Bio:
Hellooo people of mjfic.com!
I'm an author here and writing has been a passion of mine since a very early age. I love all things literary - whether it's reading or writing. I adore literature and am huge fan of John Steinbeck, F. Scott Fitzgerald, Shakespeare and C.S Lewis among others. I also study English Literature and one of my favourite novels ever is The Great Gatsby.
I'm currently doing A-Levels in the UK, but outside of school, I'm an avid artist and have been drawing since I was in nappies. Another creative hobby of mine is music - I sing and play and I'm learning how to produce using software.
Music in general is a great part of my life and I listen to mainly Hip-Hop and R&B, both from today and from the 90s, though I like my House and Dancehall too.
I grew up around MJ and his music and he fascinates and inspires me. My favourite allbum of his is Bad, as is the era, though I love him from 1958-2009. I combined two of the loves of my life and ended up writing a fanfiction story on this site. I take pride in my written work and doing anything creative is like a release for me.
I'm still young and don't really know what I'll do in life XD but as for now, I know that I want to keep writing until the story is finished for you guys.

I wanted drama. I got drama. Well Marcus has like -0 chill so. YES he was out of line lmao. The family dynamics were fun though but I wish Michael and Marcus didn’t need to bring their beef into the entire cookout but thankfully Roy broke it up🙄. Looks like Michael and Janet are going to need to fight for Eva’s attention! To me, it’s like she’s already family but she just doesn’t know t yet. I can tell they LOVE her and she def enjoyed trying out those foods. Again I’m enjoying seeing the clash of cultures. Hopefully Mike is alright! Wonderful tomato ðŸ…
Author's Response:
You asked and you received the drama you wanted. Ikr they shouldn't have but what can you do with those two smh and yes thankfully Roy came in and shut it down. Yas she will have two of them and she won't know how to handle it lool. I agree she doesn't know it but she will realise in due time. The jackson clan are a welcoming bunch minus idiots like Marcus smh. She sure did and gosh I hope he's OK too. Thanks onion!

That is one hectic af household! People running everywhere half-naked. Lol. Aw she dressed up and we know why haha. I wanna meet Aadesh's Spanish gf oooh seems like forbidden relationships are a recurring theme here. TBH - glad Michael forgave her and let her model but he seemed desperate to get the project done. Still he was being fussy af like the perfectionist he was lolll poor Eva she's never done that before give her a break Mike - she really should get a pager so she can contact him! GOOD POINT. And love how they got over the awkwardness and she lost track of time with Michael and he let her keep their first memoriam together.
Wonder what Riya's reaction will be..... Great chapter tomato. <3
Author's Response:
lmao cause the twins don't care for privacy smh. of course she has a reason to dress up and don't worry we shall meet the young lady soon lol. michael is too forgiving but it's good at the same time but maybe he just wanted to get it done between the deadline, everything has to be done right tsk. he does need to find a way to get in contact with her but we shall how that goes. thanks onion <33
Date: Jun 28, 2018 Title: Chapter 18: XVIII
Yikes Michael didn’t take the truth so well. He just needs time and to give Eva a chance to explain. He must be sooo confused and sad I feel so bad for mikeðŸ˜. He clearly doesn’t understand why Eva had to keep it a secret and I don’t think he gets just how big this thing is... At least Aunt Jay could bring some happiness with her good news! And damn that cliffhanger I wonder if Eva will be able to tell her side of the story, if he’ll listen. Bc rn, Michael only knows ones side - Vik’s.
