Here's what happened...
Little Zack was riding his big wheel, Jerry was riding his bicycle. Zack likes to ride really, really fast and is constantly looking back to see where Jerry's at. Jerry likes to get up on the back of Zack's big wheel and bump him a little... Well this time, Zack made a very sharp U-turn. Jerry tried to stop... but not in time. As a result Zack got hit by Jerry's front tire. Ouch!!! Zack seemed okay, at first and Jerry and Zack were discussing the accident. But, once Zack saw his arm it was all over. He started crying. Mike (Zack's dad), Mary (our neighbor), and myself went over to see what happened. Mike took Zack inside to clean up his wound. Later on, Jerry called the patient to see how he was doing. Zack tried to talk on the phone with Jerry but was weepy. Zack said something about apologizing and we weren't quite sure what he was trying to say. The next day, Jerry went over to Zack's house to see how the patient was. Mike told Jerry that Zack didn't want to wear a long sleeve shirt to pre-school today because he wanted to show his teacher and friends what happened. When the teacher asked Zack what happened, evidently, the story went... "The old man down the street ran over me and he didn't even apologize". Well Jerry apologized and Zack accepted his apology, but Zack grounded Jerry from riding his bike for a day! Jerry and Zack are back to being buddies and are riding their big wheels and bikes together again. Zack just tells Jerry to be more careful and Jerry tells Zack not to make any quick turns! Boys will be boys... won't they.
