"Marcos." What's left of her voice is flooded with relief and she steps in without hesitation once he steps aside, reaching for his hand and using it to pull him to her, wrapping her arms around him once he's close enough. Which is answer enough to his question, but she eventually answers anyway.

"I'm all right." Safe, anyway, which feels like a lot some days. "I just needed to see you."
