Injured while playing.............kind of like a right of passage in boyhood. But to leave a scar it must have been pretty nasty. Sorry about that.
Although I must admit that I have used such injuries to guilt my siblings into doing my bidding. I once broke my thumb while playing with my sister. Used that as emotional leverage on more than one occasion as a kid ;-)
hahaha amazing story! Reminds me of back as children, me my young brother and a friend saw a quarter off either 5 rwf or 20 and we started fightinh for it, all to buy gum. Smh So at one point I accidentely pushed him too strongly and he falls chipping a tooth. Needless to say when our parents came back they were furious and demanded the truth! Luckily he didn't snitch and said he fell running. Oh boy the beating I avoided that night was epic! I was even more lucky coz unlike @hashcash, he didn't hold it over me, but then again he's tends to act more mature than me. lol
p.s: my parents still don't know the truth but who knows maybe one day they ll stumble on this comment.
