Zeb was struggling himself to stay on the surfboard. The waters were roiling, dragging his body left and right. He paddled about half a mile out from the pier. That’s when he saw who was drowning: two young girls.
Imminent Danger
Zeb knew the girls couldn’t have been older than 13 or 14. They were caught in the rip current. The older one was conscious, but the younger one didn’t seem to be breathing.
