Hobson's Choice - an excerpt

***EVEN HAPPIER NEWS** (8th October 2019) @The_Bookshop have published their Summer Anthology 2019 - https://www.wattpad.com/story/197562722-the-bookshop-summer-anthology-2019 - and there I am, 2nd from the bottom of their list.
*** HAPPY NEWS** (7th Oct, 2019)
Look... my excerpt has been chosen as one of the 'favourites' by The_Bookshop and will appear in their Summer Anthology. SO thrilled... and breathless... and shocked... and, and...
Here is an edited Chapter Four, to enter a Wattpad competition by The_Bookshop.
The challenge is to write a less than 2000 word story on the issue of Pain - as depicted by five different photo and description prompts.
I have chosen Pic. #3 No Pain, No Gain - and submitting this chapter, which is from the point of view of the victim of a terrible farm accident - a teenager, Jake.
I have a 'Mature' rating on it due to language that may be offensive to some.
The_Bookshop judges will critique this submission and then, when chosen revisions are made, it will be submitted again for judging.
Apologies if that's too much information - just clarifying why this story appears twice on my Wattpad profile.
