His knee forgets to follow. A terrible stretch and then snap. A pop, really. More feeling than sound. Bone crushes against bone and for a moment Adam hears absolutely nothing, all the breath sucked from his lungs. All the air sucked from the world. Between one blink and the next, Adam understands everything before it really happens. The immediate, awful clarity granted to every athlete who walks onto the court and shakes hands with their worst nightmare across the net, acknowledging the gun in its hand, the cylinder spinning round and round. It won’t be me, they all think to themselves. As if after every harmless click of the hammer, their worst nightmare picks a new target. As if every time the gun lifts again, its muzzle doesn’t press against the same foolish temple until it finds a bullet in the cartridge. Adam understands even as he denies it, a fool like the rest of them. This can’t be happening to me.
