Water damage?

I got some bad news today, cried while on my phone and my teardrops fell onto the screen (a gap between the screen and frame). Is it likely that the teardrops would cause water damage to the iPhone 12 Pro Max?

iPhone 12 Pro Max, iOS 14

iPhone and most iPod devices are equipped with Liquid Contact Indicators (LCIs) that you can see from the outside. An LCI will activate when it contacts water or a liquid containing water. The indicator's color is normally white or silver, but when it contacts water or a liquid containing water, it will turn fully red.
