Hawaii Life

one

I was out surfing with my older sister, Katina. We sat on our boards listening. We waited for what seemed like forever on our boards feeling the waves start to form beneath us. I waited and waited for the perfect wave. I felt it coming. This tingling sensation in your stomach. I could feel a good wave for. I guess Katina felt it too because we both opened our eyes and looked at each other.

She nodded letting me know that we would start paddling. I laid on my board and I could feel the wax on my board press against my bare stomach. I looked over the tip of my board and saw the horizon. My watch read 6:54 so the sun was just beginning to rise. I could see my wave forming beyond where I was.

I spun around on my board and started paddling. I could feel the wave getting closer and I started paddling harder. The wave was right behind me. I pushed down on my board and popped up. I landed gracefully on my feet and maintained my balance. I looked over to my right and saw Katina surfing the wave right beside me. The wave started to form into a tube so I ducked my head under before it fell around me like a cascade. I exited the tube and shifted my weight forwards and performed my aerial on the wave. I completed my trick and continued to ride the wave to the shore.

I hopped off my board and walked onto the sand where Katina was holding her board.

"Nice aerial Kamila. It's so clean now."

"Thank's Kat i've been working so hard on it." I replied to her compliment.

"Let's get back to the house before our guest's arrive Kam."

"Good idea before Seth flips." We laughed and walked down the path to the house. Seth is my older brother and Katina's younger brother. I stepped into our outdoor shower to wash off the sand and salt of the ocean. I stepped out of the shower and grabbed a towel. I dried myself and walked into the house.

Seth was cutting up pineapple and making pancakes, which is what we usually eat for breakfast here on the island. I kissed his cheek and wrapped him into a hug, like I do every morning.

"Hey Kam," He said.

"Hey, is breakfast almost ready?"

"Yes but we are not eating until the boys arrive, now go change out your bathing suit." I nodded and headed into my room. I walked up the three flights of stairs and walked into my white room. My room had white walls and wooden floors. I hap a blue tapestry hung above my king size bed. My room had an entire wall turned into a window so I could see the beautiful island that I live on.

I pranced over to my wooden dresser that was covered in surfing stickers. I took out a gray tank top that had Roxy written across it in white letters. I took out some white denim shorts and slipped them on. I didn't bother brushing my hair so I just threw it into a messy top knot.

Once I was satisfied with my appearance I grabbed my phone and walked back downstairs. When I got downstairs I sat on top of the kitchen counter and scrolled through Instagram.

"You excited to meet our guests?" Seth asked me.

"I guess. How old are they?"

"The oldest is 20 years old and the youngest is the same age as you." Katina answered.

"Cool." Just as I said that there was someone knocking on the door.
