Susan was still wading when Harry was at the beach. "Hold on one second," she said. She crouched below the water, pulled a shell from the sea floor, and stood back up. She made it to the beach, she showed Harry the shell. "We can just stay here for awhile," she said staring out at the sea, and glancing at Harry.

Do you believe that life will always let itself be mocked?
Do you think you can slip away a little before midnight in order to avoid this?
Or are you not terrified by it?"
