Evelyn didn't believe in free lunches. She probed cautiously, wondering what Chris might want from her.
Chris merely glanced at her and caught on to her reservations.
He tapped her forehead lightly with his finger and smiled. "Don't overthink it."
Evelyn's eyes sparkled. She momentarily reverted to the carefree girl she once was.
On the rooftop of the hospital, the ground was strewn with debris. Evelyn lost her balance and stumbled over a stone.
Instinctively, she grabbed onto Chris' trench coat. The man was jolted and leaned forward, almost falling onto her. Evelyn shut her eyes, bracing for impact.
Instead of pain, she felt a pair of arms encircle her waist. Almost instinctively, she clung to his neck.
Within an instant, she was steady on her feet, her arms still around him.
