"Zahra, I am certain that you are perfectly capable of dialing numbers by yourself," he said in Ancient Egyptian, opening one eye to watch her, "I can hardly keep myself here, let alone go and attempt to push buttons for you."
He lifted his head and motioned back at the door, "Numbers of strong arms are in the third cabinet to the left, top drawer. Though it is Wednesday... my stairs may be there. If they are then try the next one to the left. They should be there."
As the phone rang he looked up very suddenly, both eyes open. He stared at it, then looked at Zahra, "Answer it, woman!" he roared, baring his teeth at her.

"Dial these numbers, pick up the phone, touch things for me, blah blah blah, Jeun," Zahra said, plunking herself down in the chair behind the desk. "It's always do this do that, and I am so sick of it that if I didn't think vomiting was disgusting and mortal, I would do it. Anyways, I don't want to answer the phone. It's just going to be that lady calling about where's her cake and I'm going to have to sit here and listen to it."
She thought for a moment, and then smiled. "Oh wait, that's me. Okay...what's the button again." She searched around, and pressed the button triumphantly.
"Hello there. You have reached Jeun's Bookstore. If you would like to speak to Jeun, press one. If you would like to speak to Zahra, press two. If you would like to press three, press three. If you would like this message to be repeated, press four."
"What the hell, Zahra or whatever your name is. Just give me to Jeun, I don't want to talk to you."
"I'm sorry, Jeun is temporarily unavailable due to mean people not getting his statue for him." At this, Zahra winked at Jeun, and then returned back to the phone. "He can't touch anything because he's all lion-y."
"Look, you prissy cat. I'm calling to say that I will do this, but it is going to cost a considerable amount more than you thought, because I can't just poof in and out of existence. Just, keep Jeun there. I'm coming over."
