As he continued about his stroll throughout the water, he could feel the rolling waves crash upon him.

Oh no, poor little critter.
Talk about flash fiction, what a quick set up and twist ending! Took a couple reads but I realized this was narrated by something that got squished by a human... great twist in perspective! Was unexpected and fun to figure out!
Oh my GOSH. This is incredibly heart-wrenching. Way to move mountains with so few words!! 👏🙂
