interesting play.
With everyone on board, they proceeded to other aspects of the play.