Author's Response:
I agree the magnitude of what is going down has not dawned him yet that she did this for a reason and yay to aunt jay at least in the mist of drama a flicker of happiness appeared lol. we shall what goes down in the next chapter onion! mwhahahaha -cough- thanks as always <3
Date: Oct 01, 2017 Title: Chapter 2: II
BRO wtf this was so short. Seems like Eva's got her whole daily routine in place by her high-key racist grandmother :/ SO peak like the whole arranged marriage thing is really weighing down on her conscience and it must be terrifying af..! Haha but I'm just anticipating seeing her and Michael meet for the first time. Keep it up sis! <3
Author's Response:
I am SORRY this was short for you little one lmao. I will make the chapters longer in the upcoming chapters. have some mercy on me geez lol. yes I feel for poor Eva she has to live with her and have the marriage at the bank of her mind who knows something might happen lol. but we shall read when the two cuties will meet it will be legendary haha. thanks onion <3
Date: Aug 14, 2018 Title: Chapter 21: XXI
Yikes I do feel bad for Eva. Paul and Michael found out about what's happening to her which is essentially a good thing because now they know that Vikram is a dangerous af man - not that kind of dangerous, which we like, the bad kind (and now I've unintentionally made a pun out of TWO MJ songs...or is it albums?) - anyway, they know so they won't let this wedding go ahead. No way. I know they will do what they can to save Eva.
"I- I rather see you living because I care for you too much" Eva blurted out nervously staring into his russet coloured eyes.
"You care for me that much? Even with all the mean things you say?" Michael teased.
"Stop ruining the moment! I'm serious" Eva huffed to him with a roll of her eyes trying to get back to the topic.
^ love love love.
O M G. I can't believe Paul betted on when they'd kiss for the first time! LMAO. The kiss was soooo sweet, really well-written and I know you're a little shy when it comes to these things but it was great, Lorry! Aw I'm glad Eva was able to experience such a spcial and memorable moment amidst all of this marriage/Vikram bs. Legit. She deserves to be happy fam she's so young got a whole future which she could possibly spend with Michael. The ending was hard to read...Eva's like a puppet. I mean, being physically harmful is one thing, but being sexually abusive is another and I'm legit just fearing for her life at this point because it's so baddd and she's not even married to him yet man! Messy now but I'm sure it'll be cleaned up. Wonderful as always, Lorry! Update soon. <3
Author's Response:
I agree that its good Mike and Paul know now that Vikram is no good for her and is a dangerous man sigh you had to bring in the puns onion lmao and of course those two brilliant minded friends will find someway to get her out of this situation. Paul somehow is always loosing his cash either way he has enough to last him a long time so a small dent in his bank account won't effect him lool. poor girl deserves to have a live without that pervert Vikram in her life and be with Michael who can show her a new whole world (Catch that refernce from one disney film hmm? lool). something will be done Onion! thank you for all the encouraging words as always <3
Date: Oct 20, 2017 Title: Chapter 5: V
Omg Riya is scary af I'd be shook. I get she is super disappointed but just a suggestion, try to show not tell; you could describe the look on her face instead of directly saying what the look on her face was, which would make the conveying of her emotion a lot more effectual.
So heart-warming how she decided to keep the memoir in a rusty, old frame because she really just loves it that much. Just hope Riya clock it lmao. Can relate to Aadesh - not a fan of lamb curry either haha
I know I helped a bit with this, in terms of telling you about the dynamics of a typical Asian supermakret what with the funny video I sent you and going to an actual store and sending you real pics I took XD and I am NOT disappointed. This is DEF accurate, it lives up! Nice that these two cultures are interested in each-other. The race issue is just left right and centre in this chapter wow. It's good Michael can't understand what was being said jeez lol
Was def a unique way of spending time together and I get the right vibes from Mike he's sooooo nice. Great chapter tomatoooo <3
Author's Response:
I will always take your words in lol. I'll try to do that more as I'm writing. Eva truly loved the picture they took together and kept it if riya sees she will not be happy lol. Poor Adil can't get a break lol. I'm glad I did your culture justice and hope to continue haha. poor mj don't need to understand what was said for his own good (for now). thank yooou lovely for the feedback onion <33
Date: Nov 03, 2017 Title: Chapter 7: VII
Whatevvv I wanted to read this. Bye.
I loved that entire hair scene with Michael and Eva😂I remember when we discussed it and she I totally asked if she could touch his hair and then I convinced you to make Eva just do it out of the blue haha, I’m glad it’s his way because it’s soooo much more loose, more playful, kinda sexy how she instead spontaneously catches him off guard to cop a feel. Yes Eva. Lmao. Michael questions where Paul’s tea is. HAHAHAHA relatable!!!! Maybe that’s why Paul is being extra annoying lmao he doesn’t have his damn tea with him. Other people need a Snickers bc they’re not themselves. PAUL NEEDS TEA.
