Felix - velvet

I drop my bag on my ground and hop on my bed as I pull my phone out so I can call Maria:

"Hey," I say.

"Hey," she distrotaly says so desperately and shaky.

"Are you okay?"

"Yeah, who are you guys?"

"I'm fine--we're all fine but I'm worried about you!"

"I got out of jail."

"Really?! How?"

"I got proven innocent."

"I'm so glad--"

"But--I-I.."

The phone beeps and I try calling her back, "Sorry this user's not available." the motioned voice on the other line states followed by a buzzing sound.

I try three more times but the same robotic voice repeats on the other end. I wonder if she's okay. I wonder if she'll get us back. I wonder...

...but I can only wonder.
