Dennis immediately released me and focused on her, his movements smooth and natural as he lifted her up and cradled her in his arms.

I watched him go from comforting me to distracting Amie in a matter of seconds.

Cute giggles spilled out of her as she squirmed in his arms.

"Yes?" She looked up at him.

"You see," he started slowly, "I need you to understand that everyone needs to be very strong, hmm?"

She nodded, listening to him raptly, her little face serious as she absorbed his words.
