"Get up, sleepyhead!"
Atul shook Pinky awake. Squinting her eyes, she woke up. the room was full of sunlight. It was their second honeymoon to the Caribbean Islands.
"What time is it?"
"It's snorkeling time!" he said, rummaging around in the suitcase.
"What?"
"Well, the actual time is just before 10 AM. I woke up a couple of hours ago and was hungry. You were fast asleep so I didn't wake you up. Went to the breakfast buffet. Ran into our friends Chad and Kelly there."
The mention of Chad and Kelly brought the events of the previous night rushing back , how they made new friends while being here.
"What did they say?" she wondered if Chad had mentioned what happened last night.
"They said they've booked a snorkeling boat. I put down our names too. There will be 3 more couples. A boat will take us out to a reef. Then using foot flippers and goggles and breathing masks, we swim around staring at the pretty fish on that reef. Sounds like fun?"
"Yes, but," Pinky said getting off the bed, "I can't swim."
"I know. I asked, and they said you don't really need to be a swimmer. They'll give us these inflated life jackets anyway."
"I don't know..." Pinky was terrified at the thought of being in the deep ocean. She had grown up in the most central province of India, far away from the seas.
"Plus there will be lifeguards with us. And I will be with you." Atul said, rubbing her shoulder lovingly.
"Okay. I'll give it a try." Pinky said sportingly.
Half an hour later, they were in a glass bottom boat heading out to the reef. With them were two middle-aged white couples, one young Japanese couple, and of course, Chad and Kelly. Pinky's fears of them being upset about last night were unfounded. Kelly didn't seem to even know about it. She kept yapping away as usual. Chad gave her a couple of wry smiles, but nothing major.
Pinky was sitting in the boat, nervous about being in the ocean. She was grabbing Atul's hand tightly. He was wearing swimming trunks like all the men on the boat. All women were wearing bikinis or one piece swimsuits. Except Pinky who was wearing shorts and a t-shirt.
Two minutes into the ride, suddenly, Pinky's life jacket snapped open. She almost jumped off her seat in fear.
"Chill, maan." The Jamaican captain of the boat said and approached Pinky. "It just wasn't closed right."
He reached down and tried to close the buckle across Pinky's chest. She was conscious about having a strange man's hands so close to her chest. Her boobs felt the pressure as he squeezed the jacket tight. But even he couldn't close it.
"Hey Sammy, gimme one of those extra large ones from the hold." He said to one of his assistants.
Pinky blushed and looked at the captain with an offended expression on her face. He just smiled back.
For the next fifteen minutes, Pinky actually started feeling a lot less nervous. Kelly was telling her that she had snorkeled many times and it really didn't require any swimming skills. Plus the ocean was still and through the glass bottom, Pinky could see many multi-colored fish and other creatures swimming around. The thought of seeing them up close was appealing to her. By the time the boat stopped at the edge of the reef, Pinky was feeling a lot more up to the challenge.
Sammy handed out breathing masks, asked everyone to put their flippers on. He gave a short tutorial on what to do. He told everyone to stay on their stomachs, breathe only through their mouths, told them what to do if water entered the mask, and told them to keep moving their legs. He also said that he, and another guy named Tony would be with the group so if everyone had an problems, they could just wave them over.
With that done, the couples moved to the back of the boat and started entering the water. The other three couples went in first and followed Sammy. Then Tony went in.
"Just keep calm and breathe through your mouth." Kelly warmly hugged Pinky before getting into the water herself. Chad got in behind her.
Then in went Atul.
"Come on, honey." he said, floating next to the boat. "See how I do it. The jacket is very buoyant. You won't drown even if you try."
He got on his stomach, made a circle, and then straightened up again.
Pinky said a little prayer and got in the water. At least it was nice and warm. She held onto the stairs for a few seconds.
"Let go, maan!" the captain said to her. She found it strange that he was calling her maan even though she was a woman.
Nevertheless, Pinky counted to three and let go. She floated a few feet away from the boat with the current.
The next few seconds were absolute hell. The life jacket was buoyant. But Pinky felt her body leaning backwards. Her head got half submerged in water. And out of habit, she breathed from her nose despite all the warning. Water filled her mouth and nose. She panicked and started flailing around. She was sure she was about to die.
That's when she felt Tony's firm hands grab her by the shoulders and move her back to the stairs. She grabbed on to it and took off the mask.
"Cough! Cough! Cough!" she spat out the water and breathed.
Atul swam close to her.
"You panicked. Don't panic."
"YEAH!? Well, it's not as easy!" Pinky uncharacteristically snapped back.
"Give it another try!" Atul said.
"NO!" Pinky said and started trying to climb back into the boat.
But she forgot that she was still wearing the flippers. The right flipper slipped, she lost balance, and fell in the water again. The panic returned. And she started flailing again. This time Atul pulled her back.
"I am done!" Pinky emphatically said as Atul helped her take the flippers off. She climbed back onto the boat.
Atul knew that Pinky was normally very docile and obedient. So this display of pique from her made him decide to let it go.
Once back on the solid boat, Pinky started feeling like herself again.
"I'm sorry." she said to Atul. "Why don't you go on? I'll just sit here and look at pretty things through the glass bottom."
"No, if you want, I can stay with you." Atul said, but the reluctance in his voice was clear.
"Go on. I will be fine."
And Atul followed Tony and the others and swam away.
Pinky sat on her seat looking down the glass bottom. The captain was sitting in his chair near the engine.
Atul shook Pinky awake. Squinting her eyes, she woke up. the room was full of sunlight. It was their second honeymoon to the Caribbean Islands.

"It's snorkeling time!" he said, rummaging around in the suitcase.
