For example, Amanda just lost a battle in her life. When she met her best friend and mother, she lost it and started crying. The other characters comforted her with a hug, some talks, and some pats on the back. Instead of saying 'he reached for her shoulders, he extended his arms, she held her cheeks/face, etc', how can I get better at describing such sentimental human interactions? In short, how do I show (but not tell) the way the mother and best friend physically interact with the character - Amanda - in the example?
