((sorry if I assumed too much with body language. It just seems natural to me that if someone gets near and asks that question they're touching the person's arm and looking at their face))

Suede was still too tired and out of breath to even want to see if he could answer with a single syllable. So he shook his head. When she had reached for his arm he felt it and knew she was alive. But had the others in the caravan been so lucky? Some tears reached his eyes as the thought about it. A coward he had been to save her and leave them to fate like that. He still didn't speak but looked back trying to see the caravan uphill. Failing that Suede stood still weak, in the knees, like a meerkat.
