Grace wakes up with an insistent shrill of her phone ringing making her roll on her bed trying to get up as well figure out where her phone exactly was.

After finding it somewhere inside the bed with her tumbled she cuts the call without checking it.

She hates cell phone with a passion anything to do with things that says social contact she despises it. Being not a social bird as well a morning person, she goes back to bed happily; only for the phone to keep ringing, still she ignores it.

"Not going to happen" she grumbles as she cuts the call and keep the phone in silent mode.

Grace wakes up after few hours and finishing her morning ritual, she sits down on her couch munching on her breakfast when her home phone rings, again she ignores it.

When the phone does not stop ringing finally she gives in and picks it up just so the stupid thing stops irritating her.

"Grace, finally. Where were you? I have been trying your phone for like last three hours. Why are you not picking up your cell phone?" an irritated voice shouts at Grace

"Good morning to you too, Vicky" she replies dryly

"Well, its afternoon in there ad here too but nonetheless, I call to give you a great news" Vicky squeals and Grace winches

"Geez blast my ear drums while you are at it" she deadpans making Vicky giggle

"I'm getting married" all of a sudden the excited voice of Vicky follows up with more squeal and screams from the phone irritating her even more

"Oh wow, that's so great. Awesome, congratulations" Grace wishes once she is sure no more screaming will be done

"I know right. I am so excited about the marriage and you have to come here. It is next week" the shouting starts again

"Next week, isn't that way too fast?" she asks as she tries to remember if Vicky was dating someone

"It is but I am not complaining. Papa wants us to marry as soon as we can"

"Wait, are you pregnant" Grace asks in shock an finally the screams stops

"What, no, no oh god no Gracie, I am not pregnant. Papa arranged this marriage with one of his business partner" Vicky notifies as she tries to assure everyone that she was not pregnant

"A business deal you mean? Wow, I never thought of all people you will marry for business?" Grace laughs without humor as she cannot believe her cousin is doing an arrange marriage

"Grace I would love to chat you up on every detail but I have lots to do so please take the next flight and come here. I need you" Vicky pleads her

"I wish I can but I cannot just leave everything in here just like that and come running to you. I will try to make till wedding day" she promises and again the shouts erupts from the phone

"No, that is not possible. Grace you need to be her before the wedding day, we need to go shopping and stuff and you did say that you were planning to move in here about some job you applied and what not" Vicky complains as Grace refuses to catch the next flight

"Okay, yes because of that whole thing I cannot just pack my bags and rush to you. I need to clear everything out in here before I even step a foot in there...

I promise I will be there in the wedding day, now come on" Grace begs as the phone goes silent for quiet sometime before she hears Vicky groan and smiles in victory
