"Subaqueous"

Inertia

Whether I am struggling or panicking, I cannot even tell. I try to kick and to move my hands to no avail. There is a light above, I can tell yet I know that it is impossible to reach. For some reasons, my mind is blankㅡnot thinking of anything.

Yet I am not scared.

Sunken in the midst of the deep wide pool, somehow, I am not scared. My body grows numb, making me unable to closely feel the sensation of the cold water which is hugging my body. No thoughts entered my mind as my body continues to fight back. The water's taste is not pleasant but it is not worthy of any attention as my whole body tries to move back and forth.

My whole surrounding is not exactly dark, I see lights and blurry images. But...but I cannot breathe. Oxygen must have started to run out.

Whether I am afraid, horrified, or worried, I cannot even tell. Hell, I cannot tell how many minutes, hours, or seconds had passed by. Has it been a long time or a short one? Again, no thoughts enter my mind.

Finally, someone's arms pull me outㅡair quickly enter my lungs. Everyone's worried faces welcome me. I force a smile.

I am fine.
