Josh was running home fairly fast and was going around a corner he had traversed on many occasions. He wasn't wearing his coat because he lost it recently and still didn't have enough to get another. He was carrying the food in a bag that his mother had asked him to get. As he was just about to get around the corner his foot hit the ice and he knew he was in trouble as there was no traction under his shoe.
He quickly tossed the groceries into a soft pile of snow as he slid onto his side. The ground hit him pretty hard all the same and he lay panting in the cold of the winter. His own breathe clouded his vision. He was freezing and began to get up. When he finally got to his feet he grabbed the groceries and began to walk back and then he noticed his right ankle.
Apparently the numbing sensation was enough to temporarily disguise the fact that he had sprained his ankle. "Just great..." Josh muttered to himself. Not only was he freezing out here but he had been temporarily disabled. "UGH......" he sighed as he rolled his eyes and began to try and limp home. It didn't go very well and Josh started to look around for someone who might help out.
This was one of the few times Josh was upset with himself for not making friends. He didn't really know anyone unless he had too and sometimes not even then. Oh, sure, think myself into depression again... Calm down! he began directing himself through mental tasks to keep himself from spiraling into one of his depressed states.
