Duh!
For the last time, there is always vapor present
As the water is thrown, the droplets each have their own surface area.
At any given temperature, the air/water interface allows the liquid and vapor to come to equilibrium. So there is a boundary layer of vapor around each unit mass of water!
You're grading someone else when this wholly established principle of physical science completely eludes you.
I'm done trying to help the unteachable!
