Skimmed

I sat down by the edge of the lake, catching my breath, the hike being slightly longer than I'd anticipated.


I picked up a rock as I drank from my water bottle, then skimmed the stone across the lake's surface, losing track of it quickly.


I was halfway through my trail mix when the rock skimmed off the lake and landed at my feet.


It looked like my rock, but I couldn't hear or see anyone around. After a moment, I picked it up and threw it again.


Nothing happened till I got up to leave, then it hit me.
