The sky seemed to engulf the sea as it spread right across the horizon. The sea was calm, almost sinisterly so. A little further along the coast, where the pebbles became sand, a man was jogging. This man could always be seen jogging so early in the morning, all year round; if anyone was ever around to see him, that is. He liked to be the first to spoil the unadulterated sand and to look out over the empty vastness of the sea. But this day the water was not as clear as he had expected it to be. Today it was interrupted by a small vessel that seemed to be floating very easily upon its surface. The man stopped jogging and looked out at what looked like a rowing boat. It must have come free from the dock during the storm, he thought. And even as he watched it for that very short moment, it already looked much larger than when he had first laid eyes on it. It was coming closer to shore. The man walked into the water and waited until it was close enough for him to pull out onto the sand. He grabbed it and dragged it back to shore, but only when it was firmly on the sand did he take a look inside. And to his great surprise, the boat had a passenger. A little girl was curled up on the floor of the boat, fast asleep.
