history: There was this one time in during gym class in school where we had to play volleyball and someone on the opposing team spiked the ball in my face. The ball came crashing down and I had a bloody nose and swollen face. Everyone was laughing at me. It was horrible. There was a similar situation when I was trying to catch a softball and ran smack dab into a fence.
current: Ouch, I bet that must have hurt!
next: It did indeed. For the next few weeks I was too scared to even try and catch another ball.
