Gene's Journal, Entry 5

I don't think any of us were allowed near the infirmary, and then i remember that a cold hard fact came out that he shattered his leg. "Eventually a fact emerged; it was one of his legs, which had been 'shattered.' I had a conversation with the doctor who was helping Finny, if i remember, he said that he could walk again, but he wouldn't be able to play any more sports. I cried that day too. I was told the he wanted to see me first out of anyone else. He cracked a joke too i think, which enlightened me a little. We talked and talked, asking what happened and how. I told him that i purposely jounced the limb. I remember the anger he had, he wasn't angry at the fact that i did it, but he was so convinced that I didn't do it. He kept telling me to shut up and stop talking because he didn't believe that i did it. After a little bit of argueing, he wan't me to leave the room. Before i left, i think i asked him how long it will be until he can come back to Devon, he said around Thanksgiving.
