"Good morning, my lovely Z. Jack calling, as promised, to tell you the bakery was divine, and to discover when I might take you there. Or, if the weather ever clears up, perhaps we could take our danish and coffee and head down to the beach?
Anyway, I'm truly sorry I missed you, but hearing your lovely voice on the phone was almost enough to make up for it. Though I have to ask, none of you? Are there more than one?"

"Hey Z, it's Jack. Long time no speak. I was just talking to Parker, you're name came up, and I suddenly realised I'd not had the pleasure of your company for what seems like an eternity. Give me a call, let me know you're around, and if you'll let me take you out again?"
"Z, this is Thursday Next. I'm calling to see if you're okay after today's class. If it was something to do with the subject matter, please let me know. I'm also here if you want to talk about anything in confidence."
"Professor Next?" Z asked after she grabbed the phone. "I'm fine, really, don't worry about me." She was lying, of course, but pretty convincingly. "It was just a momentary thing."
