“The pool here is so big. I wish I could swim in there.”
Beatrice smiled.
“Why don’t you?”
“They don’t let kids our age take swimming classes.” R said. “We have to wait two more years.”
Beatrice’s smile grew. R immediately regretted telling her about this. She should have known it wasn’t a good idea.
“No.” She said.
“Why not?” Beatrice asked. “No one will know.”
They looked at each other in silence for a moment, before R gave up.
“Okay. Just once!”
“Good! Meet me there at midnight.”
