Calm down. Calm down. Calm down. Calm down. Calm down. Get your pills. Get your pills! "I-need... I need my meds." Where were they? He could already feel his heart starting to beat faster. His breathing was slowly growing erratic, "W-where are my meds? I-I can't find them!" Focus, focus, focus. Ground yourself. Three objects... some books. A chair. A window. Four clothing. My blue shirt. Nike sneakers. Kei latched onto Stephen's... no, Teff's shoulders for support as he shut his eyes, waiting for the medicine to take effect and waiting for her voice to leave her head. He breathed in and out. Calming breaths. Calm breaths. "What's around us, Kei? Come on, talk to me." He turned his head to look behind him and saw her shadow. "I miss you."
