"Hi. It's Angela. I thought about it, and lunch today just doesn't seem like a good idea. I'm trying to take a break from guys, and I know you and Marty already have problems, and phopebe is my friend, and I'm getting ready for the big, um, party on Friday. So ... sorry. See you around."
At some point in the very early morning, the following voicemail appears on your phone. It's your choice as to when you actually retrieve the message.
"My dear, this is Aziraphale. I...am afraid I've just discovered that I'll be leaving town. Quite immediately in fact. By Friday night. I didn't want to go without saying how very much I've enjoyed knowing you, and that I'm going to miss you."
[pause]
"Do take good care of yourself, and be well. Perhaps someday we'll meet again."
Pretty sure that he wouldn't pick up the phone if she called his other number, Phoebe dialed Cole's voicemail.
"Cole...it's me. I'm calling to apologize for this morning. It was uncalled for and way out of line. I don't know what got in to me this morning, but you didn't deserve it. I'm sorry."
Veronica exhaled a deep breath before responding. "I just found out that I have to testify tomorrow in a trial back home. Is there any way you could take me there and bring me back in the evening?"
"Trial?" Bel asked. "Sure, I can do that, no problem. I'm all done with classes and shimmering across the continent between dimensions doesn't take me long at all."
"I know. But I can't not show up. My testimony can help get him thrown in prison forever. Besides, I never told my dad about any of that stuff. I have to do this."
