A Bad Day


“Greg?” Luke yelled up the stairs. “Come on!”

He heard a thud then nothing.

“GREG!” Luke raced up the stairs. “Your parents are sticklers for punctuality.” He burst into Greg’s bedroom “and … Jesus Greg, what’s up?”

Greg was sitting on a table, naked, clutching his leg. The mixture of pain and anguish on his face was obvious.

“Oh Luke, I really wanted them to meet you. Especially now they accept I’m Gay. We’ll have to rearrange. Can you help me? I climbed up here to reach for something after my shower and slipped. I think I broke my ankle.

    Hmmm, I think somebody got cold feet at the last minute. I'm not buying the "accident", I think he's faking it. He's still worried about how the parents are going to act. Good job Naomi.

    I'm of the mind he did it on purpose. I'm on the wagon with Ben. That was my gut reaction.

    Well done sweets

    Ouch! I guess Greg will have to make it up to Luke after he gets a little TLC and rest. Something tells me his parents won't postpone for a little broken ankle though. Great perspective!
