Brave Boy Oliver |
Last Monday, we went to one of my best friend's house. Her name is Grace and she is really tall and has red hair. We go to her house a lot. Yader, Francesca, Sezni, and I went on our horses. The other kids and my parents went in the car(how boring).
We left after them because Yader had to get all the four horses saddled up and ready to go. Naturally, when he had finished that, he had to take a shower, put gel in his hair, brush his teeth, get dressed in the cleanest clothes he could find, and last but not least put perfume on.
He says he has five perfumes and he says he needs to buy another one so that he has six. Who knows why, he is just weird like that. We all say that he is fresa because he smells good and always has to look like he is going to an interview with the president.
Fresa means strawberry, so it would be sort of like calling him a person that is sort of like a girly girl, except in a boy version.
When we finally got to their house we ate food because we were hungry and it was dinner time. We had rice and a stew type of thing. It was really good because everything that you eat at her house that they cook is good.
After eating we had a cake and that was good too. Then we went outside, listened to music and played volleyball. Once we were finished playing volleyball we started to play a game where someone had to try to take the ball off of who ever had it and the most fun part was that you could tackle. :)
We were having so much fun but Francesca and Grace got tired and went to sit on the trampoline to rest and listen to music. The rest of us kept on playing but once we got bored we played volleyball again. It was fun but we do not really know how to play good, but then - who cares.
The little kids were having races around the house on bikes. All of a sudden, Grace heard someone crying but she thought that it was Harrison. (Their next door neighbor's son.) Then she knew that that was not how he cry's and said to Francesca "Do you here someone crying?"
Once she listened to the cry she knew it was Oliver and they both went running to where they heard the crying. They found Oliver tangled in the bike and ran to get our parents.
The people that were playing volley ball stopped playing and ran to where all the commotion was going on. We thought that the horses had ran off so we went to go see. It turns out that the horses did not escape and that Oliver had his big toe stuck in between the chain and the rusty, metal, spiky thing.
This is Brien - Oliver's real brother |
He was screaming his head off and he kept on calling for Brian. Brian was busy holding the light so that they could get his foot out and see what the damage was with his toe.
Grace's guard was helping us to try get his toe out and he pulled on the chain but that made it worst and he started crying more, and harder.
My mum was holding Oliver and she could not take it any more so she told my Dad to take the flashlight so that Brian could go to him and hug him. Brian is Oliver's brother and a good one at that!
Once they finally got his toe out, the adults went inside and washed it. They told us kids to go outside and play whilst they examined his toes. He had two cuts, and at first they thought that they did not need to go to the hospital but then they really examined it and Grace's Mum, Jen, said maybe he does have to have a few stitches.
My parents told us to get the horses ready and to go straight home. They got in the car and went home.
My dad went to the hospital with Oliver's dad and dropped the rest of the family off at home. They were gone for four hours and when they got home they had medicine for him and Oliver was sitting on the couch like nothing HUGE had happened.
The thing that makes me laugh is that he is walking, running, climbing, jumping, and riding Billy's bike. If you just saw him you wouldn't think that he would have had anything happen to him. He is so funny.
What an adventful evening! Thanks Yader and Vinsons, we love you so much. You are GREAT friends to us BRIENS x Poor Ollie had to have 4 stitches and he also required a tetnus shot (this kid has NEVER had any jabs) Looks like all is healing now. It was beautiful to see the bond Brian and Oliver have. They have had to survive together through life and Brian is incredibly caring towards Oliver. It was also neat to have Oliver cuddle me - Oliver is my "wild animal". Up until now, he's really struggled to show physical affection or allow himself to receive it. He struggles to give eye contact, but since this accident, he is now trusting me more. Thanks God for being able to turn a horrible accident into something that bonds us together more x
