"Oh!" Beauty exclaimed, standing quickly. Right. Right! "Right!" she exclaimed and grabbed her ball... Megan said they were supposed to knock the pins down with it, but she didn't say exactly how. Did you throw the ball and hope it landed in the middle of the pins? Did you walk down the lane and swing at them?
Fortunately, another game was going on in a lane a few places down. She watched the man who was taking his turn, mirroring how he held the ball first, then studying how he threw it. So.... The ball was supposed to roll off your fingers, after you swung it.... Right. Right, she could do this!
She actually didn't have that bad of a form, for her first time on the line. But she had no idea how hard she'd need to swing the ball. It ended up rolling leisurely down the middle of the lane until it began listing to the left...and finally ended up in the gutter, bypassing every single pin.
"Hmm," she said, then threw an apologetic smile over her shoulder toward Kitty and Megan. "So, maybe I'll toss it a little harder next time..."
She went back to the chairs beside her friends and hid behind her hands.
