Convictions
“Thud! Splash!“Jen-nie!” Something hard struck Jennie’s arm with another splash. Groggily she opened her eyes to bright sunlight. She clasped a hand over her face, squinting from the glare. Water rushed around her as she tilted. She immediately recalled she was on a chunk of wood in the middle of the ocean. Shipwrecked. Lifting her head carefully, she saw Alice and Sarah a few yards away, sitting on a portion of the bow. Alice had a short piece of wood in her hands, which was aimed Jennie’s way.“We roused you, at last!” Blinking in disbelief, Jennie croaked, “You’re alive! Thank God!” Her mouth was so dry, she couldn’t swallow.Cautiously, Jennie sat up. The sun was warm, but she was chilled right through and couldn’t stop shivering. At least she wasn’t alone any more.“We’re so happy we found you!” Sarah shouted. “Are you both all right?” Jennie took in the dark gash that had opened up again down Sarah’s cheek. “A few bumps and bruises, but fine,” Sarah shouted again.
