The line cackled to life…
He cleared his throat and squeaked…”ummm, you said you’d bring my wildest fantasy true…in this advertisement here…” regretting the words even as he said it.
Silence never felt so loud…
“You idiot, next time dial the right number!!!” came the outraged reply.
And that was the end of his fantasy…
