The sound was unmistakable.
A sharp, sudden pop followed by a yelp of pain and down he went. His siblings stopped, turned around and
watched to see if he would get up. His left
foot had landed in one of the many gopher holes dotting the pasture they were
playing tag in, sending him sprawling and twisting his leg.
He groaned as the pain intensified when he tried to turn
over. His sisters knelt down beside him
to reassure him while his brother ran to get help. It was his bad luck to break his leg just
before summer vacation.
