The sun was shining so brightly that it illuminated the
sky with golden beams of light. The
large pool was rectangular in shape with slightly rounded corners and grey
cement surrounding it. I came rushing
out the door in my pink and orange bikini ready to swim. The turquoise-blue
water was as still as could be, desperately waiting for someone to jump
in. “C’mon!” I said waving my hand in
the air, as I summoned my sisters to come swim with me. I felt refreshed when I did a cannonball
directly into the cool water, but not for long.
The smell of chlorine quickly changed to the smell of blood. Without hesitation, I got out of the pool. I felt it trickling down my face and soon the
metallic taste of blood was on my tongue.
I knew my nose was bleeding when I raised my hand and saw red
liquid. I was angry because I couldn’t
swim anymore, but that was shortly resolved when we had a scrumptious dinner
and cookie dough ice cream for dessert.
Oh My, Maggie!! Great description of the setting for your yucky bloody nose!!