Sweetu. L M A O (forever despising this term of endearment, like when random aunties I’ve never met call me that)
legit tho how did Paul find her house lmao! He’s so weird. He’s like one of those characters on a sitcom that needs their own spinoff. I can see Eva and mike def get closer what with breaking the touch barriers. I can wait to read this party!👀 lowkey glad the twins aren’t going they would pester Eva the whole time but it’s typical they’d want to attend a college party. Knowing Paul, it’s prob gonna be crazy af. Is Michael gonna be there? He better be!!
Why’s you leave us hangin!!! Update soon tomato! Xx
Author's Response:
Gosh on you can't even be sly when admitting it? Girl bye lmao. Eva had the curiosity and she didn't let that stop her from touching the afro lol. Yes Paul needs his tea just like the snickers advert and if not come off extra sassy lmao. I don't know Paul has his ways and I think he does need his own spin off with himself and his harem ew lol. The party is going to be lit and the twins don't care they'd find a way to get involved ish. Of course Mike has to be there can't let his friend be alone lool. I'll never leave you hanging it's coming soon onion! Thanks as always for funny comments 😂
Date: Dec 30, 2017 Title: Chapter 13: XIII
I have time to read this!!!
YAS OMFG A DAY IN THE LIFE OF PAUL!!! What a treat! Haha of course Paul needs a king-sized bed! He's not even just a ladies man; he belongs in the playboy mansion XD. Man, Joel is annoying af tho. Now - is Paul there to shop for clothes, or for girls? LOL. Their little scheme so Paul can chat up Georgina was brilliant omg. Paul should legit pay Joel for agreeing to it haha. Plus, it worked, so...!
YES HIS EGO IS HIGH. He starts calling her 'Dear Georgie', what a charmer lol! Clearly Paul has quite a reputation, but he defff lives up to it. I already told you I wasn't expecting to see Michael and Eva in this chapter but that's the beauty of this chapter - what I love most about this is that it's a look into what Paul does all day, leading up to when he finally settles and finds time to spend with his two best fwends, Mike and 'The Famous Eva'. It's also just interesting because we hear about Paul talk about his women and all, but actually reading and seeing what goes on behind the scenes, as I did in this chapter, has made it my favourite by FAR.
You already know I've loved this Paul since day 1 and you knowww I wanted this, so thank you soooo much for making it happen! It seems like I'm asking one thing after another from you but PAUL NEEDS HIS OWN SPINOFF SEQUEL-THING OF HIM AND HIS PURSUE OF GEORGIA LOLLL. But that's a different story (quite literally). Loved this so much, Lorry! <3 Was so worth the wait.
Author's Response:
yass I'm surpised Paul hasn't even started his own playboy mansion and made his money minus the shady stuff lmao. well Paul is a smart cunning guy behind all that gentleman manner lol. he already calls poor georgie she ain't feeling him but she will learn to deal with him eventually. Paul always has time for his friends even when he should be getting his work done and getitng ready to take over from a business smh. gosh i'd love to make a spinoff for them but for now i'll have more filler chapters of paul's persuit for poor gegorie lmao. I'm glad you enjoyed it so much Onion!! <3
Date: Oct 30, 2017 Title: Chapter 6: VI
Lmao Paul with his tea is so me. YAS MICHAEL PSL IS LIT LOLLL that's why I love this time of year. He's such a ladies man and then Michael is just refraining from being a total f-boy lol. Love that she finally met Paul. Calls her "the famous Eva". HAHAH MICHAEL WUT HAVE YOU BEEN TELLING PAUL. i can see why she's taken aback by Paul and his hoes I mean female friends because that kinda thing would be wronggggggg assss fffff in India. TRUST
I think Paul def likes her. Not as much as Michael though....but she seriously is denouncing any possibilty that they will ever be together? Well she IS someone's fiance, but ouch....lol
Ofc Uncle Roy is up to his usual uncle-antics lmao. When he said he feels lucky I thought that meant Jay was maybe gonna let him smash OK BYE LOLLLLL. Fr tho, Roy and Jay are just goals. Legit. Where do I sign up for their type of relationship awwww XD take notes, Michael!
