The ground outside was slick from the rain, which suggested that Colbys injury might have resulted from this Little troublemakers antics.


    As expected, when pressed, the little girl stuck out her tongue.


    Colby got hurt because he tried to protect me.


    Upon further questioning, Lucinda discovered that after the rain, Destinee had been chasing dragonflies and had identally slipped.


    Colby had shielded her with his body, preventing her fall.


    The event unfolded so quickly that neither Sonny nor Aldric could intervene before Colby was injured.


    Yet, Sonny assumed full responsibility for the mishap.


    Before Lucinda could respond, he apologized profusely, Im sorry, Lucinda.
