"It's okay. Bonny's fine. The appointment can wait. Stay here."
Kate's... mostly trying not to think about why Magnus is puking early in the morning, kneeling on the floor. She's trying not to think about her puking at all (because, yeah, she doesn't have a quick gag reflex but watching someone else yark always does it for her), when she comes back out into the main office.
She pastes a well-practiced smile on her face. "Lilo, Magnus and I need a few minutes. If Bonny needs to go out, you take her out and stay within ten steps of the clinic." She also doesn't wait for an answer because Lilo will either do what Kate asks or she won't and no amount of getting agreement is going to change it. Hopefully, she won't run off because Kate's not looking forward to explaining to anyone how she "lost" the dog and the kid she's supposed to be raising.
When she returns to the treatment room, it's with a glass of water, a damp cool towel, and a dry one. "Here," she says as she kneels again and tries not to breathe the fumes from the vomit.
