The day off was a welcomed respite, a chance to catch our breaths in the midst of the ceaseless battle against the Foot Clan.

As we settled into the living room, the comforting glow of the television screen and the familiar jingles of "Space Heroes" provided a much-needed distraction.

I nestled in beside Leo, the pain in my right leg a persistent reminder of my recent encounter with Shredder. The popcorn was a small comfort, a simple pleasure amidst the chaos that seemed to define our lives.

Leo's concern hadn't waned, his watchful gaze lingering on me. His question about the pain brought forth a sharp response from me, the ache flaring up with his touch. My arms crossed defiantly, a pout gracing my features.

"Donnie, Mikey's right leg has been hurting him for a while, think you could take a look?" Leo's inquiry shifted the focus to my wounded limb. Donnie's analytical mind went to work, his keen eyes assessing the situation.

A mixture of relief and frustration washed over me as he ruled out a broken bone. I sighed inwardly, grateful for the absence of a fracture yet vexed by the persistent pain. Leo couldn't resist a teasing remark, provoking a light-hearted smack from Donnie.

The camaraderie in the room was palpable, a testament to the unbreakable bond we shared as brothers. Even amidst my discomfort, their presence provided solace and strength.

With Donnie's assurance that it wasn't a serious injury, I couldn't help but feel a surge of gratitude for the family that stood by my side, ready to face whatever challenges awaited us.
