When They Realized What Happened
My younger sister and I were playing nighttime hide and seek at my cousins’ house. It was my turn to seek, so my sister and cousins went off to hide. I found my youngest cousin first, then shortly after found my sister hiding on a windowsill behind a closed curtain.
She hopped down and ended up in a pile of tears on the floor. She explained that she had hit the radiator as she had jumped. Once she’d calmed down, she came back to resume the game. But instead of hiding again, it went wrong again. I took her down to my mom, who was now inspecting a spot of blood on her.
That’s when we finally realized what had happened. It turned out my sister had ripped a 4 cm hole in her butt cheek as she’d hit the corner of the radiator on the way down. It was gruesome. My aunt got my sober uncle to drive her to a hospital. She stitched my sister together and all was fine. Isobeleh
