"Hello?" Peter says from the other line.
"Good morning Peter." I say with a grin as I stare as Chris who is sitting on the table and scratching his head hoping to get some proper lyrics for his song.
"Hey so my mum has got an order for a marriage so she said it would be excellent if you could come over and help her out. Actually go shopping for her. " he says.
"Oh! Yeah sure, I'm not busy or anything so might as well" I say feeling quite happy about it.
"Okay so here's the plan. We go to the city center in my car. You and Chris can shop and also buy the ingredients for mum while I'll be at Naomi's and on your way home you can drop Chris to Liverpool hostelry and take the car to my house and catch up with the neighborhood gossip with my mum or do whatever you want" he says ecstatically .
"Sounds like a plan but you know how much I hate driving around with Chris" I say honesty.
"And I know how much you love me" he says being the big brother he is to me "Oh please do this for me I hate grocery shopping. I try everything in my ability to avoid it and this one time I jumped of the window to avoid going shopping but I broke my arm. Oh please, I will owe you my life." He pleads, he reminds me of how much Paul hated going shopping with Bethany or mom and he always made up some excuse and sent me instead.
Oh, Paul I miss you so much.
"All right but I hate you for making me do this" I say with a groan
"Thank you. I'll be outside in thirty minutes"
"Okay bye" I say hanging up.
I look at Chris and I begin to feel frustrated. I hate driving with him, he one of the back seat drivers and he annoys the hell outta me. I would love to break his jaw while we are driving so he loses the ability to speak. Unfortunately that it will be considered presumptuous
"Get up and change. I'm certain you don't want to be presented in front of the market in these clothes" I say going up to change into elegant attire.
"I don't want to go" He says still scribbling something on the paper.
"We have to go shopping so get up" I order, he complains but I ignore it and go back up to change.

"How long are we going to be in here?" Chris asks as I pick a beautiful red dress.
"A couple of minutes" I reply
"You have been saying that since two hours"
"Many minutes make an hour, we have been here for only a 120 minutes so I don't see the need to complain" I reply with a grin.
He rolls his eyes and begins to write something on the paper again. I go into the trail room and try on the red dress, it looks beautiful but my skin looks so white and pale. I come out with my two semi finalised dresses, a teal one and the red one.
"Which one?" I ask displaying the dresses to him.
"Both look okay. Just take whatever you wish to" he says
"Can't you just suggest one" I whine
"Uhhh.. Uhmm the red one" he says
"Don't you think my skin looks pale when I wear it" I say
"If you have pale skin then that's how it's going to look." he says rolling his eye.
"It's not very pale also. I'm not a vampire or something." I reply with annoyance.
"I highly doubt that since you have been sucking my blood since this morning" he flashes me a triumphant smile.
"Asshole" I say under my breath
