77. Diving at the Swimming Pool
Donald Walker always looked forward to summer. As
sat down in class, he thought about all
things he was going to do during his
break. He even made a list. On the
of his list was swimming. Donald loved to
swimming. Even though he was excited to get
break, there was something, or someone he was
to miss. Sarah Lee Parker was his classmate,
he rarely talked to her. Donald liked Sarah
lot. He knew he was going to miss
.
The first day of summer had arrived. Donald
up around noon. He hated waking up early
school, so he wanted to sleep late for
first day of summer. As soon as he
up, he put on his swimming shorts, got
towel, kissed his mom goodbye, and ran to
park to go to the pool. As Donald
into the pool, his heart began to beat
. The water was clear, but cold.
One of
's favorite things to do at the pool was
go on the diving board. As Donald stood
the edge of the diving board, he started
in order to get high enough to do
flip. He jumped once, and then twice. When
was about to jump off again, he saw
Sarah was looking at him from the entrance
the pool. Donald got so nervous that he
't finish the flip, and he landed on his
. Everyone in the deep end of the pool
laughing. Donald felt embarrassed as he swam to
edge of the pool, but when he got
he saw Sarah waiting for him. "Ouch, that
to hurt. You want to go swimming with
?" Sarah asked Donald. Donald said sure nervously, and
swimming with Sarah. Donald had never been happier,
never been in that much pain.
