“Some of the stories came with tips. Humanize yourself to your captor. Hold your keys between your fingers and use them as a weapon. Jab them in his eyes. Hit him in the nose. Kick him in the nuts. Scream. Don’t scream. Surprise him. Don’t surprise him.
What the stories never said: at the end of the day if a man wants to kill you, he kills you. It’s not on you to convince him not to.”
