Well, let’s recap. I have a file of my “customer”, all I must know about her, her number to receive instructions. So, why am I so nervous? Maybe cause it’s the first time I do it and I don’t know on which character type I’m gonna bump into. Or else, I don’t know what she wants.
Okay, relax, it’s just a call. Unless, after all, I’ll be set once and for all. Here we go. BIP! BIP! BIP! BIP! BIP! BIP! BIP! BIP! BIP! BIP!... RINGING… RINGING…
“Hello?” asked a taut voice.
“Yes, I’m Maximiliano… Maximiliano Furo. I’m the Husbando you asked for.”
Little suspension points before nearing her again, joyful: “Oh, it’s great. I don’t think it would answer me as quickly… Whatever.”
“Good, but maybe, I’ll be more useful if I know what to do.” I tried to get it out of her.
New suspension points longer this time. Okay, it starts to get weird here.
“Hello?”
“Yes, sorry. It’s just… err… I’m trying to see how I can explain you my situation, but… no, it’s rather loose to check this kind of news on the phone.”
“Alright. So, what do you want to do?”.
“That we need face to face, in due form. But will be possible for you to come?”
“Yes, I think, but it might take quite some time.” I confessed, after doing some searches.
“Listen, it’s not a problem. The most important, that’s the trip’s going without incident. When you leave, just think to tell me what date you’ll come, time I arrange to come pick you up.”
“Very well. If anything changes, call me or leave a message. I would probably put some time to answer, but I’ll do it.”
“Okay, point taken.”
“Great.”
Well, it’s cool that she’s not in a hurry. It lets me time to pack my stuff and prepare my travel cause it’s not exactly on my doorstep.
“Good, I’m pleased we have clarified issues.”
“Not all but it’s a good start, I must admit.”
“It’ll be clearer in a couple days, you have my word.” She promised.
“We hope, you really seem like.”
“Indeed, Mr. Furo. Well, I’ve to go, we’ll talk soon.”
“Okay, goodbye.”
“Bye.”
Phew! For a first call, it’s quite encouraging. Even if I still don’t know what she wants from me, this girl seems friendly. So, it’s already a good point.
Now, I must find a way to come over there. At least, it will be a walk in a park coming to Minnesota.
This was irony.
