The Boy At The House (2)

This has happened:

Dilan, a member of the "Bible Gang", was out on the shore one morning. There he spotted a dinghy that came floating from the sea. I the dinghy there was a boy!

Dilan looks one more time. Yes, it is a boy! Or, rather, a youth. Can he be fifteen maybe? He is wearing worn, a little torn jeans and a yellow, pale T-shirt. And he has long, tousled, curly hair that seems to be full of salt from the sea. And he is just lying there! Dilan doesn't know what to do. He grabs the dinghy and starts to lead it towards towards the shore. At the beach he pulls it up a bit so that it won't float away. Then he bends down and pokes on the boy. He seems to be dead!

Dilan's heart bets fast now. He must find Daniel! Or somebody at least! Daniel is the oldest and the most wise in the Bible Gang, something of a leader. So Dilan starts to run towards Daniel's house, that is at the outskirts of Little Fair.

Once at Daniel's house he walks around it to Daniel's bedroom window and knocks on it. Slighty after a sleepy-looking Daniel sticks out his head.

A couple of minutes later Dilan and Daniel arrive to the dinghy on the shore. Daniel sees the boy. And now he is moving!
