Grace: What happened to you?!
Paul: I had a little accident at the game today.
Grace: Little accident?! You’re limping and obviously in pain!
Paul: I just pulled a muscle in my back and aggravated my runner’s knee, that’s all. It’s nothing to worry about.
Grace: And you’re still recovering from the sprained ankle, concussion, and neck strain from three weeks ago. Don’t you think you should sit out of the game for the next few weeks?
