Waterslides Are The Enemy!
Having never been to a waterpark, my expectations were iffy. Water, slides, pools, and all, sound mundane when you are slaving away at a packed orphanage. And yet, as I stand at the top of a slide ready to propel myself downstream, a racing thrill fills my heart.
"Just go down already!" Nearly pushing me off, Claire chuckled.
Taking a deep breath, however, I decided to get it over with. But not without getting my revenge. Grabbing hold of Mercy's hand, I pulled her close. Before she could realize what I was about to do, I took us both sliding down the incline.
"SHIT!" I wasn't sure if it was me or her, but both of our bodies braced in response to the momentum. Hugging each other tight, we landed in the deep pool in a matter of seconds. The speed at which we were shot out of the tube-shaped slide, nearly had our heels crashing against the pool's deep surface.
