You can't, Steam won't allow it.

You can't give a game out once you've bought it.

You have 0 chance of being able to do this unfortunately.

There is no phone number to call.
However you can create support ticket at http://support.steampowered.com

But as said above, you have 0% chance.
The games are tied to your account forever (unless account gets disabled or something).

You cant give it to your friend. Once it's installed, it's over.

You could buy another steam game to keep it company!

In all seriousness though, sadly this is not a feature of the Steam platform.
