Unedited, because it's changed a whole lot from what it originally was.
OK, so here's a breakdown of how the character's feel (split into three) so you know how to hear their voices.
Part 1:
Sophie- Short, clipped, wants to get off the phone
Daniel- Kinda hopeful that Sophie will speak to him; tried too hard to be normal.
Part 2:
Sophie- Defeated
Daniel- Guilty
Part 3:
Sophie- Direct, but also closed off
Daniel- Jealous
I'll asterisk the break down of the parts, so you know where/how the emotions change.

"..."
"It was a joke, Soph."
