The red haired woman came and spoke to her.
"You are a far braver soul than I am to give your name when thugs are involved. Thankfully his friends weren't here."
Emily hadn't even thought of that. Her focus had been on helping. Even though the man had wanted to kill the girl, she didn't want him to die either. She hadn't thought of the fact that she may have put her own life in danger.
"They asked me for my name - the emergency workers. I just wasn't thinking...excuse me..."
Emily caught Asha in the side of her vision and turned to face her.
The other woman was clearly upset. She had put her coat on. The poor girl must have been shaken by what had happened. Emily felt compassion for her. The situation had been scary, but it was over. Emily wanted to help her.
Emily looked at Asha, took a deep breath and spoke. "Are you ok?"
Emily placed her hand reassuringly on Asha's and gave her an encouraging smile. "It will be okay."
Emily had dealt with this with her sisters - recently too. It was important for her to be stable, so she kept herself calm and met her gaze. "It will be okay"
she repeated.
