"Huh?" Martha was confused.
"If you have a watch right now, you could see that it is eight twenty five PM. That means that my boss and I have already gotten off work." The man's answer was delivered in a polite tone but it would sure send Martha in heart pain.
"Ah…I'm sorry. I got the number from my friends and Blake is my friend. I thought this was his number." She was stuttering giving her reason.
