Chapter 345: Uncertainty
Clifford watched as Kelly confidently slipped off her dress, revealing a cute pink one-piece swimsuit that suited her perfectly. Without hesitation, she sprinted toward the water, her excitement palpable.
When she realized he wasn’t following, she stopped abruptly, turning back to him with a playful frown.
"Come on! Let’s swim!" Kelly called out, waving at him eagerly.
Clifford chuckled at her enthusiasm. With a smile, he quickly removed his shirt and pants, leaving himself in a pair of swim trunks.
"Come on, slowpoke!" Kelly called out again, splashing water his way as Clifford approached.
"I’m coming, I’m coming," he replied with a playful grin, finally stepping into the cool water.
Then, without another moment’s hesitation, he dashed after her.
Kelly squealed with laughter as she saw him coming, immediately breaking into a playful run toward the deeper water. "Catch me if you can!" she teased, her giggles floating through the air.
Clifford’s grin widened as he gave chase. When Clifford tried to grab her, she darted away, kicking up a small wave that splashed over his chest. "Too slow!" she teased, her voice lilting with delight.
