A Rescue
When I took Alan to the seaside that day, I had no idea that he was such a poor swimmer. He didn’t tell me and I had never seen him swim before. But he did brag a little about how good he was in the water. I was confident that he would be all right.
As soon as we reached the beach, Samad and I plunged in. Alan stated that he would join us later. He was the only one who was not wearing his swim trunks under his clothes and so he had to go to the toilet to change. We did not wait for him but went into the water ourselves. As we splashed about for a few minutes we saw Alan arriving after he had changed. He waved to us and we waved back, telling him that he was to get into the water and join us immediately on pain of death. He smiled.
He watched his every move as we tread water about 40 metres from the beach. He walked in and started to swim towards us. How were we to know that the goof thought we were standing in the water? He swam towards us and then when he was 20 metres away stopped and tried to stand up and promptly started drowning! At first we thought he was fooling around and then realised that he was really struggling. Samad was a trained lifeguard and did not wait anymore. I saw him making swift strokes towards Alan and followed behind to help.
As Samad was swimming towards him, I saw Alan go down. I stood still treading water to remember the spot. In a few more strokes Samad reached the spot. I shouted to him to tell him that it was the spot. He dived. Immediately I started swimming again. Samad came up—alone. I panicked and felt a cold grip on my heart. With a determined look in his eyes, Samad dived again—just as I arrived. He came up and this time he had Alan by the hair. He was not struggling. Both of us headed out for the beach with Alan in tow. We dragged him on to the beach and Alan went to work to revive him with artificial respiration. I ran to call an ambulance.
When I returned, Alan was stirring. I heaved a sigh of relief.
