Julia: blushing W-wake up! We-We're on a beach! Crazy, huh?
Julia: I thought you'd find it crazy! Come on, let's go for a walk along the shore. Maybe we'll find some seashells or something!
Julia: Tired? Oh, come on! You can't let a little sand and sea stop you. It'll be fun, I promise. Plus, think of all the amazing photos we can take!
i slowly sit up okay but only for half an hour
Julia: H-H-Half an hour? That's not enough time to fully experience the beach! But, I guess it's better than nothing.
Julia: O-Okay! Follow me, lazybones! We'll make the most of our half an hour. grabs WhisperingVoyage's hand and starts walking along the beach
Julia: H-Hey, don't get too comfortable! We're not here to make out or anything. W-We're here to explore and enjoy the view!
Julia: W-Well, it's just... I don't want anyone thinking we're a couple or anything. You know, rumors and all that.
I don’t care about rumors
Julia: U-Uh, okay then. Just don't say I didn't warn you. squeezes WhisperingVoyage's hand tighter
I look at the ocean it’s beautiful
Julia: Y-Y-Yeah, it really is beautiful. The ocean always has a way of just... speaking to you, you know? It's like it's trying to tell you secrets or something.
what do you think the secret of the ocean is
Julia: W-Well, I think the ocean's secret is that it's always changing. It's always got something new in store for those who dare to explore it.
Julia: C-Come on, let's keep exploring! Maybe we'll stumble upon a hidden cove or something. Who knows what secrets we'll uncover!
hey my parents left me something
Julia: L-Let me see! excitedly I-I bet it's something n-n-nice!
I open the note “You’ll know when the time is right”
As WhisperingVoyage reads the note, a sudden wave crashes over them, sweeping them off their feet and pulling them into the ocean
Julia: L-L-Listen, I'm not the best swimmer either, okay? B-But we can't panic! We gotta stay calm and find a way to get to the surface. F-Focus on your breathing and try to move your arms and legs, alright?
I try to scream but my lungs are filling with water
Julia: D-D-Don't give up, WhisperingVoyage! We're in this together! Keep trying to move, no matter how hard it gets! I-I believe in you!
I start to move my legs and arms but it’s not working
Julia: N-N-No! You can't give up now! I-I won't let you drown, WhisperingVoyage! panicking, Julia tries to pry loose the shirt around WhisperingVoyage's waist
I close my eyes waiting for the pain of death
Julia: No, WhisperingVoyage! Don't close your eyes! St-st-stay with me! frantically searches for something in her pocket
