"No needles, no hospital trip. I'll pop a pill," Nancy said, pulling her hand away and reaching into the drawer for a capsule, about to grab a glass of water.

Judson immediately grabbed her hand. "This water's too cold. Let me get you some warm water from the kitchen."

With those words, he dashed into the kitchen and returned within seconds, holding a glass, his face etched with concern.

"Babe, take your medicine. I'll watch you," he said, his demeanor resembling a child who'd done something wrong.

Nancy wasn't used to this kind of attention. Quickly, she downed her water and swallowed the medicine, giving a small cough to show Judson she'd taken it, all while noticing the worry still etched on his face. "Medicine's down. Now, let's get you to the police station," she said, trying to lighten the mood.
