"Ahhhu ahhhu" Mary coughed out as she was trying to clear her lungs when the saltiness of water was trying to hurt her throat. "I really hate the taste of the sea" she cried. The young boy, who was staring at her just chuckled. "Are you alright miss?" He asked Mary. Mary couldn't hear him clearly as her ears were filled with sea water as well but she can vividly see the gesture of this charming boy, 5 feet and 8 inch tall, she imagined. Mary is a little snobbed girl and she just pretended she didn't noticed him at all. But at the side of her eyes she could see the smile of that young boy. Mary just started walking away from him until she reached out the bay.
"I wondered who was that kind boy who tried to help me a while ago? He must guessed I was drowning because I was coughing loud. Why I was so bad to ignore him? I should have said thanks to his kind gesture to me. Anyway he is just a stranger. I don't know him. We just arrived this island just a  few days ago so I think he would forget me." Mary scold herself. Mary was blaming herself for the way she reacted a while ago. She thought that he must be being hospitable to the visitor of their island. As she walk on the hot surface of the sand she can feel the strong wind on her face..."why the ocean smell like this? sge complained. She was wondering many why's because she was not used to all of this newly adventurous surrounding. The breathtaking bluish to greenish sea water and blue sky matching with the purest white sand. Her clasmates Gevina was calling her so loudly at the small hut trying to get Mary attention. "Hey Mary! What have you been thinking a while ago I was trying to call you! And why you looked pale?Are you ok?" Gevina asked. Mary just smiled and nodded. "Come sit here and eat some grilled fish...Gevina offered her some food excitingly. Gevina is her classmate. The school just open a few days ago and Mary was became clise to Gevina. Actually, Gevina attitude is quite strong. She can get angry easily compared to Mary that so naive, quite.
But Mary was a tranferre from the city to their Island so Mary has a few close friend yet and one of them is Gevina. Mary is quite good in school subjects and she is a friendly girl to all the girl classmates. She is 5 feet and 4 inches tall and fair skinned. Student in their school mostly know Mary is a new transferree because of her  speaking ability of this island dialect.
