The Trials and Tribulations of a so-called Trouble Teen

Chapter 85 - Where On Earth Is Prime Is Time?

After how I've felt over the last few days, I've decided get out of the house early and go radio DXing in a different park than my usual park. I've switched off my location tracker, I'm completely removing myself from everyone, especially Maya, until I feel better. I might go into town later to pick up a few last minute things, though I'll have to see how the DXing goes. It's certainly a bitter morning, temperatures around five degrees with a breeze. I'm wrapped up in my coat, hat, scarf and gloves and extra fluffy jumper so I don't get too cold.

{Maya's POV}

M: [knocks door] Graham, we have a problem.

G: [opens door] What is it?

M: Evin's ran away.

G: What do you mean Evin's ran away?

M: Do you see Evin anywhere in this house?

G: No... Why would they run away?

M: That's what I'm asking you.

G: [sighs] Have you tracked them?

M: Last location was here, three hours ago. They're getting smarter as the days go by.

G: So, from what I've gathered so far is that Evin ran away around four. Is there anything missing from your room?

M: [thinking] I'm not sure. We should... probably look.

[both walk to bedroom and look around]

V: [walks in] What's going on?

M: Evin ran away.

V: What?!

M: It must've been during the night, I didn't hear them move.

V: Why would they run away?

M: Why would they tell us they're going to do something anyway?

G: They've taken their radio and their radio notebook.

V: Is Evin not on the roof?

G: We checked. How the hell is your mother supposed to take this?

V: We could... not tell her?

G: I would like to keep my teeth intact thank you.

M: Maybe the reason Evin ran away is because they're stressed with both the upcoming show and the whole mother returning to their life thing?

G: Or there's an atmospheric event that makes radio scanning incredible right now.

M: [phoning] If they don't pick up, I swear to god.

Phone: This person is unable to take your call.

M: I swear, the second we find them-

V: You swear what exactly?

M: I'm disabling the mode that lets them disable their tracker. There's gotta be at least 15 people tracking them at any time.

G: I'm going to find your grandparents to help find Evin. You two go out together and look, call Dan and Casey as well so they can go look.

M: What about Brian and Anita?

G: Call them too, we can't let Evin disappear like this anymore.

M: On it. [video calls Casey]

C: Hello?

M: Casey! We're in trouble.

C: What's wrong?

M: Evin's gone missing again.

C: Oh for fuck sake. [sighs] Right, let me go get ready and then I'll start looking. Do you know anything?
