"Good morning, pepper!"

"It's the middle of the night."

"Well, I'm sorry, I'm on an airplane back to the States."

"You're calling from an airplane? Isn't that banned or something?"

"I'm on a private plane, not the commercial ones, so I can pretty much do anything I want."

"Good for you."

"Indeed."

"How did the rest of the wedding go?"

"It went well. You were right, I was definitely being selfish. I apologized to my sister, and she convinced me that no matter what, she would always be my sister. And then there was a huge reception in the evening, which was really fun."

"Sounds cool. You know, I've never been to a wedding."

"What?! How have you never been to a wedding?"

"Well, my dad is an only child and my mom is the oldest of three. All of my cousins are younger than me, so obviously nobody has gotten married yet."

"Wow, that's really interesting. Tell me more about your family."

"No thanks."

"Umm...okay?"

"Trust me, that's a story for another time. Anyway, how long is your flight?"

"About sixteen hours. My mom is flying back with me, since she needs to attend a movie premiere event in LA tomorrow. I'm actually calling from the bathroom so that she doesn't get nosy."

"The bathroom? That's hilarious. Sorry, I wish I could talk longer, but I actually have to go now; I'll talk to you later?"

"Aww, dang it. I thought you would keep me some company on this freaking boring flight. Where do you have to go?"

"Well, you sort of interrupted a bonding sesh with my roomie."

"..."

"Hello?"

"Yeah, sorry, I didn't know you were close with your roommate?"

"I'm not, but she wanted to vent about her ex-boyfriend, and so I just offered her a shoulder to cry on. You sound weird, are you okay?"

"Yeah, I'm great, why wouldn't I be great? I'll talk you later then?"

"Sure. Goodbye."
