'how it hurt' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this definition defines the answer.

'dad to upset enid' is the wordplay.
'dad' becomes 'pa' (pa can mean someone's father).
'to upset' indicates anagramming the letters.
'enid' with letters rearranged gives 'ined'.
'pa'+'ined'='PAINED'

Can you help me to learn more?
