Turbulent Waves : Episode 2

Episode 2 

As soon as they arrived at the hotel on Pulau Mamutik, Bessima excused herself to attend to some other business. Farah and Zarif were whisked to their honeymoon suite, and they were completely awed by the amazing room, as well as the jaw-dropping view of the sea from their balcony. While munching on the complimentary heart-shaped chocolates, they excitedly discussed what activities they can do the next day on the island, especially since both of them enjoyed the outdoors. They decided that since the islands of Sabah are world-renowned for their reefs, the first thing to do was definitely to go diving. When Bessima came back to check on them before going home, they told her of their plans, and she happily agreed to arrange everything. Farah excitedly invited Bessima to join them as she was an experienced diver, and she agreed. All three of them looked forward to an exciting diving trip the next day...

After a light breakfast, Farah and Zarif joined Bessima on a boat she chartered for them, and introduced them to the boat driver, who was surprisingly a woman. Bessima had even prepared all the equipment for them, and gave them a quick tutorial on how to use all the equipment and helped them put on the suits (she even had a special Muslimah diving suits for both herself and Farah). When they reached the dive site, Farah was feeling apprehensive as the location was further out than she had thought. It was just the sea for miles and miles around, and the island was a small speck in the distance. But she tried to shake her fear off, trying to convince herself that in the hands of a professional diver like Bessima, she should be fine. She focused her attention back on Bessima, who was explaining about how to dive. She strapped on the equipment and tanks on both of them, and jokingly asked them if they had any last words. Farah laughed nervously, and a chill ran down her back as Bessima gave her a sudden hug. As the three of them took the plunge, Farah held tightly to Zarif's hands...

Her first thought of the underwater scenery was, "Why is it so blurry?" She thought it was just condensation in her goggles, but then she started feeling dizzy. Zarif and Bessima were already a few meters ahead, completely absorbed with the amazing marine life. 

Neither noticed, as Farah slowly blacked out, and bubbles  stopped coming out of her mask...



Await the next episode...
