Save the number and phone it back, unless I have reason to believe it's an emergency or of urgent importance.

A few days ago I was in very critical moment of a live game and the phone started to ring I tried to ignore it hoping it will stop but it didn’t and finally I made a blunder and I lost the game. It was my motherinlaw...