ALSO GET WITH THE TIMES EVA LOL
Need more of Michael and Eva's time together please! Perhaps they can do more fun stuff rather than watch the game bc we already know how adventurous Michael is. Another photoshoot with Mike as the annoying director? XD Wonderfully done sis <3
Author's Response:
This whole comment had me laughing. You are so silly onion lmao. I agree Paul has his harem and clearly don't care lol. At least they got along somewhat to Michael's relief. Yass relationship goals for the win with aunt Jay and uncle Roy! And don't be silly smh lol. Of course Mike will find another way to annoy her haha. Your wish is my command. Thanks little one<3
Date: Nov 18, 2017 Title: Chapter 9: IX
Love their car bantering they're like a younger version of Uncle Roy and Aunt Jay lmao. I like how he wanted to learn more about Eva's culture. I def have that spice jar palette thing with like 6 individual pots of spices LOL. Michael's a wuss - can't even handle the smell of chilli powder...he should try my mum's cooking lmao he'd DIE haha. Funny scene there when Michael had to HIDE from that terrifying Riya - reminded me of a similar siuation I wrote once <3.
SHE KISSED HIM AW!!!! kind of. Mike prob thinks he's already going out with Eva, considering Janet 'knows about her', lol but I can't get enough of their time together it's lit. Wondeful tomatoooo <3
Author's Response:
they are going heading into that direction without even knowing ha. Michael is a curious guy and he wants to know more about her. it's sad he can't handle the spice. spice is life and delicious lol. he defo won't be able to handle your mother's cooking but i'll glad go in his place to try your mum's cooking. well Better to be safe and away from her racist ass -rolls eyes-. yes one step closer eh well in between and who knows what's going on in michael's mind won't be surpised if he's thinking of that lol. thanks onion <3
Date: Dec 15, 2017 Title: Chapter 12: XII
Ah forbidden love everywhere. I get why the twins are being cautious about Sophia and Aadesh’s secret relationship but I completely agree with Adil here - legit, I don’t think Eva will mind lmao...she can prob relate, seeing as her closeness with Michael isn’t exactly going to be approved by her grandma. And I can only imagine Riya’s reaction to finding out about them both. I just pray it never happens - esp not at the same time! 😂 Marcus why is he back. He can take several seats, tf he think he is calling my tea-man Paul an ALBINO? SEATS. They’re all a bunch of kids tho LOL.
Also the little kiss scene was well written fr. Don’t be nervous about them! Loved it â¤ï¸ðŸ…
Author's Response:
indeed forbidden love is flourishing lol. I agree too Eva won't mind as well since she is growing closer to mike and well who cares what the old hag thinks smh and it will be legenadary when she finds out but let's be hopeful she will never find out yikes. Marcus needs to leave and find himself a therapist for all that pent up anger smh. yas how dare he call our tea loving fella an albino! blamspherry! and all of em need time out in the kid corner lmao, ugh I'm not looking forward to the actual kissing stage gah but thanks Onion I tried!

What up. It’s ya girl. Here to read and review!
Ok 5th May yeah. CHRIS BROWN’S BIRTHDAY OMG LOL. Daadi’s obliviousness to Vikram’s true nature just makes this 10x more ironic and I love it. Nice that you added some visuals! Would be great to see more of these. It’s always tough, as writers, going into detail about what scenery/character appearances look like, but a picture can say more than words which is useful. McDonalds. Classy, Mike. Also spice isn’t unhealthy bye Michael. Aw cutest ‘friends’ ever! She’s taking care of him! And she held his hand! *screaming*
But all that sweetness is just ruined by Vik’s hitmen. Still not used to seeing my cousin’s name in there LOL but I’m honestly on the edge rn. “Nothing will harm you in my presence” THE IRONY. Well he was right. They were both ok...sounded like more of a warning. He should’ve told Eva what just happened instead of putting them both in danger.
