The prompt is: “so, as I looked over the edge I saw…”

I look over the edge and see water. I back away and sit down on a deck chair. My friend Sarah comes over.

“Why don’t you go in?” She asks.

“I don’t like the water.” I say.

“Come on it’s not that bad. She says. “I’ll go with you.”  I stand up reluctantly and walk over to the pool. I dip my feet into the cold water and wait. Sarah jumps in and waits for me. I slide in slowly the water rising past my waist then my shoulders. I slip under the water and think to myself, this isn’t so bad.
