"Jesus," Michelle says softly, the amount of time alone difficult to fathom. Howard had told her one year, maybe two, and though she knows now that he never intended to let her go, that he would always have deemed it unsafe in order to keep her there with him, there's a difference between that awareness and actually living it. All things considered, she didn't lose too much of her life. With everything that happened, it's hard to consider herself lucky, but in some ways, she knows she was. "She shouldn't have blamed you for not wanting to risk her life. It's a lot, but... What else could you do?"
