Home Calling Is Not Her Calling

(I’m watching a play with my mom and suddenly her cell phone starts ringing pretty loudly. My mom starts fumbling for her mobile and starts getting nervous as people are now looking at us, and the phone keeps ringing.)

Mother: “I can’t find it. I’ve looked for it everywhere.”

Me: “Try a bit harder, then.”

Mother: “But it’s not here!”

Me: “Well, it has to be.”

Mother: “No. I must have left it at home!”
