Synopsis
Two dive buddies enjoy a great dive in the Dutch waterway, the “Oosterschelde”. When they decide to make a second dive they do not realize some things do not get better... Beware the unexpected.

Inspiration

Even though I haven't practiced diving lately, I really loved to go scuba diving in my twenties. Got qualified for my two star CMAS diving certificate along time ago (*). Those were the days. making a dive, get into your car still wearing your wet suit and move on to the next location to make another dive.
We did realize things might go wrong. We heard stories from other divers...
But as always, you think it will not happen to you.

Note: this story was originally written in Dutch, unfortunately without making a note of the date, but it certainly was 'somewhere' in 1989. Adapted, rewritten, translated into English and eventually (adapted again) retranslated into Dutch. Maybe I should compare the different versions some day... try to find the seven differences...
(*) Had to find my old divelog to check the date. Passed the 2** CMAS exams on July 1, 1990.
