I was cutting a stale bagel in half this morning and wound up cutting off a piece of my finger . Like , the pad of my left middle finger was sitting there on the knife . Izz was a hero and gave me water and sugar and went to the store for gauze and called his mama to find out what to do . It doesn't hurt , and it didn't bleed all that much , and now that it's all wrapped up and I can't see it it's not making me all panicky ... but I did have a lot of adrenaline going and I was freaked out most of the day . I wound up not doing any of the errands I was supposed to do today . 
Question: What might be different if the narrator wasn't cutting a bagel in half ?
They wouldn't have cut off part of their finger
