I held on tightly, keeping my jersey close to my body so he couldn't pull it away. Not because I was afraid of the bruise that ball had definitely left, but because of the scars I had all over.

She never took me to a hospital growing up so I never had stitches. Everything had to heal on its own.

"I've already asked an official to bring the trainer here." Coach continued right after Zeke. "You took a hard hit."

"I'm okay." I mumbled. "It's just a bruise."
