Taking Three Steps back
Gasp! Plunge! Gasp! Plunge!Flan felt as though her lungs were about to explode. Through her foggy goggles, she saw with relief that the end was near.
It turned out to be much further than it looked. She reached the end of the lap eventually. Taking her usual 5-minute breather before she continue this leisurely exercise, an old man plunged into the water just beside her.
He cried out a friendly greeting at another old man who was immersing a pint-sized baby boy chin-down into the pool.
It was a beautiful sight. The baby gurgling in joy. The man, clearly the grandfather who was entrusted (and very happily so) with the task of looking after this adorable creature, cooing in joy. Ahhh...the joys of life!
Flan was glad she has decided to come down for a swim. She wouldn't want to miss this if she could.
