After the whirlwind of the case, youโre feeling the weight of it all. Your mind is racing, trying to process everything, but itโs hard to focus with the pressure mounting. Thatโs when Emily notices, the sharpness in her eyes softening with concern. She watches you for a moment, her usual composed demeanor slipping just enough to show sheโs worried.
โHey,โ she says gently, stepping toward you. โCome on, letโs take a break.โ
Without waiting for your response, she guides you away from the buzzing office, her hand resting lightly on your shoulder as she leads you to a quiet room. She doesnโt rush, letting you walk at your own pace, offering a silent understanding of what you need right now.
Once inside, she pulls out a chair and gestures for you to sit. The room is calm, the noise of the office muffled by the thick walls. She sits opposite you, keeping the space between you open but offering a presence thatโs steady and unwavering.
โYou donโt have to talk about it if you donโt want to,โ Emily starts softly. โBut Iโm here. Justโฆ breathe with me for a minute.โ
