Chapter 5 FIVE

After getting home, I went straight up to my room, ignoring anyone's attempt to talk to me, taking off my damn dress (I was angry, so I couldn't careless about a dress ) and got into an oversize t-shirt and shorts, which I love more.

I finally plopped into my bed, remembering everything that had just happened a 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 the 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 breath-taking and definitely causes millions.

My phone rang, snapping me out of my thoughts, not bothering to check who was calling.

"What?" I said, and immediately pitied the person at the receiving end.

"Whoa whoa, what got your pants in a twist?" my best friend replied, lifting my spirits.

" 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 husband's mom, since he was too 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 a minute... How did she know his name?

" How did you know his name?" I asked sceptically. I didn't remember telling her.

"Are you kidding me, who hasn't heard of the Reeves, the almighty Giovanni Reeves?" she exclaimed dramatically.

" 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 is not my fault. I hardly pay attention to anyone at those dinner parties; it's way too boring for my liking and filled with rich, arrogant, snobbish princes and princesses.

" Your point exactly is what, Vicki?" I asked with a little bit of sassiness.

" The Reeves are one of the richest families 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 freaked out scream.

" Boo, you're so lucky! He is the hottest bachelor on the planet and every girl's 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 as important as this" i rant

" 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 am going to send you a pic 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.

"Eeeeeee," my best friend screamed, and I laughed at the precision, but also had to move my phone a few meters away from my ear in order not to go deaf.

" Is that the Reeves family heirloom, girl?. That ring cost like a ton of money, like tons of millions," she said enthusiastically, wishing I had a little bit of her enthusiasm.

" I know, but I can't help but feel like they are all hiding something from me."

"What do you mean?"

" I don't know, it's just a feeling. I'm sure it's nothing. "

"That aside, I know how stressed out you are about this wedding and I'm definitely sure it's taking a toll on you. I just want you to know that I've got you boo. Given how stressful today was, why don't you get some rest? I promise you'll 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".

"aww, Victoria." I answered in a sing-song voice and laughed as I imagined the scowl that I knew was already on her face. I knew how much she hated being called her full name.

"I take that back, I completely despise you," she snapped back, and I burst out laughing.

I'm so glad I have a best friend like her. She's the only one who gets me.

" I love you too," I said, and I knew she understood 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.
