It's strange standing here offering a decent board to a guy I just met. It's the best possibility of the day knowing he seems interested. I shrug my shoulders slightly. Tomorrow is a busy surf day, so maybe the shops aren't busy- maybe he'd be willing to go into the square and look. "We can go into the shops if you'd like. Maybe you can find a nice board there." I've never been one to really teach people about surfing because I learned from a young age, but it doesn't hurt to try. I take a deep breath before looking around the room again. I look at my board sitting on the table as a huge grin grows wider and wider. Smiling is easy when my mind wonders free, but my mind can suddenly change taking me towards the death of my parents. I was so young, so innocent, I didn't know what death really was. "It might not be that busy today, but we can always go take a look."
Why would anyone want me to teach them to surf? I'm just a peasant in the world. Normally the house is booming right now, but knowing that everyone is off doing their down thing makes my life easier. I could use this time to prepare a meal for them all, but someone wants me to be a teacher. It's hard knowing that I have so much to do before the big surf day tomorrow- I've been waiting since the last day passed. I run my hand along my chin before moving my hand towards my hair. I'm dying for the water to pour upon it. I'm dying for everything to happen because it's the way of life. It's all I know- and it's the best thing in the world.
My eyes flash around the room today looking at my board and looking at the board he's holding. Nothing isn't easy around here, and I'm glad for the chance to talk to someone, but I don't want to push him away. It's an amazing feeling knowing that someone wants to be interested in what I know. I take a small step backwards before looking at him again. He seems like one that would be good at surfing, but I can never really tell until we are riding the waves. I'm always looking for large waves, but it's best to start small. "What do you say about going to look for a board?" It doesn't have to be the best board, but any board will work as long as it's one that he likes because he's the one that will be riding it.
