The setting is the local park. The time is roughly 5:30 in the evening, and the date is yesterday.
I am cutting through what parts of the park are open on my way to the library. While passing under a tree, I hear a loud cracking sound and feel something hitting my shoulders.
For a moment, I am panicking, wondering what hit me and worrying about damage. When I look at the ground, things get odd, as what I find (a twig) seems far too small to be what hit. At this point, I am told by someone behind me to look to my left.
As I do so, I see a squirrel, running away from me and towards another tree. It becomes all too obvious what it was that hit me.
No damage came to me, and the squirrel seems to have come out of it alright, but one question is left:
How is it that the one time a squirrel falls from a tree when I’m nearby, it manages to land on me?
