Ronica Casinova, or as she prefers Roni, just got out of college. Exciting huh? Well for her, she is beyond happy. She can't believe it is finally time for her to start her life with the career of a life time. Which is event planning. It was what she wanted to ever since she was a little girl. Mainly because that is what her older brother, Drake, would have wanted for her. With no love life of her own, she figured it would be easy to focus on her career planned ahead. She had decided during her college years that she would wait a few years to get into her working habit until she had a real boyfriend. It worked out for the first couple of months until she had a call from her family. She vaguely could hear her mother speak after a few short words though. ''Ronica, could you please come home? Calla had just got engaged to Sam!'' Sam being Roni's all time best friend since freshmen year at high school. She couldn't believe the words that her mother spoke to her. Why hadn't Sam told her before? And most of all, why did her younger sister have to be engaged and getting married before her? Was that enough for Roni to change her mind about the relationship status? Considering Calla, her younger sister, hadn't thought twice about the situation. Heck, if Roni's mother hadn't called, Roni would have never even knew. That comes to collusion, why didn't Sam tell her about any of this? And even though she knew she was falling for her co-worker, she wondered if she should change her mind about not being in a relationship for a long while.
