Things water does

I sat at the edge of the creek. The creek said, “Hi, Brooks. What’s up?”

I said, “Hi Creek, nothing, I just wanted to sit with you for a bit.”

The creek said, “Okay.”

We sat quietly for a while, and then I noticed the creek had risen to my feet. Soon I was submerged waist deep.

I said, “Creek, what’s going on?”

The creek said, “What do you mean?”

I kept quiet as the creek rose to my chest.
