Lucy's Day Out (iii)

Rosse glanced at her phone to check the time and said, "Melinda and Rina did mention they had missed the bus, so... there's a possibility that they could get on this bus at the next stop."

Assuming they have not yet gotten on the other bus.

"What about Leah? She hasn't seen or responded to any of my messages since this morning. She hasn't come online either, even in the group chat."

"Same. Should I call her?" Rosse glanced back and forth at Suzan and Lucy, seemingly wanting their confirmation.

"Leave it. She has told us not to call her, so we should respect that. Melinda might know something since she is the leader of our friend circle."

"True."

The bus stopped at the next station and a few passengers got in. Since Lucy, Suzan, and Rosse were busy talking with each other, they couldn't see out of the window to check if Melinda and Rina were there.

They fixed their gaze at the bus' entrance and patiently waited to see three familiar faces walking towards them.
