You simply stop typing the previous scene, hit Enter/Return once or twice, and have the character go check up on what the other person is doing. Or, you can simply write them traveling to go see the other character.

The first is called a scene break, the second is called a transition.

Too often we crave the extraordinary in life, without even learning how to cherish the ordinary first. Friend, I promise you this: if you can learn to take joy in the simple mundane things in life, the extraordinary will take care of itself, it'll be on its way, hurrying towards you. But if you skip the first part, it'll ever evade you.
