Needing to have an urgent work problem resolved, he dialed the
employee’s home phone number and was greeted by a child’s whispered,
“Hello.”
“Is your dad home?” he asked.
“Yes,” whispered the little voice.
Yes, you can talk to him.
The child said, “No,” very softly.
When the boss asked if the child’s mom was there, the child was surprised and wanted to talk to an adult.
Yes, I understand.
May I talk to her?
Again the small voice whispered, “No.”
The boss asked if anyone was there, and when no one answered, he assumed that no one else was there. He wanted to leave a message, but nobody was there to listen.
Yes, a policeman is a person who helps keep the peace.
The boss asked the policeman if he could speak with him.
“No, he’s busy,” the child whispered.
What are you doing?
The little girl said that she talked to Mommy, Daddy, and the firefighter.
The boss was getting worried when they heard a loud noise through the earpiece on their phone.
A helicopter is a type of aircraft that can fly in the air.
