Hallow Dear,
I believe when you say semen in the hand, you mean semen stained hand. By this he has not instilled some amount of semen in the vagina. Just touching vagina from outside the vagina should not be an issue of threat of pregnancy.
To cause pregnancy, semen has to be injected inside the vagina or even at the introits. Then sperms in the semen can swim towards the egg through the uterus and tubes. I feel he should not be concerned about pregnancy.
Please tell her also to get rid of the stress as stress itself can delay the menses. Let her wait expectantly for the menses to appear on time. If at all the menses are delayed, then she may think of performing pregnancy test on urine 8-10 days after the missed period; done earlier, these tests may report false negative results. Alternatively, she may opt for Beta hCG test which can give reliable results even few days before missed period.
If the pregnancy test reports positive, she can terminate the pregnancy by medicines.
However, I feel, this should not happen and she will get her menses in time.

Hello dear
I understand your concern
Chance of pregnancy is less because:
You have did sex in the safe period of the cycle.
You have not did penetrative sexual intercourse.
To become pregnant, full penetrative intercourse is required in the fertile phase of the period (10th to 20th day).
Use safe sex practice in future like condoms and I pill to prevent the pregnancy.
Hope this may help you
