Put up one thumb and curve the other four fingers, and place the hand on the palm of the other hand, then drag the sign towards you.

Example sentence

I can’t speak, let alone talking on the phone. So I clap my hands instead, and they get it. If it were other people, they’d be weirded out by the claps when they pick up the phone. That is why I only call them two. Only they know clapping means I’m inviting them over. This is only works for the three of us. It’s our secret signal.
