The Day of the Wave
“There's an older couple going with them. I think they're staying in one of the posh resorts up the beach. 'What are you thinking?' Sasi says, swigging from her can of Fanta opposite me at the blue and white painted table. I shrug, take a sip of my canned Aloe Vera - which Ben says is good for a hangover. I refused the beer. 'I'm thinking how I really don't want to be here, but I'm going to make myself stay anyway, probably because I'm stupid.' 'Because of Kalaya?' she asks. 'You scared she co...me back?' 'No.' Sasi taps her can on the table. I know she's Kalaya's friend, but I'm speaking the truth. 'Because this is right where I was the last time I watched Ben go for a dive,' I tell her. 'And it didn't turn out all that well.' Somehow Ben's daytime dives are easier to deal with than the thought of him going down there in the darkness tonight. Even though the setting sun is splaying on the ocean in awesome tangerine sparkles now, I know it will soon be black and it will swallow him. I don't know how he does it at all, and he still hasn't told me what happened out there, on that day.MoreLess
