Once we got closer, we discovered two people floating about 400 meters out. Waiting for help wasn't a choice. I didn't think twice about trying to save them. When we finally reached them 10 minutes later, they were almost lifeless, pale and motionless. We could tell they were still alive from their small breaths. We put them on our boards, patted their faces to wake them up, telling them to be strong, all the while swimming hard to keep ourselves afloat.
Thirty minutes later, I began to feel a bit afraid and tired. Finally, a small boat with three lifeguards headed towards us. When the boat pulled up, we helped push the couple on board, only to be told that there was no room for us. It seemed pretty unprofessional (不专业的) to leave us there—we were a couple of miles from the shore.
I didn't feel like a hero. I'm sure that anyone who could swim would have done the same thing.
