Striking Tides

  The waves rumble the cliff to its core beneath my feet, the battle ensues.

  With the price of my fathers disappointment heavily weighing my shoulders, I grit my teeth and charge at it with my self-sharpened spear, expecting it's shell of a body to be pierced atop my stick for my fathers eyes to feast on.

  But instead, i remember- or at least i think i remember, me taking one step too much with my overflowing pride, missing the crab completely then ultimately falling off the cliff we were stood on.

  Wait. Who is that talking? Is it me? No it can't be i would've known. Is it my father? Can't be that either.

  I don't even know how i can even recollect my thoughts considering that i'm slowly descending into a body of water the size of which i can't even imagine.

  WAIT

  How do i know i am still falling?

  I haven't even bothered opening my eyes.

  Here goes nothing!…

  Why is everything so blurry?

  All i can make out is that im still on a beach due to the sand, am i drugged up?
