Amber had always thought that Emma was her best friend. They had been through thick and thin together, always supporting each other through the ups and downs of life. So when Amber found out that Emma was going to marry her crush, Ethan, it felt like a dagger had been driven straight into her heart.
Noah, Emma's brother, had spilled the beans to Amber about the arranged marriage, and now she couldn't stop thinking about what could have been. As they walked along the beach, Amber couldn't help but feel a sense of melancholy wash over her. The sun was setting, casting a warm orange glow over the water, but Amber hardly noticed it.
Noah noticed how down Amber was feeling and decided to try and cheer her up. He suggested they go down to the water and play some of the water sports that were available. At first, Amber was hesitant. She didn't feel like doing anything, let alone playing around in the water. But Noah persisted, and eventually, she relented.
