On the bus

I was getting on the bus today to go to my part time job and before I could sit the bus started to move and I lost my balance. My body shifted awkwardly and my broken ankle slammed against the metal part of the seat.

Cast or no cast my body tensed. I shifted to regain my balance but I could feel pain from my broken ankle, my face was twisted, wincing and trying to resist the pain.

“Sorry” I heard driver yell. Yeah right.

I sat and tried to keep my cast higher up to release the pain. I sat there with my eyes partly closed and I realised that the next few months were going to be long at time.

Bye for now
