Without a moment's pause, Charles ended Dahlia's call and gently clasped Evelyn's cold, trembling hand. He gave it a reassuring squeeze and murmured, "I'm not going anywhere until your mom's out of surgery. Eve, I'll do everything I can to make sure she's alright."
Charlie was gone, and there was nothing left he could do to change that or make things right. But for Josephine, he'd move heaven and earth.

The final five minutes were critical. The vehicle with more supplies was three minutes away, but the plasma they had was nearly depleted. Timing was everything.
