The shattering of wood echoed through the quiet neighborhood. Martha heard it, of course. A low groan escaped her lips as she surveyed the scene: her neighbor's ancient sycamore, now a tangled heap.

She was nestled in her favorite armchair, a book lying open on her lap. The words, once a captivating story, now seemed distant. The thought of physical labor was repulsive.

The sunlight warmed her face. She closed her eyes, letting the sun soak into her skin. The comfort of the chair, the weight of the book, were far more appealing than any act of assistance. She sighed, letting the thought of action drift away.
