Chapter 3 - Dragging The Exhausted Mother Out To Safety

Strong arms wrapped securely around the shivering mother as she thrashed desperately against the heavy water.

The junior guest hauled her heavy, soaked navy and cream uniform toward the shallow steps of the pool.

She opened her heavy eyes, searching frantically through the blurred vision for her four-year-old daughter.

“My... my baby... where is my little girl?” she gasped out between ragged breaths of freezing night air.
