I saw her start choking on water as she struggled!
The situation was extremely urgent! If I couldn't grab her before the next wave hit, she would definitely be carried further away by the current, and then it would be completely impossible to rescue her.
In that critical moment, a fierce urge suddenly welled up from somewhere… I used the backflowing force to lunge forward, then swam desperately towards Yang Sisi, using both hands and feet…
I felt I had grasped her fingertips, but in the next instant, the waves pushed me away again.
Fighting against the waves was like a mantis trying to stop a chariot; I was already feeling exhausted. But a strong will to survive suddenly gave me a surge of energy. I bit my tongue, followed the backflow, and desperately swam towards Yang Sisi… In the midst of a severe feeling of suffocation, I grabbed Yang Sisi's waist and then pulled her to the surface.
Overwhelmed by fear, she instinctively pushed me into the seawater. Exhausted, I swallowed two large mouthfuls of seawater as well, but dared not push her away. I could only desperately try to evade her pull, searching for a way to rise.
I finally surfaced, and while paddling, I yelled hoarsely in her ear, "Hold on to my waist, don't move, or we'll both die in the sea..."
Yang Sisi finally felt safe and stopped struggling, clinging tightly to my waist. Taking advantage of the next wave, I swam vigorously towards the beach, finally managing to touch solid ground before the current returned!
Yang Sisi also stepped onto the solid ground, and in the end, she dragged me towards the beach!

The sky gradually darkened, and the colorful sunset clouds that had once floated on the horizon seemed to have vaporized, leaving no trace... Only the distant lighthouse shone a guiding light, piercing into the darkest depths...
I only glanced at it before I collapsed... I lay heavily on the beach, listening to my own heartbeat and the sound of the sea breeze rustling through the coconut palms.
Suddenly, a very slight pain appeared in an area of my leg that had been numb, followed by an itchy sensation...
I wasn't that concerned at first, but then it felt like I'd been struck by lightning...
I remember the doctor telling me that when pain and itching return to areas that were previously numb, it's a sign of nerve recovery… This sensation often comes suddenly, just like now!
……\\r\
I suddenly opened my eyes, first with a surge of elation, then my mind went blank, and I just stared blankly at the black sky…
Yang Sisi looked at me with a horrified expression; she didn't know why I had suddenly acted this way!
