BoJamesDuke Posted August 18, 2007 Report Share Posted August 18, 2007 Bo whistled as he went about his chores, scaring the chickens as he always did when he walked past and giving Maudine a friendly scratch behind the ears. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaisyMaeDuke Posted August 18, 2007 Author Report Share Posted August 18, 2007 Luke nodded grimacing a little. "Hurt my foot is all, limping out to the bench sitting down and struggling tight-lipped to remove his boot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaisyMaeDuke Posted August 18, 2007 Author Report Share Posted August 18, 2007 Luke hissed as he struggled with the boot his foot already swollen enough to prevent the boot coming off easily. Finally he bit his lip and yanked off the boot, it flying across the barn. Slowly he removed his sock, his face palinga little at the large bruise already darkening his foot.

DaisyMaeDuke Posted August 18, 2007 Author Report Share Posted August 18, 2007 Luke said nothing to that as he tried to walk beside him, more hopping then anything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BoJamesDuke Posted August 18, 2007 Report Share Posted August 18, 2007 Bo eventually got him inside and called out for his Uncle as he lowered Luke onto the couch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaisyMaeDuke Posted August 18, 2007 Author Report Share Posted August 18, 2007 Luke sat gently on the couch biting his lip as he looked at the swollen foot. The last thing he wanted was to worry the family or spend money they didn't have. He had already done that by bringing Jaime to live with them.

DaisyMaeDuke Posted August 18, 2007 Author Report Share Posted August 18, 2007 Luke sat, his face a little pale as he tried to move his foot. Jesse came out of the room mumbling, "man can't even take a nap in his own house...." He looked up seeing Bo rantically going through the freezer. "What in tarnation is going on boy?"

BoJamesDuke Posted August 18, 2007 Report Share Posted August 18, 2007 Bo jumped and hit his head on the top of the freezer as Jesse called to him, pulling his head out along with several handfuls of ice, dumping it in the towel on the table and wrapping it up."Maudine stood on Luke's foot an' now it's swellin' up to the size of a basketball..."

DaisyMaeDuke Posted August 18, 2007 Author Report Share Posted August 18, 2007 "Good Lord...well get that ice to it and let's take a look."

BoJamesDuke Posted August 18, 2007 Report Share Posted August 18, 2007 Bo swallowed, knowing Jesse was eceptionally cranky because he had been woken from his nap. He knelt carefully down next to Luke and pressed the ice filled towel to the swelling foot as gently as he could. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
