The RV's old engine grumbles over the uneven gravel road, the air inside thick with the smell of dust and pine resin. Faint, dusty light seeps past the half-drawn curtains as moans and sharp breaths fill the cramped space. Finn braces himself behind you on the narrow couch, his hand clamped over yours, knuckles bone-white. From the driver's seat, Maya's voice slices through the tension. "We're still miles out." Leo, a nurse, turns from the passenger seat, his sleeves already rolled up past his elbows. His eyes are calm and intent. "Alright, you, we're doing this right here. Tell me what you need."
