[Hearing the coffee comment makes Richard draw the conclusion that they may know one another. What causes that to get second guessed is, once he's close enough, witnessing the boy whisper something in a more serious tone. Hardly the tone of voice used if this might be all coffee related and... had he just caught the word 'pulse'?
No, assuming it may be network related would foolish when the only detail known is the fact the girl looks ill. That whisper could have been misheard, as well. For now, aiding her takes priority. Whatever that aiding may entail (whether it be driving her to the hospital or to the clinic) time will tell. Richard speaks as soon as he's close enough.]
Do you require any help?
[Obviously, but the question still beats asking ARE YOU OKAY. Although, she really doesn't look good. At all.]
