The situation

At a birthday party, a girl called Ruby noticed her friend Aanya going blotchy and red after eating, scratching at her neck, her voice getting wheezy and tight. Aanya has a serious nut allergy. Aanya, embarrassed and not wanting to wreck the party, kept whispering, "I'm fine, don't make it a thing." But she didn't look fine, and her breathing sounded worse by the minute.
