Wan retaliated with a rapid-fire of splashes sent vaguely in her direction while he kept his head turned away. He hadn't had many chances to swim or play in a clean pool in his life. Plenty of concrete creeks and the Potomac River, but those were hardly 'clean'. The hotel had a pool, too, but he didn't have 'appropriate' swim wear and didn't want to use it and get in trouble. But this? At Christine's place? He was going to take the opportunity given him.
"Give up! I can splash you for longer than you can splash me!"
