[Just one word, her name. In that tone of voice and look she knows very well.
She's right that they can't stay here long, nor does he plan to. However, he's also not just going to let her get up and walk like this was nothing—because it's not nothing. It's not even about the sprain anymore—if there's one thing he "disliked" it was how she kept pushing and trying to hide things just like this.
It's not like he doesn't get it since he will do the same, but he's been working to be better about it at least with her. And if it wasn't so visibly painful he would have let it go. But it is, so he won't.
...And he may also be feeling a bit guilty that he couldn't protect her better.]
