Chapter 4
After getting home I went straight up to my room ignoring anyone's attempt to talk to me taking off my stupid dress, it's stupid cause I'm angry and got into an oversize t-shirt and shorts which I love more.
I finally plopped into my bed remembering everything that just trespass few hours ago and the fact that I would be getting married three weeks from now.
Ugh!
Great!
Just great.
There won't be any engagement party according to Adeline due to fact that my so called husband is too busy to even have the time, so I was given an engagement ring which was also a family heirloom passed down from generations, it is huge and very breathe taking and definitely cause millions.
My phone rang snapping me at of my thoughts, not bothering checking who was calling.
" What" I said and Immediately pitied the person at the receiving end.
"Woah woah, what got your panties in twist" my best friend replied, lifting up my spirit.
" I'm sorry Vicki, I'm just not in a good mood right now"
" How lame was the dinner, what happened" she said, turning serious.
"Turns out I'm getting married three weeks from now"
" Wow, that fast."
" Yeah, it's been decided and I totally wasn't expecting it to be this early." sighing "as much as I don't want this wedding I need to think about my family and Adeline seems like a nice person."
" Who is Adeline"
" Adeline Reeves, my suppose husband mom, since he was to busy to show up"
" Oh my gosh, are you getting married to Giovanni Reeves?" She asked excitedly.
"yeah" I answered her in a bored tone
Wait.... How did she know his name.
" How did you know his name" I asked skeptically, I don't remember telling her.
" Are you kidding me, who doesn't know the Reeves, the almighty Giovanni Reeves" she exclaimed, dramatically might I add.
" I won't ask if I knew, would I" I answered rolling my eyes at the process.
" Where exactly have you been living Roy, you have been to those fancy dinners your parents go to" she said, talking to me like I was an alien.
It not my fault I hardly pay attention to anyone at those dinner party, it's way too boring for my liking and filled with Rich arrogant snobbish Prince and princess.
" Your point exactly is what Vicki" I asked with a little bit of sassiness.
" The Reeves are one of the Richest family in New York, if not the world" she gushed. " and don't get me started with Giovanni Reeves".
Holy shit!.
It all made sense now, why Adeline looked so familiar. I was so stressed out that I didn't even recognize their name.
I can't believe my parents are marrying me off to the Richest family in our society and I'm only finding out now.
Cue the freaking out scream.
" Boo, you're so lucky! He is the hottest bachelor like on the planet and every girls dream" I could imagine her drooling.
" and yet he didn't even bother showing up, what a douchebag". I said angrily.
" A very hot douchebag" she answered.
" Who doesn't show up for something this important".
" I understand boo, but God! is he hot. Where can I find me a hot Giovanni Reeves" she said exaggerating a bit, I think since I haven't really seen him yet.
" You need to stop calling him that". I snapped a little bit.
" Absolutely not!, hot doesn't even begin to describe how good he looks, he is more like a Greek god," she sighed dreamily.
I laughed at her craziness.
" That reminds me, I going to send you a pics of my engagement ring, right now" I said, turning to my camera as I took a pic of the ring and sent it to her.
"Eeeeeeee" my best friend screamed and I laughed at the precision but also had to move my phone few meters away from my ear in order not to go deaf.
" Is that the Reeves family heirloom, girl! That ring cost like a tons of money, like tons of millions" she said enthusiastically, wishing I possess little bit of her enthusiasm.
" I know, but I cant help but feel like they are all hiding something from me".
" what do you mean".
" I don't know, its just a feeling. I'm sure its nothing."
" That aside, I know how stressed out you are about this wedding and I'm definitely sure it taking a toll on you. I just want you to know that I've got you boo. Why don't you get some rest given how stressful today was, I promise you feel slightly better in the morning".
" Thank you so much babe, what would I do without you" I playfully ask her
" Nothing, not a single thing babe, now get some rest. I love you".
" Night Victoria" I answered in a sing song voice and laughed as I imagine the scowl that I know was already on her face. i knew how much she hate being called her full name.
" I take that back, I totally hate you" she threw back at me and I burst out laughing hard.
I'm so glad I have a best friend like her, she the only one who gets me.
" I love you too" I said and I knew she understands the meaning behind those four words.
" Whatever , get off my phone Camilla." I cringe at the mention of my middle name.
" Touché Vicki, touché."
Her laughter was the last thing I heard before I finally hung up
I dropped my phone on the dresser beside my bed and I was pulled into the wonderland of dreams.
