Sitting by the phone waiting for your boo to call is Sistera situation we can all relate to.
Now replace yourself with the New Zealand prime minister, and replace your boo with president-elect Donald Trump. But in this scenario, your booty call is actually a political obligation that you can't fulfil because an earthquake devastated your South Island.
Still with us?
Prime Minster John Key appeared on morning television Tuesday, saying that Trump had tried to call him, either to return Key's earlier congratulatory phone call or to offer his support after earthquakes rocked the upper South Island region this week.
But ol' future POTUS couldn't get through, presumably because Key was busy trying to put his country back together. Although Key said, just like one does in the early stages of a blossoming romance, he had previously been sitting by his phone.
TVNZhave since reported that "The Prime Minister spoke with president-elect Donald Trump this morning, and they had a very warm and cordial conversation. Mr Trump offered his sympathies for the earthquake, and the Prime Minister congratulated him on his election." Phew! Diplomatic crisis averted.
Key also received a message of love from none other than Queen Elizabeth II via Facebook.
The message was posted to the NZ Governor General's Facebook account, offering the Queen's condolences and thoughts to those affected by the natural disaster.
