The pavement passes below as I pedal away. A breeze blows my hair back. The heat surrounds but doesn't bother me. Kat leads the way down the Lakeshore path. The city grows as we get closer and closer.
My body releases. My face relaxes. My lungs expand as I realize I've been holding my breathe most of the day.
A smile sweeps across my face. The sand tickles my feet as I slip my shoes off and walk to the water. Cold water rushes around my feet.
Kat's and my voice mingle together in the chatter of friendship. My heart is light and full.
