When Gem Atkinson's video conference ended, it was noon.
As soon as he closed the laptop, the yacht swayed violently. With his agile movements, he managed to grab a corner of the table and stabilize himself.
Next, he took a long stride, and within a few steps, he was out of the room.
Looking around, he saw that many people were gathered around Forsythia Brown's fishing spot. Some of them were saying, "She's down there, she must be down there, hurry up and save her."
Gem's eyes narrowed as he shouted "Viola" and dashed forward in a few quick strides.
He was strong and quickly pushed through the crowd, only to see Forsythia leaning over the railing, anxiously watching the water's surface.
Thinking that she had been thrown overboard by the swaying yacht, Gem's heart sank. He stepped forward and embraced her, "Viola."
"Gem, Gem, Frank Atkinson fell into the water."
