She shuffled forward, almost sideways, caught in the narrow water-filled fissure in the cave.
Suddenly, someone pushed her feet from behind.
It was third brother, without a doubt.
She pushed with all her might, and he pushed from behind, yet she remained stuck in the fissure, unable to move.
She struggled, twisting her body fiercely as he pushed hard from behind.
Her body was rubbed raw, but she finally squeezed through that one meter of the narrow gap.
No sooner had she cleared the gap than the water outside the fissure swept her out another two meters.
She had kept hold of the waist belt all along, and now she pulled the clothes attached to it out with her.
She immediately swam back and saw third brother inside the cave wall just past the narrow gap, waving at her, signaling her to swim away quickly.
Looking at that slender fissure, even she had to turn sideways, be pushed, and use brute force to squeeze through.
She was scratched and stuck.
