What if she says something... .(I know... .I shouldn't have my hopes up, she probably won't say nothing) but what if she will? What's the correct thing to do? Thank her? Don't break NC?... .
Thanks to all

Agreed. Someone giving you a gift (in this example, passing kind wishes) does not obligate you to reciprocate or respond. You don't give someone a gift, then expect they owe you something in return.
So, you are not obligated to respond at all. My advice, do NOT break NC! You should only break NC on your own terms, because you actually want to (should this circumstance arise).

Don't break NC. And though it's a few days early, Happy Birthday! I hope it's a wonderful day.

What I feared most happened! She sent me the following message:
“Parabens, sei que tas mal cmg, mas eu não me esquece do teu dia de anos... Espero que tudo corra bem neste dia e no resto da tua vida... bjo”
“Happy bday, I know that we’re not in peace with each other, but I don’t forget your birthday... I hope that everything works well this day and for the rest of your life... ”
This was translated from Portuguese, maybe it has lost something in translation.
This has crushed me… I have no words to explain it.
The day before it, was amazing, it was perfect! Like a dream.
My bday and one message knock me out. I cannot comprehend!
I DID NOT ANSWERED! I knew if I did it would probably open doors for more suffering!... .
Thanks for the help and the early bday wishes!
