The short story "Manuel and the Magic Dox" by Ekaterina Sedia tells the fairytale of a young boy named Manuel and his friendship with a red fox. The story deals with legends and keeping alive one's beliefs, the traditions. The story also deals with the displacement of the natives and the influence of the European way of living.

In the story, Manuel encountered a fox on his way back home, by following a trail left by the fox prints. He gave the small red fox his snacks that Uncle Tobi had prepared for him. Once he got back home, he found that his mother had suffered a stroke and that he needed to now take care of her and not go to school.

So, the second thing that happened in the story is that Manuel returned home to find his mother has suffered a stroke.

Explanation:

Well, to summarize a passage, you'd first have to read the passage. Afterwards, you'd most likely want to make sure that you understood it. Taking notes isn't required, but it's helpful if you aren't strong in understanding them. Next up, you'd probably try to find the main idea. Summarizing is something that you could do easily, even in your everyday life. You watch a cool movie this month? Summarize it.

Let's say I had just watched Endgame and I was SUPER eager to share it with somebody, but I can't give away the whole movie or else they wouldn't want to watch it and they'd most likely get mad at you. You'd have to summarize it. State the main idea and thesis and make sure that they can figure out what the plot is without you having to tell them the plot. You're welcome. (:
