A Swim

Stepping out of the warm shower, Demetri wrapped a towel around his waist and made his way to the balcony. In truth, this was the first official vacation he had taken in almost a decade and already he could feel the urge to go back to work, to prevent himself from losing himself in the turbulent sea of his thoughts. 

Clenching his hands, he gazed out into the dark night. However, before he could appreciate the scenery, he caught a glimpse of a lone figure walking towards the pool.

He raised an eyebrow as he noticed her choice of clothing. She'd actually chosen a dark-coloured spandex suit that was more suitable for professional swimming than here in this quiet pool. As she walked closer, he half expected her to take a running dive into the water, displaying her swimming skills.
