"How would you describe your old self?" She asks
"I-I was a butterfly, but he beat me down, snapped my wings and forced me to crawl. I was turned into a pest; I was disgusting, dirty. He would step on me, and laughed when I slowly tried to revive myself. He destroyed me; the last strand I had hanging onto the thread."
I run my fingers through my hair, "I was mindless, I was a walking corpse with no mind, a marionette. Constantly being tugged at, but I no longer cared. I was a still doll; he was my puppet master.”
I stare at her," Do you know what it feels like to be enslaved to someone you thought would be there for you? To be kicked around as if you weren't human; to be tortured to the point where you had to get surgery, to be disrespected on so many levels, to be hurt when you didn't want to, to almost be killed, to lose friends because they couldn't help you, to become a wander-less soul.”

He sat and stroking my hair with his hand said in a low voice "Not yet dear".
