"I know you have difficulty speaking. You just have to make some other sounds, and I will understand."

I nodded, indicating that I already knew.

"This…….. does it hurt? ”

"It hurts."

"here? ”

He stretched out his hand and pressed it around but not directly on my stomach.

"It doesn't hurt."

"It doesn't hurt here? ”

"Yes, it doesn't hurt."

"Ok, I see."

Charlie pushed the door open and came in.
