Hysterical Screaming On The Line
I didn’t even get a chance to say hello properly. My mother-in-law’s voice blasted through the earpiece at a deafening volume.
She screamed hysterically, her words tumbling over each other in a chaotic mess. She kept repeating that there had been a terrible mistake with the surprise party.
I pulled the phone away from my ear slightly to save my hearing. The panic in her voice was sharp and genuine.
