Looks at phone, sees a number local to me, so I answered.
After a few moments he returns.
ATTENTION SPIKES UP. What could he want with me? Did I do something wrong? Lord did I forget to pay something? Questions start flying through my head. What would the detention center sheriff want with me?
I hear a pause on the line, it goes quiet for a few seconds.
Do you reside at 1234 X X Lane?
How can you tell if someone is cunning?
Long pause, OK. (Inaudible talking). Could you hang on for just a sec?
I was trying to reach out to you because we have a Mr X here, who claims you are his legal guardian. He needs you to come down and sign some forms.
Hi this is Sargent Moss from the County detention center. Is this Sean?
Is your number (xxx) xxx-xxxx??
Do what? Officer, I'm sorry I have no kids of my own, and I don't know anybody by that name.
No sir I sure don't, I live in the next city over.
Who was the actor least deserving of an Academy Award?
Yes sir it is.
HELLO
I'm sorry to bother you, my staff just told me our guy corrected his information and had a number off for his home phone. Have a good day. Hangs up.
Whew, not in trouble!! But someone named Sean with a similar number is apparently about to have a rather bad day.
Sure no problem officer.
