"Hey, I'm calling about the mazda," I heard him say with a slight Vermont accent. Mm hmm, sure Emmett. Nice try. I thought.
"Right, okay."
"What?"
"Very funny Emmett."
"You think my name's Emmett?" he asked. Nervous that he was actually fooling me, I handed the phone off to my mother. She recognized her son's voice right away and laughed and told him to stop joking. I rolled my eyes that he tricked me once more.... Until he had my Mom convinced too. Turns out it really wasn't him. It actually was some poor kid trying to buy our car. You really outdid yourself this time Emmett, you had us all fooled in a phone call you weren't even a part of. Clever.
