At the swimming pool.
The second child was wearing a delicate floral swimming dress, tiptoeing continuously by the poolside, her little face filled with urgency and a hint of whining in her voice: "Wait for me! Slow down a bit!"
Anyone who saw her eager look would find her adorable.
The coach spotted her anxious demeanor from a distance, a gentle smile appeared at the corner of his lips, and with powerful arms, he swiftly swam over and held her securely into the water.
As soon as she touched the cool water, she instantly transformed into an agile little duckling, her hands and feet paddling joyfully, dog-paddling towards her older sibling.
A beaming smile spread across her face as she excitedly shouted, "I'm coming! Wow, this is so much fun!"
The crisp sound of her laughter echoed through the swimming pool.
Nearby, the third child's eyes revealed a hint of longing, but the fear in his eyes was also evident.
