A couple of weeks ago, a date was scheduled, the guy never called to cancel and he didn't show up. Oh well I thought to myself, no big deal, there are plenty more. I left it completely out of my mind.
Thant is until he called this week. He called me and apologized for not showing up and said he felt bad but it really was unavoidable. I could hear an echo in the back ground and asked, "Is that your phone, where are you because I can hear your voice echoing?" He replied, "Oh, I am in a room and it echos in here." He continued to go on letting me know that he was going to be gone and wouldn't be able to set up another date for awhile. I had no interest in dating him anyway so I just pretended to be nice.
I started hearing some men talking in the background of the phone. "Is someone talking to you? It is difficult for me to understand what you are saying with others talking in the background." I asked him. "No," he said, "It is just some guys waiting to use the phone." Then I joked, "What are you at a pay phone or something? Didn't they stop making those in the 1990's?" He ignored the comment and he didn't laugh. He just said, "I have to go but I wanted to call you." We said good-bye and hung up.
With an odd expression on my face and a strange feeling in my mind, I knew something was fishy. I picked up the phone and dialed automatic call back. I was bit alarmed to hear a recording on the number that I had dialed a pay phone at the county jail and no in coming calls were allowed. Holy crap! That guy better not call me again!
