Ride the waves

Walk | "Talk" | think

One day the pup would be reasonably large, even if not quite as much as his older brothers but, for here and now he was still small and it took little time to be in as far as he could go.  He took a cautious step forward and then about another half-step before the water was reaching his upper chest. If he tried taking another step from here the water always tried to suck his legs away from the ground as if to leave him at its mercy.  As the wave washed in he still felt his body lift up for just a heartbeat so that the toes would be a hairsbreadth off the sand but only for a second but it was still unnerving to lose control over where he was. “Ok, right here.”

After marking his spot a thought occurred to him that made Kotori forget the waves for a moment as he looked up directly at Mort again, “You fish while swimming in the water?” That sure sounded impressive to a pup that hadn’t figured out swimming yet, “I wanna learn how to swim and fish!”  Kotori imagined getting to bring home all the fish he’d catch and how far out he could go to get the bigger fish that were surely out there.
