"You’re quite bold for someone in your position."the short haired woman said.
Instinctively, I took a step back.
The lake rippled behind me.
A chill ran down my spine.
"Stay back," I warned.
But they didn’t.
"Or what?" the tall woman mocked, reaching out as if to grab me.
It happened too fast.
I tried to pull away, but the short-haired woman shoved me—harder than she intended.
For a split second, everything froze.
My heart stopped.
Then—
Splash.
The cold hit me like a shock.
Water swallowed me whole.
I couldn’t breathe.
I couldn’t think.
Panic exploded in my chest as I flailed, my body sinking immediately. I tried to scream, but water rushed into my mouth. My limbs felt heavy, useless.
I couldn’t swim.
I couldn’t swim.
My hands broke through the surface for a brief second before slipping under again.
Above me, I could hear faint, frantic voices.
"I—I didn’t mean—!" one of them stammered.
"You pushed her!" the other shouted.
"You came at her too!"
"Do something!"
"You do something!"
"I can’t swim!"
"Neither can I!"
The last thing I saw was someone in a uniform rushing toward the lake... then strong arms pulling me out of the water.
