"If... If you do not mind, m'seiur. I've never seen a physician before-- I fear what they will say when they have a look at me. It's the man-- the man my father works for, did this. He's a brute, knows what to do to get what he wants. He'll take the money, but it would stop him for a time, perhaps. He goes after my family through me. It's all I can do, to help them."
Leaning forward, she coughed into the crook of her arm, flinching with an imagined pain in her chest.
