Ears clogged full of salty water, eyes blurred by the glaring sunlight, the only thing you could visualise was a shadow over you. It was the same girl who worked as the lifeguard at your resort, Maïmouna, her name.

Only now, you had been caught drowning in the sea by her instead of the swimming pool. How embarrassing, this wasn't the first time you'd done this, and she had saved you.

"Helloooo, can you hear me?" She tapped your cheek with her palm, trying to wake you from your drowned daze.
