The boy went ahead with the dog, trudging across the sand, maintaining the same lethargic pace. She watched them go. And as she rinsed the sand from the board, she felt restored, somehow lighter. She wanted her old life back, just the two of them, before all the drama. But it wasn't possible. So she'd have to make do with moments like these: perfect and fleeting. Samantha Wood
About This Quote

“The boy went ahead with the dog, trudging across the sand, maintaining the same lethargic pace” refers to a boy having a dog. The boy is not very active or motivated, he is lying on the board and looks like he would more than likely be there for a while. His mother is washing the board and looks calm and happy as she does so. She is still happy with her son but realizes it may be best if they go their separate ways.
