Barclay was right. The family doctor did show up quickly. Just as Rose finished cooking pasta, before Moira could even sit down to eat, the doctor was already at the door. Hearing the doorbell, Rose dashed to answer it, afraid Moira might make a move. "Mrs. Covington, I'll get it, you stay put," she said, shutting off the stove before heading out.

Jacob slipped on gloves. "Mrs. Covington, mind straightening out your leg for me?"

Moira did as she was told.

After a thorough examination, he confirmed it wasn't a bone injury, just a soft tissue bruise. Hurt like hell, sure, but a bit of bruise spray would ease the pain in a day or two. Jacob grabbed some spray, no pills or anything.
