Inside, her routine turns into a small crisis when her older brother Noah confronts her about a wet floor and her missing lab jacket, setting a tense yet familiar domestic rhythm. The narrative foregrounds urgency, sibling dynamics, and hints of deeper personal grief.","[OceanofPDF.com](OceanofPDF.com)  \nCopyright © 2026 by Danielle Tasma  \nAll rights reserved.  \nNo part of this publication may be reproduced, distributed, or transmitted in any form or by any means, including photocopying, recording, or other electronic or mechanical methods, without the prior written permission of the author, except in the case of brief quotations used in reviews.

What time is it?  \nCold water crashes over my shoulders, stealing the air from my lungs and snapping me fully awake. I cling to my board for a second, blinking salt out of my eyes while my wet hair sticks to my face in the most annoying way possible. Surfing before school was supposed to be quick. I told myself twenty minutes, tops. But I have a feeling a little more time has passed. And now I’m going to be late for school. Again.  \nI quickly paddle to the shore, my arms burning. And when I hit the sand, I race towards my bag and search for my phone, but one glance at the screen confirms exactly what I was afraid of; I should’ve left fifteen minutes ago.  \n“Dammit.”  \nI yank a shirt over my bikini, shove everything into my bag, and tuck my board under my arm. Sand sticks to my feet as I take off toward home. Luckily, home is only a two-minute run from here—don’t ask me how I know.  \n“Running late again, Maddy?”  \nI glance up at the sound of my name and spot one of my neighbours walking her ancient golden retriever down the beach path, coffee in one hand, leash in the other.  \n“What gave it away?” I yell back as I stumble over a shell. She shakes her head, smiling, like this is the least surprising thing she’s seen all morning.  \nAfter two minutes of running—and way too much tripping over my own feet, because running with a surf board under your arm doesn't look hot at all like in the movies—I finally make it home. Even when I’m late and half out of breath, I can’t help glancing at our beach house for a second, sun-  \nfaded and tucked between the dunes, the kind of place that always smells faintly like salt and sunscreen.  \nI take the porch steps two at a time, shove my board against the railing, and burst through the back door, my wet feet sliding across the hardwood. I drop my bag onto a kitchen bar stool and start grabbing everything I need for school. Anatomy notebook from the counter. Pencil case from the drawer.
