That Friday, we had volleyball class. Halfway through class, it started to worry. Everyone ran toward the gym entrance. They laughed and screamed while covering their heads. Before Before I even made it off the court, my kneecap slipped out of place. I fell hard.
When the bone slid back, the pain hit its peak. I lay on the wet court, unable to sit up. Then a person stopped beside me. I grabbed one pant leg without thinking.
I can't stand. Can you help me? No. Maybe if you lost weight, you wouldn't fall so hard.
I was soaked through Lucas did not look at me He walked past me rain kept running into my mouth, but my throat still felt dry I could only try to push myself up near the gym entrance. I heard people talking She doesn't look like she's faking it should we help her you like her you go
It took me almost 10 minutes to sit up. I still could not stand so I sat quietly in the I forced myself to think about what grandma might make for dinner Otherwise the pain in my knee and the eyes behind me would break me in the end
