Cycle into Dark

The water was cold. Ron sat on a big rock with his one leg in a pothole and other leg out in soft flowing water. Suddenly he felt a tug in his left muscle and saw bubbles in the pothole. The gentle ripples turned into a wave encircling his leg, he felt a sudden urge to free it out. Nathan saw Ron standing over a slippery steep ending ‘What was he doing? ’Ron made another grab. Nathan realised the perpetual cycle had started again.
