Summary
“What is this type of injury called?”
“An open kneecap fracture—” Tommy heaved through the pain.
“The signs?”
Tommy was dying. He was dying. He let out another scream as Dream bent his leg back further.
“Swelling, immobility in the leg, bone protruding from the skin, deformed patella—” He could feel the way that his kneecap was somehow shifting further up. A stupid mistake; he should have just said it. With one final push, Tommy felt his leg harshly hit the stone of the floor.
“Say it.”
“I am misery.”

Summary
Uncle Phil stands in front of Tommy with an awkward smile plastered to his face. His hair is longer than Tommy remembers, pulled back in a short ponytail. There is several days worth of stubble covering his chin, and his eyes look tired. Not the sort of tired that someone acquires from days without sleep, but a deeper tiredness. A weariness of the soul.
Phil was wearing green scrubs as if he'd come to pick up Tommy directly after work. He drops Tommy's luggage down at his side before taking a good look at the boy.
Phil looks Tommy up and down like adults often do when they haven't seen a kid for years. His uncle recycles the same cheesy line everyone uses, “Wow, you've gotten so big, Toms. You're almost as tall as me.”
The old nickname sounds strange coming out of his uncle's mouth. The name belongs to a different time, a different decade. Using it now just feels… contrived.
OR
Tommy is sent to live with his relatives over summer break while his mom goes through rehab.
