  Damian's voice sounded full of energy, "Yeah! Uma finally agrees to give me some days off, and I'm in town now! I don't know anyone in Skagen City, so I thought to myself, why not give you a call and ask you out for dinner?"

  "Oh, OK. I totally understand." Damian's voice sounded disappointed. He wasn't the kind of person who was able to conceal his true feelings. "It's OK. I feel ashamed for calling you. What's on my mind? Calling you just like this. I'm so sorry. I'm hanging up right now..."
