Chapter 246

He thought she was crazy. Wedding, tonight, he was so relieved that he just has to show up and nothing else. A date at the last minute that would be impossible. Especially to take someone to a wedding, they must be really close and that should mean something. He currently didn't have a girl friend and he was definitely not going to pick up the phone and randomly call some one, definitely not on a last minutes notice. But what he said stuck on his mind. He definitely didn't want to feel out of place, especially it was going to be a very small wedding and mostly people from his side. He was probably the only one from hers. He didn't want to disappoint her so he started thinking what to do.

He looked at the suit that was hanging, it was an excellent piece of work and he loved it. He went into his closet to look for a nice shirt and a tie to go with it. It was all neatly arranged and organized. He smiled remembering his sister's a few days earlier and his eyes brightened and he walked over to the coffee table and picked up his phone and dialed her number. After three rings he heard his niece on the other end and she refused to hand over the phone to her mother. After talking to her until she was satisfied his sister was on the other end of the phone.

After a short discussion he had a date. He was relieved. He knew the downside of taking his sister to a wedding but at least he will know someone there other than the bride. Especially considering it was a wedding, he knew what the topic he would be discussing with his sister, after all she has been after him to get married and settle down. He had extended the invitation to the whole family, but considering his niece’s age and unfamiliar ground, his brother-in-law opted to stay home with his daughter. Well, considering it was a last minutes notice things couldn't go better.
