He turned around and saw the shining steel fork. His face turned a light green color. The muscles in his legs moved up and down.

Go ahead and keep your old apples." He got to his feet, and slowly walked out of the barn door. I had not moved or said one word. A moment later, I ran and picked the apples from the floor.
"Anvol, Anvol."
He continued walking across the field. I shouted louder," Anvol, wait. You can have the apples." Anvol climbed the fence and did not look back. He walked toward the store down the road.
