[Well. There's a lot of places to go from there, but some things are too painful to talk about. Even with someone you've grown to trust. But a condensed version of the truth should be fine, Tuuri reasons, and she wants someone to know. That way, if anything ever happens to her, the explanation of 'why' will be out there already.]
We had to grow up really fast. Me, my brother, and my cousin. So I guess part of having to stop being a kid all of a sudden is that you get mature really fast too. And my brother and cousin aren't the best at their emotions, so I got good at seeing what they really mean when they talk. It's a handy skill, now that I think about it.
[That doesn't quite explain her reaction at trial though, so.]
