However, Yolanda Bardot seemed dead, offering no response.
Fortunately, the winds and waves were relatively calm at the moment.
Without wasting much time, Dilbert Walker managed to bring her ashore.
Back on the shore.
With substantial experience, he first cleared her mouth, nose, and ears of seaweed, sand, and other debris.
Next, he placed his ear on her chest and could hear her heart, still beating strongly.
The tense expression on his face relaxed significantly.
Then, kneeling on one knee and bending the other, he positioned Yolanda Bardot so that her head naturally hung over his bent leg.
Lastly, he used one hand to pat her back moderately to evacuate the water from her body.
Soon, stickiness of the seawater expelled from Yolanda's mouth and throat flowed down her chin and dripped onto the sandy beach...
Two minutes passed.
The water had been mostly expelled.
He then slowly laid her flat on the sandy beach, waiting for her to regain consciousness...
