Suddenly I decided to play a small prank. I talked to her as if I'd just realized something, "Oh, golly. I see. My roommate is Joseph. I've never called him Joe. Sure, you've got the right phone number!"

"Is he around?" asked the girl. "Unfortunately, he is not. You know what? He flew to California for his holiday. He made the decision in a sudden three days ago. I am wondering why he had to go there. Do you have any idea?"
