"Hey, hot pepper."

"What the heck? It's two in the morning."

"Well, not for me. And I still have to do my required daily therapy session."

"Are you sure that's why you're calling? Cause I hate to break it to you, but you're not a good therapist."

"To be honest, I'm bored out of my mind while my mother is busy deciding between white and mauve tablecloth or some crap like that, so I needed a distraction. And I'm jetlagged, and I have mosquito bites all over my body, even in those places where the sun doesn't shine."

"Thanks for sharing that extremely vital piece of information."

"You're so welcome."

"So how's your sister doing?"

"She's super excited for the wedding, but she kind of turned into a bridezilla. No offense. She literally threw a tantrum when one of the buttons came loose on her wedding dress."

"Sounds riveting." 

"I'm honestly so glad the wedding is tomorrow. I can't deal with her crap for longer than that."

"Are you serious? It's the most important day of her life! It needs to be perfect."

"As long as you're with the person you love, isn't that perfect enough? Does it really matter if the tablecloth is white or mauve?"

"Good point. Anyway, tell me more about India. I've always wanted to visit."

"You've never been? This is my tenth time here or something like that."

"Well, we can't all be rich, spoiled kids, am I right?"

"Ok? Um...sorry, didn't mean to offend you. Anyway, India is super pretty and the food is amazing. We're staying at this super fancy resort with tons of palm trees and -"

"Why are you on the phone? Help me pick out the flowers, NOW!" 

"Shit, that's my sister. I've got to go before she throws another tantrum. Sorry pepper!"

"No problem. Bye!"
