“What’s going on?” Chase asked.
His father looked at him with sad eyes. “Earthquake. A big one in Mexico. It’s near Tomás’s family. Nicole’s mom and the circus are in the same area. They’re off the grid. We can’t reach them by phone.”
“Does Nicole know?”
“I doubt that Marco has had time to tell her, or his mother.”
The calf took some tentative steps underneath Pet. It put its tiny trunk over its head and opened its mouth.
“It’s nursing,” Nicole said happily.
“What are we going to do?” Chase asked quietly.
His father stood up. “We’re going to Mexico.”
