I was sitting staring at my screen and feeling really bored. I then started staring at my phone and willing it to ring. In my boredom, I decided to really stare at the phone and focus, therefore making it magically ring. I closed my eyes and wished for someone really interesting to be on the other side. It rang! I was startled! I quickly picked up and said an excited HELLO . A strange voice on the other side said hello back. I said, Who are you? She said fine! I said, I didnt ask how you were, man she didnt reply. I said hello again, she said, Who is this? I said, YOU phoned me, she said Yes I did, so what? I said Why? she said to ask you if you want to take part in our survey I said, what survey? she said the survey Im going to ask you about I said sorry, wrong number she said no its not I said do you know me better than me? she said why do you ask? I didnt know what to say! She said do you want to take part in our survey? I said no she said, do you mind telling me why not I said because Im bored and Im waiting for someone to call me? she said but our survey will not take much of your time! When are you expecting your phone call? I said, I dont know . She didnt say anything. I smiled. I said well, arent you going to say anything? she sounded like she was taking a deep breath then said Do you want to take part in our survey? I started giggling. She asked, Why are you laughing? I said, Im not laughing she said, Is it my voice? I said what about your voice? she said do I sound funny? I said, I dont know . She didnt say anything. I didnt say anything. A few seconds later, she said, Ive got to go, can I call you back later? I said ok . She said bye . I said bye . Just as I was about to put the phone down I heard her say, What was your name again? I picked the phone up to answer her but there was nobody on the other side. She was nice.
