Bus XXXVI

Scott is alone; he dials a number on his mobile phone.

Scott: Hi, this is Scott Buckley. Can I talk to my mum again, please? Just quickly? Thanks.

Pause

Scott: Hi, Mum. Yeah, fine. Just realised I forgot to ask about the earmuffs.

Pause

Scott: Yeah, I reckon they muffle it sometimes anyway

Pause

Scott: Cotton wool would work, I guess

Pause

Scott: Nah, just use tissues for that

Pause

Scott: Don’t worry about it. Take as long as you need.

Pause

Scott: Thanks. Speak soon, Mum. I love you.

Scott puts phone in his pocket, looks out of the window, and sighs
