Ella didn’t even knock properly before walking in. “Anna, get up. I have news.”I didn’t move from where I was lying. “If it’s not food, I don’t care.” I was really really hungry, I hadn't had something to eat that morning, laziness.“It’s better than food,” she said, dropping her bag. I finally looked at her. “That’s a lie already.” “We’re going swimming this weekend.”I blinked once. Then sat up slowly. “Who is we?” She pointed between us. “Don’t act like you don’t know.” I stared at her for a second, then laughed. “Oh, you’re serious.”“Very.” I shook my head, still smiling. “Ella, I don’t swim.” “So?” she said. “You’ll learn.”“With who? You?” I asked.“Yes,” she said confidently. “That’s even worse,” I replied. “You’ll leave me in the deep end and go and start doing TikTok.” She gasped. “I would never!”“You would,” I said, laughing. “You’ll forget I exist the moment water touches your body.”
