Sherman watched her go, her long legs swaying in his view.

Sherman slightly furrowed his brow.

As she reached the shore, she noticed Sherman lying on a beach lounge chair, eyes gently closed, seemingly asleep.

A bright red rosary was clutched in his hand, its tassel winding through his fingers, accentuating his already pale skin, making it appear almost translucent under the shade of the beach umbrella. He seemed to exude a mix of austerity and allure, seemingly unapproachable, yet utterly captivating.
