"I don't like life so much anymore, Ronny." Poppy said so softly, it almost got carried away by the wind, unheard.
"Why's that, Pops?" Ronny and Poppy were laid back on the grass, staring at the sky. Well, Ronny was looking at the dark sky. Poppy was staring at her nails.
"Life is yanking me round and round and I don't think I can be able to handle it any longer."
"Poppy-"
"And it keeps yanking me further down into the tidal waves, drowning me, suffocating me. And you know what? I was never good at swimming and its getting exhausting trying to fight it."
Ronny looked away from the sky to meet eyes with Poppy. She was biting her chapped, pale lips and her hands were playing with a string on her old gray sweater.
"Then I'll teach you how to swim."

this book is going to be kind of sad since the two characters both face many struggles, etc. So if you were hoping this would be some happy, overly romantic book, I'm sorry but that's not it
Anyways I do hope you all enjoy this :)
