Mark sat inside his spacious office with a view of the garden.
He looked at the papers on his mahogany desk.
His financial firm was expanding very rapidly this year.
He felt truly blessed with his wealth and family.
His young wife Victoria was sitting near the pool outside.
She was adjusting her hair in the bright sunlight.
Their baby daughter Lily was resting in her black stroller.
The afternoon seemed completely peaceful and quiet.
Mark poured himself a glass of cold water.
He smiled as he watched his family from the window.
Then he saw Elena walking across the patio tile.
Elena was the house maid who cared for the baby.
She worked hard every day to keep the home clean.
She always carried a gentle and polite smile.
Victoria glanced at Elena with a cold look.
The two women rarely spoke directly to each other.
Mark turned his back to answer a phone call.
A business partner was calling about a big investment deal.
Mark spoke softly into his mobile phone.
He did not notice the movement near the pool.
Victoria pushed her sunglasses up on her head.
She stood very close to the black stroller handle.
The infinity pool stretched out like clear glass.
The water was deep and very cold.
Victoria shifted her weight to one side casually.
Elena stopped near the sliding glass doors.
She watched Victoria's hands move toward the stroller.
Elena felt a sudden chill run down her spine.
She did not understand why Victoria looked so nervous.
Victoria glanced around the quiet yard quickly.
She gave the heavy black stroller a light nudge.
The stroller wheels began rolling down the slope.
Elena gasped loudly as she saw the motion.
The stroller moved faster toward the deep water.
Victoria stepped back and covered her mouth.
She did not reach out to stop it.
Elena dropped her cleaning rag onto the patio.
Her heart started pounding violently inside her chest.
She ran forward with all her strength.
Her shoes skidded across the slippery tile floor.
The stroller hit the edge of the pool.
It tipped over into the water with a splash.
Bubbles rose quickly to the surface.
Elena did not hesitate for a single second.
She sprinted straight toward the blue water.
Her eyes were wide with total horror.
She saw the stroller sinking into the depths.
The cold water opened up as she leapt in.
