Suzanne Trent had started her second round, only just getting onto the air cushion when she suddenly stopped, turned around to help Auntie Taylor up, and continued forward.
"Ah, Suzanne!" Olivia Carter, looking at Auntie Taylor, whom Suzanne was helping, was so envious she was about to cry. "Take me with you!"
"I can't help everyone at once. I'll take Auntie Taylor over first!" Suzanne stuck her tongue out at Olivia, who was equally as envious, and Alyssa Taylor, continuing to walk with Auntie Taylor.
In truth, the air cushion was unstable. Suzanne herself could barely maintain a balance point. Now, with an extra person on board, she couldn't maintain her equilibrium, since Auntie Taylor's swaying on the air cushion would throw her off balance.
Eventually Suzanne, with some difficulty, got Auntie Taylor to the finish line. Grace Lewis and Amelia had just started their second round. Alyssa and Olivia had decided not to stand any more, choosing instead to crawl forward.
