Aya probably never meant to do it.
Nevertheless, the windowpane had been subject to inward water pressure for too long and could not withstand the new force. While she meant it as just a show of protest, her pulling of the handle broke a precarious balance of forces, compromising its airtig...

"Aya…"
Chihaya was taken aback. Yes, that was the deal. I had been so caught up in my own happiness, I didn’t bother how Aya was feeling.
(Really?) (That’s great, Chihaya) Aya's cheerful voice from the other day rang inside Chihaya’e ears.
"I…I’m sorry."

"Puff."
Chihaya’s head was now above the water.
"Aya?” She called out, hearing no response. What was happening? Chihaya looked around in the dim light and finally found her younger cousin perched on the bunk bed.
"What's wrong, Aya?"
Chihaya swam close to the bedside ...

Even for a sea shrine priestess, receiving an oracle is an arduous physical task that includes staying inside a deep cave for extended time while continuing to exhale air. Deprivation of air under large water pressure brings both pain and exhilaration, eventually leading to sense of omnipotence a...

Diving down, Chihaya noted the sea was even clearer than it appeared from above. As she swam down and approached the wreck, she felt like she was flying and looking for a safe landing spot. Chihaya made the twenty-five meters to the ship with her breast strokes and entered the vessel through the ...

Next morning was another sunny day.
The sea was calm and so clear that the dark outline of Yaeyama Maru’s sunken hull was visible beneath the waves. A perfect day for freediving.
Chihaya and Aya had already moored their boat to the buoy and were readying themselves for a lo...

One night at the inn, Chihaya was doing the dishes in the kitchen. Then Auntie came in, with a somewhat excited look on her face
"Chihaya, you have a phone call. It's your dad."
"Eh, Dad..?"

"Shall we head back now?"
Aya said as she slipped into the rubber boat. The waves were getting a little rough, probably because of inclement weather somewhere offshore. Sporadic white wave crests were also visible.
"Sure," Chihaya responded. "When we get home, I have to catch up on my...

After the match, Chihaya and Aya decided to relax holding on to the edge of their inflatable raft.
While their bodies were cool, shoulders and up that were out of the water dried quickly in the scorching island sun.

Time passed.
Chihaya reopened her eyes. The pain in her lungs grew and she could no longer fake a sleep. As she focused to keep her mouth closed, her throat heaved as if she were breathing. She looked at her watch again. She read three minutes and twenty-two seconds.

It was about the fifth time Chihaya looked up at the swaying sunlight above her head. She gripped the beam beneath her and put strength into her hands.
