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?"

She took a deep breath, trying to suppress the wave of discomfort rising in her chest. Thinking back to the treatment Sarah had given her earlier, she forced out, "Yeah... I'm here."

"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."

"Please don't panic! We've already sent someone to check it out," Sarah said calmly, stepping into the center of the room.
