Durian is my nemesis.
And if I do a great job at being her fake boyfriend, maybe she\'ll want me to be her real one....
I\'ll even take her to a Durian dessert shop.
I\'ll charm Valerie and her family, and I\'ll figure out why she\'s scared of relationships and gave up her career in software development.
Her supposed boyfriend is a pediatric resident, but no big deal, right? My job\'s in landscaping, but I can pretend to be a doctor.
And somehow, this chance encounter leads to me agreeing to be her fake boyfriend to get her mom off her back about her dating life.
But despite her fondness for durian, Valerie is beautiful and delightfully prickly and stares at me when I take off my soiled shirt.
So when Valerie Chow spills her Durian ice cream all over me, I shouldn\'t fall in love.
Bleh.
In my opinion, the spiky fruit smells like natural gas and rotten onions with eau de vomit.
We have a long, painful history.
Durian is my nemesis
