"Hi Mr. Diffy. Remember me, Kyle Speckle? I've been on a twelve-mile hike up here at military school and, boy, are my dogs tired. Anyways, I wanted to ask you where you heard the Petunia Smuck likes me a lot. She sure doesn't show it and Kristy hasn't even looked at me twice since we were over at your house. Give me a call back. 555-8765. Just leave a message for Cadet Speckle. I was in Pickford again last week and I was about to ask Mrs. Diffy and your kids, but I looked the other way at a cute girl and when I turned to ask, everyone had vanished. Weird, huh? When you see them again, tell 'em 'hi' for me. Okay?
