That's right, that person is me
Tropical fish sway leisurely in the water, seagrass gently and softly, with the waves of the water slowly swaying, reserved and graceful, there is a blue fish swimming past me, the scales are yellow patterns, the sea is very clear, the sun passes through the sea, shining on the fish, it is slightly shiny, there is a kind of breathtaking beauty, I am attracted by it, I can't help but follow it, there is a diving device, unconsciously swimming farther and farther...
This was my first zero-distance contact with the sea, and my friend gave me this set of diving equipment before I set off. Yesterday followed the island staff to the island tens of kilometers of coral reef area, under the leadership and guidance of the staff to dive into the water, saw the thrilling beauty of the coral reef, flocks of tropical fish shuttled through the jungle of the coral reef, free and leisurely, it is a world completely different from human beings, dazzling beauty, moving peace, forget the self-leisure, I could not swim, thinking of having a coach around to escort, so I still dared to go into the water! I am glad that I made this decision to dive into the water and become a part of the sea, which is not the same as the beauty and experience of the harvest across the water.
After returning to the hotel, the shock brought by the diving was as if I had been hit by an electric current, and the aftermath was gushing and itching, so today I came to the beach again and dived into the water again.
There are no coral reefs in the shallow water, only the aquatic weeds of Nana and the tropical fish in pairs, I follow the fish, I don't know how long I have been swimming... Can't swim too far, I remind myself, after all, is a swimmer, although wearing a wetsuit, with a respirator ......... Turning around, I began to swim back.
Suddenly, I felt as if the mask had entered the water, I couldn't breathe normally, I hurriedly tread water, wanted to stand up, took off the mask and put it on again, for people who can't swim, the first reaction to encountering danger must be to stand up, she needs to find a stable fulcrum, when I try to stand up only to find that the clarity of the water misled me, I actually swam to the deep water, at the moment when I stepped on the water and came out of the water, I saw the old justice on the beach playing with the sand with my two-year-old son, I wanted to call, but before I could make a sound, I fell into the water again Struggling again to emerge from the water, in the distance, I saw him with his head down and not looking in my direction... I fell into the water again...
"What to do?" After a moment of fluttering and panic, I fell back into the water.
"Do I want to die at the bottom of the sea..." Before that, I imagined N ways to die, the most common of which were serious illness and death, as well as accidental car accidents, plane crashes... But she didn't think she would drown, and for someone who couldn't swim, she wouldn't have thought that one day she would go swimming in the sea...
The water is crystal clear, the aquatic grass is green, the fluttering is very cute, if I die, will I float in the water with them? Whether such a method of death is too romantic, it seems to be more acceptable than the death method of inserting tubes in the hospital bed...
Suddenly the figure of the parents flashed in their minds, I am the daughter, they are their spiritual pillar, how can they accept the fact that the white-haired person sends the black-haired person; How do husbands and sons return home? How he explained to his parents, how could he explain clearly that I died under his eyes.........
What can I do
What can I do?
What can I do?
Thinking of this, instantly calm down, according to the water face survey just now, it is estimated that it is two hundred meters away from the beach, and there is a long shallow area, maybe I only need to swim 50 meters to the shallow water area...
Can I swim 50 meters?
Looking back on the past, my only swimming experience was to accompany my 7-year-old daughter to learn to swim, she was timid and reported two swimming classes and did not, the action essentials are understood, is not to break the guts into the water, in order to encourage her, I thought of a way, and she played a game of foot grabbing in the water, who grabbed whose foot in the water first, who won, so the mother and daughter had a lot of fun in the water, she also broke the fear of the water in the game, and began to enjoy the fun of swimming, she always told others "The mother who can't swim taught her to swim" 。 I also tried swimming in that game, and I couldn't breathe and swam for nearly 20 meters.
Then try how far you can swim this time!
I meditated on the essentials of the actions that my daughter listened to in the swimming class at that time, and began to swim back, how far I could swim, how long I could hold back... Thinking in my heart, hands and feet are used together, and the action in my mind is action......... After a long time as if a century had passed, I felt like I was going to die of exhaustion if I didn't breathe anymore, so I came out of the water and pedaled at the same time, hoping to borrow a fulcrum to let me stand firm and breathe a breath of fresh air............
I still can't stand steadily, toe-toe shaking in the water, but obviously feel the water is much shallower, stick out my head again, I took off the mask, stretched out the surface of the water and shook, at this time I saw the husband in the distance raised his head, was looking at my side, just wanted to open his mouth to call, the water rushed over, quickly closed his mouth, could not call, only continue to put his hands and masks out of the water to shake the signal, take advantage of the gap in the water to emerge from the water to look at him, he looked down at the son who played with the sand, and then looked up at me who was fluttering up and down, Obviously he didn't realize that I was in danger, and he didn't run over, I buried myself in the water again, and Yu Guang glanced at him, only to see him bend down and pick up his son and walk in my direction.
Maybe just 10 meters... Maybe just 5 meters... I could stand up, with such a thought, and at the moment when I emerged from the water, I fumbled to put the mask back on, and as long as there was still a little breath inhaled, I could hold on for a while, dive into the water again and swim desperately to the shore............
When I came out of the water again and used my feet to find the fulcrum, I was pleasantly surprised to find that there was a reef under my feet that I borrowed, I no longer stepped on the soft water grass, the hard reef held me steadily, although the body was still shaking, but half of my head could already reach out of the water, I took a greedy breath, tried to stabilize the body, and stayed still, watching him in the distance holding the child towards me.
"Mom, I'm playing with hermit crabs!" My son shook the shovel in his hand, and his childish voice sounded like a natural sound, and he waved to me from a distance.
"Is it fun? Mom will play with you for a while! Looking at the father and son who were getting closer and closer, I smiled.
"What's wrong with you?" Because the husband was holding his son, he could only slowly wade through the water.
"The respirator seems to be broken!" I said lightly.
"Oh!" He held his son in his left hand, reached over with his right hand, pulled me, and the three of us walked slowly toward the beach.
For the rest of my life, I look back at the sea of water and sky, the sea under the sun sparkles with sparkling waves, with magical beauty...
