You decide that it would be better for you to do the sport that you love, so you decide to take off the towel around your waist, and head out into the water, after taking off your sandals. You dive head first into the water, as you can feel it brush past your face, while wearing the swim trunks that were the right size on you.
The water was relaxing against your body, and of course the surgical mask keeping you from the mermaid virus was waterproof, so you wouldn't be able to get the virus at all. You were in the ocean for about 4 minutes, meaning you had one left. You peek from the water, and noticed that you were far away from the coast guard, where you dived from. You needed to be careful, because the merfolk could catch you by the time the 5th minute passes, so you hurry towards the coast line.
