But no matter how far I swam, I couldn’t find him. As terror overwhelmed me, I suddenly felt a sharp pain in my lower abdomen and started bleeding.
Because of the stress, my perlods had always been irregular. Therefore, I didn’t even know I was pregnant until I lost the child I had longed for without ever knowing.
When I woke up, Irvin didn’t blame Julianne for misleading me. Instead; he had accused me of being thoughtless and causing my unborn baby’s death. He’d said I was useless, that I should’ve drowned in the ocean.
At the time, I thought he was right. How could I not have died in that ocean?
Since then, I could no longer swim. Whenever I entered the water, I felt I deserved to drown.

I felt so tired and broken. Maybe I was meant to die in this water.
Just as I gave up and allowed myself to sink into the dark, a figure appeared, swimming toward

As Irvin carried Julianne away, he glanced back at the pond.
Seeing that I hadn’t surfaced yet, he frowned. Something felt off. No matter how skilled I was at swimming or holding my breath, I’d been underwater far too long.
He wondered if I was really so stubborn that I’d risk my life just to make a point. The more Irvin thought about it, the more uneasy he felt.
Just as he was about to put Julianne down and check the pond, someone later, they pulled my limp body out of the water.

When Irvin saw me unconscious and unresponsive, his heart sank. He hurriedly dropped Julianne and rushed toward me.
Julianne watched his frantic movements, and her hands tightened into fists. She couldn’t believe I was still alive and somehow always managed to escape death.
When the person who had saved me began performing CPR and went in for mouth–to–mouth resuscitation, Irvin shoved them aside to do it himself.
