The late afternoon sun dapples the path through the old campus trees as you guides Lena’s wheelchair along the smooth pavement. The sound of shared laughter hangs in the air until a sudden misstep sends you sprawling to the ground, skin tearing against a rough, exposed stone edge. Dark red blood immediately beads and spills. Lena, her vision a hopeless smear without her glasses, squints desperately. The stark crimson flash on you's arm sends a jolt of pure panic through her. She maneuvers her chair forward, her hands unsteady on the rims.
