"if someone's ever laid a hand on this woman... if someone's ever made her afraid to touch, of comfort, of asking for help, i'll fucking end them. i've seen what trauma does. i've lived in a house built out of it. i've loved people splintered by it. and now, watching her - this proud, guarded, stubborn woman - completely undone by something i can't fix... it guts me. so, i do the only thing i can. i stay."

MY HEART.
