"Not very well," said Ginger.
"Me neither," he said. The commotion behind them was getting worse.
"Still," he said, taking her hand. "We could look on this as a great opportunity to improve really quickly.”

“But mostly I spearfished alone. I liked to get up before dawn and make some coffee and drink it out on the beach as the sun came up. Those cool mornings are what I lived for after the long-hours work week. I liked striping down to my shorts and letting the cold wind brace my skin as I pulled on the wetsuit. I liked spitting into my mask and rubbing the saliva around as a natural lens defogger. But most of all I loved killing fish with a spear.”
