Wrong Number

In collaboration with Paul Bell.

Will you answer the phone, I'm in shower!
The number looked familiar, he held the receiver to his ear.
Gail, it's Pam
She did't even wait for the usual formalities of phone calls, thank god. This would not be good.
I have to talk to you Gail, can you hear me? Do you know what that b*****d of a boyfriend Tom is doing? He's cheating on me. I swear to god, I'll rip his head off when I get him. Then I'll rip her head off.
I think you've got the wrong number
Who is this?
Ferdinand!
Ferdinand?
Sim
Like the bull?
No bull, just Ferdinand!
You know the story of Ferdinand the bull?
I beg your pardon
Sorry just wanted to talk to Gail.
Wrong number!
Where are you talking from?
Portugal!
What? Portugal? You kidding me?
Me, No kidding
Sorry to disturb you. I can't imagine how I got a number in Portugal?
These things happen!
It seemed like an eternity and more when he finally hung up the phone.
Tom who was on the phone?
Some foreign fella, seems he was getting your calls.

i laugh for crying friends .... wrong numbers that remain in disbelief and robo calls are all the same aggravation ... we got calls for a young lady named Cindy for months ..especially from some guy that insisted she was at our home..we were called by the police looking for her...churches and choirs ..oh my!!!!!!! finally the calls stopped ... arrrrrrrrrgh!

That must have been really unpleasant. Did the existence of Cindy mystery ever solved? Thank you for reading and sharing your experience. Have a very pleasant week.

[Einstein Noodle]

yes in fact it did ..i tract her down to a small town about 40 miles away and sought to visit with her ...but she was either not home or didn't answer and shrtly after that the calls seemed to stop ... we have done all the normal stuff one can do...notify the phone company, and those that called ..but the churches and the boyfriend (if it was a boyfriend) were insistent we were hiding her .. i told them i would join the choir if they wanted but after a few notes over the phone they declined ;)))))))))))))

Even though you got caught in a peculiar drama , you went out of your way to checkout the welfare of that Cindy was wonderful .

[Einstein Noodle]

well....i was pissed ;} tired of taking her calls ... but thank you ...you are very kind!

[Paul Bell]

[Mrudula Rani]

If she ever finds out... consequences are catastrophic!
