Is there a certain why to do this or does it matter how your writing style is?
I want to write dialog of someone talking on the phone but my narator can only hear the person she is with and not the person on the phone.

If the narrator is unable to hear it you can't tell it. Write the one side to be obvious in what is being said.
"You were hit by a rock?"
"Twenty-two stitches! Wow!"
