Wrong number!


Last Wednesday night I was sitting in my room watching television, when the phone rang.


"Hello?" I said.


A girl's voice came over the line. "Can I speak to Ben, please?"


I live by myself, and my name definitely is not Ben. It was a wrong number and I was bored. I replied, "I'm sorry, he's not in right now. Can I take a message?"


"Do you know what time he'll be back?" she responded.


"I think he said he'd be home around ten."


There was a confused silence on the other end.


"Is this Steve?"


My name isn't Steve, either. So I replied, "Yes, it is. D'you want to leave a message for Ben?"


"Well... he said he would be home tonight and asked me to call him," she said in a slightly irritated voice.


I replied, "Well, he went out with Karen about an hour ago, and said that he would be back at ten."


A shocked voice now, "Who's Karen?!"


"The girl he went out with."


"I know that! I mean... who is she?"


"I don't know her last name. Look, do you want me to leave a message for Ben?"


"Yes... please do. Tell him to call me when he gets home."


She was sounding pretty irate at this point, I could hear her temper flaring. "I sure will. Is this Jennifer?"


She exploded, "Who the hell is Jennifer?!"


Apparently she wasn't.


"Well... he's going out with Jennifer at ten. I thought you were her. Sorry... it was an honest mistake."


"Ben's the one that's made the mistake! Tell him that Alice called and that she's very upset and that I want him to call me as soon as he gets home."


I smiled and said, "Okay, I will... but Becky isn't going to like this..."
