[More unforgiving!? What is this guy doing, bungee jumping without rope!? Wait, she can't focus on that- if she doesn't follow the instructions, she'll end up making a fool of herself in front of him! That's not allowed in her book! She grabs the bar of the sail and pulls it towards her, trying to bring her wobble on the board to a minimum.
...and it feels like the worst part is over? Standing up on this thing without falling over is tricky, but once with something to hold on to, even if tricky, it's kind of okay? She even manages a giggle when the wind gets her board float forward- not in the direction she wants, but it's going somewhere, so that's a win! Right?]
This is kind of fun, [she nods frantically when he reminds her to keep her balance centered and she corrects herself immediately. She's still hesitant to get the speed up to nines, but she's balancing this well- for a beginner!]
Wait- what do you mean 'game on'? I can't race you! I can barely stand on this![The fear of going too far and not being able to come back due to sea currents is REAL.
Then again, if he takes off and leaves her in the shallows here, she might panic either way and chase after him (to the best of her ability!).]
