"Th-thanks. I'm just, I... I, I'd felt...." There's no way she can explain the pain of it, how each nerve, each sinew, each muscle, felt like they were vibrating apart. How he kicked her until her ribs cracked and kept going. How she struggled so hard she made herself bleed against the ropes. It's beyond sensing, beyond words, and she doesn't think she can live through it happening again. If not physically, then emotionally.
