“Okay, I think you should take a break,” I urge, but before he can respond, his foot catches on the uneven wooden floor.
“Damn it!” he curses, stumbling forward. I instinctively move to catch him, but his weight is too much for my frail body. We tumble to the floor, Joe landing on top of me with a painful thud.
