Heidi Posneen rolled over in bed, reaching through the dark for the telephone.
I was getting a phone call, probably around midnight.
She lifted the receiver to her ear and said a tentative hello, the word tinged by her disappearance.
Distinct german accent.
Voice on the phone said that he wanted to talk to me.
The voice belonged to a man.
He introduced himself and said he was conducting a survey.
He wanted to ask her a few questions, like, what kind of lingerie do you wear?
And are you as good in bed as everyone says?
I said, who are you?
What's going on?
What do you want?
And he hung up.
Heidi's husband, John Pozny, stirred next to.
Her, and John said, who was that?
I don't know.
Some guy wants to meet me.
And he says, oh, some idiot, because I used to get a lot of those phone calls, especially when you work in the bar, you know, people calling you and breathing heavy.