BOY NAMED KENDRICK DOES HIS SECOND NAME HAPPEN TO BE LAMAR LOL ðŸ˜. I really liked the dynamics of this chapter, lots of diff settings and emotions going on. The ending was kinda grim fam. Vik clearly expected more and by the looks of it, he’s gonna get what he wants. Michael needs to be more careful and he needs to tell her what’s going on fam...this involves her too. Great update Lorry!
Author's Response:
I DIDN'T KNOW IT WAS HIS BIRTHDAY CHILD. PURE CONDINENCE lool. Daadi needs a reality check but I dounbt she will with how brain washed she is smh. yeah i agree the part that stumps me most is trying to describe the place even with research. great time for a picture ha! lmao. oh come he is a teenager not a popstar *cough cough* sheesh let him live (cheaply bang bang). I see you clocked on their 'friendship status' and yass finally they are getting somewhere *squeals~*. sadly sweetness doesn't last long when vik isn't around he sucks all the life out of the ze room and i agree mike should have but he didn't which we will find out soon why he didn't hmm. shhhhhh his last name ISN'T Lamar gosh lmao. yes mike needs to be careful but we shall how it goes with the pair working together lol. THANKS MY PRECIOUS BABY <3

OH MY GOD. FINALLY. THE MONENT HAS ARRIVED!!! YOU POSTED THIS FINALLY! Oh wow it’s been a long two months of planning and changing the story plot multiple times and I cannot wait to see all of the help and everything I’ve contributed to the story come to fruition and I look forward to reading. Every Sunday is gonna be lit lmao. Everything is on point! Of course as an Indian girl like Eva, I have to say you completely captured her culture and Vikram is just intimidating as ever! Like so scary and freakishly charming. “Kiss me”. But yeah the twins are snappy as ever I love how we already get a look into the the majority of the cast’s personalities and it’s only been one chapter. Michael aw such a bean, lowkey hates class but I already stan him and Paul. I can tell the situation with Eva and her husband-to-be is already sticky and I anticipate Michael and Eva’s meet. I don’t really have anything else to say other than I’m so happy this is finally up! Next Sunday better come QUICK! Keep it up sis <3
Author's Response:
thank you my precious little one. I am glad it met the expectations we had to go though. the amount of plot vhanging was too funny lmao. I indeed had fun writing it! I'm glad I was able to get the culture right. it's all thanks to you pushing me <3

This act that Eva and Vikram both have to keep up around Riya wow. Weird af...! Aw she feels like is the end for her and Michael already and although it seems impossible at the moment LOVE will find a way! Michael’s already a lot more optimistic than she is. So glad to see Adil has had a change of heart too - Eva doesn’t need any more ops in her life lol. Haha why does Roy swear so unneccesarily? Anyway I like how no matter what the occasion or what they do, it’s always a real fun time whenever Eva and Mike link up. They’re so comfortable with each-other by now but I can’t help but feel like trouble is brewing at the mere mention of Vikram. 😫 please let this last. Don’t want my two babies to be separated.
Author's Response:
the whole act is just cringy ew. i agree LOVE will previal and find a way to get them out of this mess. Its good to see at least one twin agrees but we can only hope and pray Aadesh has a change of heart too and soon! Poor Eva lool. Uncle Roy will swear to his heart's content without a care given lmao. I'm so glad too whereever they go they have fun nonethless but Vik is always watching in the shadows and can only get worse from here! I will never keep them seperated -evil smirk- cough never. Thanks onion!
Date: Aug 30, 2018 Title: Chapter 22: XXII
Their lil lunchtime in the treehouse was sweet...til Eva freaked. I get she’s worried but she’s not really hurting Vikram by hanging out with Michael...at most, Vik will be jealous but doesn’t genuinely care about/love his bride-to-be. But I agree with Mike that they should just continue spending time and having fun because really, what Vik doesn’t know won’t hurt him. Also he sucks ass for destroying Eva’s beautiful hard work. Great as always tomato!
Author's Response:
I agree I don't think Vikram will care for her to be with michael because he has clearly shown his feelings towards this marriage and the way he treats her love of art smh. Yes I agree too that Eva should enjoy the moment she has with mike now because mike will find a way to get her out of this mess. ah don't ya just love a jackass that we all face in different ways in our lives? smh lol. thanks onion <3
