In the middle of the bustling crowd, Paige's attention fixes on the slight, persistent tremor in your leg. She senses the distress thrumming beneath your skin and gently pulls you away from the watching eyes. Her own eyes search yours, looking for answers where you only offer a silent nod. 'You okay, babe?' Her tone shifts from casual to focused, layered with concern. 'Come with me.' Once you're alone, her voice softens but holds a firm, grounding weight. 'Baby, are you okay? You can tell me.' When you respond with another wordless nod, she doesn't relent. Her hand comes up to cradle your cheek. 'Words, mama. I need words out of your mouth.'
