“Stop. Did you hear that?” I pulled off the protective ear-shields the mechanic—whose name was Gil, I had found out—had given me to wear as he turned off his equipment.

He’d wanted to show me the new panels and then his assistant had helpfully offered to demonstrate by using a lithium cold laser blowtorch on them. And after that, he’d insisted on showing me that even a blast grinder wouldn’t scratch them. And then of course, we had to have a simulated meteor shower in their private wind tunnel. All these tests were extremely loud. In fact, even with the ear-shields on, I was beginning to wonder if I would ever hear properly again.

But I did hear something—it sounded like someone calling my name.

Zoe? My heart started pounding and I dropped the ear-shields carelessly on the floor as I jogged back to the swinging metal door connecting to the front of the shop.

She’ll be fine, I told myself uneasily. It was just my imagination—I’m sure of it.

I wasn’t so sure when I pushed out into the front of the shop and found it empty. Zoe, who had been sitting on the organically grown stool in the corner of the room, wasn’t there anymore.

Well, maybe she just went outside for a breath of fresh air.

I went out of the shop but she was nowhere to be seen in the alleyway either.

“Zoe?” I called and then raised my voice. “Zoe?”

No answer. I felt my heart stutter in my chest.

It was just as I had feared—she was gone.
