A Conversation from Long Back

“You called?”

“No”

“But you’re laughing”

(Dude when I call and leave a message you seldom call back. And now when I  hadn’t really called you call out of the blue. How am I expected to react?)

I didn’t say that.

“Here I was so bored I was hoping to find at least a cat to talk to”

“Hmm”

Don’t know what he found so amusing in it. The next day he presented himself with a big grin “Here’s a cat you can talk to”
