Lucas instinctively reached out and grabbed her hand. "Don't be scared. I'm right here."

But Mia didn't respond with words. All he could hear was her uneven breathing, and her grip on his hand kept tightening.

He called out tentatively, "Mia? Are you still there?"

"I... I want to find Sarah," she said at last, unable to hold it together.

Lucas immediately picked up on her distress. "I'll take you to her now."
