A panic attack?!

Kevin burst into the kitchen to fetch a paper bag. The event which just unfolded in front of him left him off guard. Rewinding the last five minutes, his mind started recapitulating, trying to make sense of what was happening.

It was hardly an hour since Kevin had fallen asleep when he felt Mia squirming in his arms. Letting out a sigh, he reverted his hands, assuming she might be wanting space. However, all of a sudden, she began writhing.

Kevin tried to open his eyes but failed. On the other hand, the writhing picked up pace. His mind understood the situation in a flash and sent the distress signal to his body, which, without any further delay, poured adrenaline into his veins. With eyes still closed, he picked himself up and forcefully blinked to push back the sleep.
