“You have 5 new messages. First message:
“Evie, it's Libby. I wanted to see if you wanted to get some ice cream this Saturday- I found a nice place over here. Amelie wants to see Anthony- Devin can keep an eye on them both if you want to bring him along. Hope you're well; miss you lots. Call back, okay?”
Evie smiled. Libby was her dearest friend- they had first met back in middle school, and were inseparable until a few years ago despite Libby's marriage and child- Amelie was now four- when Libby's job transferred her out of town two hours away. She'd have to make sure to call back- she hadn't been to see Libby in a couple of weeks.
“Next message:
“Are you home yet, Evie?” It was Bailey. “Call when you get the chance.” From the terseness, there was probably another problem. She'd have to get back to him after her tea.
“Next message:
“Evie? Evie? It's spreading faster- I need to talk to you soon to sort everything out. I'm getting worried. Call, please.

“You're not home yet? I really need your help here. We're going to need another isolation room, and I can't- Call.
“Next message:
