As all this happens, on the hall outside of the office door, Lucas is casually following/chasing after Milx, his pet rat.

*talking loudly*
[color=fff79a]MILX, COME BACK HERE! FOR THE MILIONTH TIME, DON'T WANDER AROUND WITHOUT ME, IT MIGHT BE DANGEROUS, PLEEEASE![/color]

Passing by Dr. Whitneys office and hearing the crying, Lucas stops and listens for a second, then gently knocks on the door.

*knock knock knock*
[color=fff79a]Uhm, doctor...uhm...M-Miss Lily? Is everything ok?? Why are you crying?[/color] ...then waits patiently for a reply/reaction
