Cell service

Check the phone. EMERGENCY. No Digicel today, I guess. Gotta call them, gotta pass on the message. Check the phone. EMERGENCY. Maybe try a text? Type it out. Press send. Sim 2. Digicel. Wait. Wait. Wait. Message not sent, saved to outbox. Darn it.  Put down phone. Read the book. Check the phone. EMERGENCY. Gotta pass on the message. Go to outbox. Press send. Sim 1. TVL. Message sent, saved in sent messages. That’s one way. Put down phone. Read book. Check the phone. Digicel. Signal! Try a call. Wait. Wait. Wait. Call cannot connect. Grumble. Put down phone. Read book. Check the phone. Digicel, and a bar! Try a call. Wait. Wait. Call forwarding on! Straight to voicemail. Darn. Try a different number. Wait. Wait. Call forwarding on! Straight to voicemail. Give up. Put down phone. Read book. Worry. Read book. Worry. Check phone. EMERGENCY. Put down phone. Read book. Worry. Repeat. Look up. Friends! No call needed.

  1. Ha! If there's a real emergency, smoke signals will have to do.
