It was a day like no other. The sun was shining and the birds were singing. However, this day would prove to be quite different from any other. Cars zipped past, Bobby prepared to bolt across the busy highway. His friends tried to warn him and stop him but all he said was "I got this in the bag." Bobby had no intention of ever running across a busy highway in the middle of the day but, his unjust actions in the past had to be made up for and doing something extremely stupid was the only way people could think of for him to make up for them. What goes around comes around. Since Bobby was a little cocky, he figured that this would be mere childs play and that he would make it across the highway with no problem at all. Of course, those that knew Bobby well enough knew that he was all talk and no action so nobody truely expected him to carry through with it. So, when Bobby began to make to make a run towards the edge of the road he was immediately tackled down to the ground and knocked unconscious.
Once Bobby woke up it was quite evident he was as blind as a bat since all he could really do was stumble around and looked a little similar to a drunk old man trying to find his way on the sidewalk. "For Gods Sake! I've had it up to here with you guys!" Bobby angrily growled at the surrounding friends. "Now I can't even do the run as I'm barely able to stand up straight!" Everyone knew that Bobby was grasping at straws as he was now standing up quite fine and even walking around with no difficulties at all. But, they didn't want to hurt Bobby's feelings and just let it be.
"Cross your fingers for next time hey Bobby!" someone shouted from out behind him, he cast an angry glance back towards the group. "Haha, Just pulling your leg Bobby!" From the beginning they all knew Bobby was in over his head and they just carried on with their day, not bringing it up again.
