Andrew likes to talk on the phone. It need not be a real phone. His hand works. Today, the aluminum foil that wrapped his ham-and-cheese sandwich served the purpose on the way to school.
Andrew: Hello! Who's there? [pause] Hi Mom!
Me: Hi Andrew!
A: No. It's a different mom.
Me: Okay.
A: Don't say anything at all.
Me: [scared to acknowledge the instruction]
A: How are you? Are you good? [pause] Yes. [pause] Grandpa and Sivi. [pause] Okay bye bye!
He then recounted the conversation for me, since I wasn't privy to Different Mom's side, except he didn't tell me what Different Mom had said but instead just repeated his part. Then he called Grandpa and Sivi. He had a different plan for them, which he told me ahead of time. The plan was followed.
A: Ring! Ring!
A: [waits for them to say 'hi']
G&S: [Hi]
A: [hangs up]
