Where are you?

"Then the Lord God called to Adam and said to him, "Where are you?"
So he said, "I heard Your voice in the garden, and I was afraid because I was naked; and I hid myself."
Genesis 3:9-10.

You know, despite all that Adam said in response to God's question in Genesis 3:9, he never really answered the question. God called to him and asked "where are you?" - a seemingly simple question designed to ascertain the present location of the person being asked, right? Listen to Adam's response?
"I heard Your voice in the garden, and I was afraid because I was naked; and I hid myself."
Think about it, in what way is this the answer to "where are you"?
