"Where is my husband?" Scarlet asked Ian, who was standing closest to her. They were boarding the space ship, setting out to the Grey star.
The program had been changed from a minor hourly visit to a planned night stay at the Eco resort because the mecha warriors had to inspect a potential problem area. No details had been given to Scarlet other than that.
Ian seemed unsure, when he looked at her. "I don't really know."
"You don't know the whereabouts of your friend? Somehow I find that hard to believe."
Their little group was very close, they were like different parts of one body. It was often difficult to see one of them on their own unless they were in their individual homes.
She gave Ian a look that was probing, and pushed her face forward slightly. She had this strong feeling that Esong was avoiding her.
He had not slept at home the previous night and all her texts to him were answered in the most minimal way possible.
