I just want to enjoy this morning. I plan on rowing and watching the sunrise in the middle of the sea.

This is the first time since I got here in my hometown that I feel relaxed. For some reason, I feel like grandma is safe. I'm not saying I trust Vegas. I'm just saying I know he will not try anything bad right now.

I may be foolish but I feel like grandma could be at his house right now teaching him how to cook. I don't know since when and I don't know why but they seem to hang out a lot. Right now Vegas feels more like my rival when it comes to grandma than my enemy in life. Damn you Vegas, you grandma thief!

I drag my inflatable boat to the sea. I take off my clothes, leaving only my trunks and put my clothes on the boat before I push it to deeper waters to avoid my clothes getting wet.

I finally get to go to deeper waters and I climb up. Finally some time to myself without worrying about---

"VEGAS!"

I yelled out when I see the evil monster running towards me. Damn it! It's Four in the morning why can't he just leave me alone?!

I try to paddle as fast as I can to avoid him but he was faster. He grabbed the end of the boat and almost flew to hop on. My little boat almost tipped off. Damn, Vegas I might get me into an accident before I see the sunrise. The dimlight on the port made me see his grinning face--- or is that a grimace?

"Hurry, Pete! Hurry up and go as fast as you can. They're coming for us!" What?  who? What Vegas said made me alert and paddle faster. He laid down at the floor of the boat and bent his body to fit like he was hiding. Shia! Who is after us? I let go of all my thoughts and paddled fast until I felt like we were in the middle of the ocean like in cartoons when they row so fast they cross the Pacific Ocean.

Vegas sits up and I stop paddling.

I point the small flashlight I bought to his face.

"Who is after us? Why did we run away, Vegas?" I try to look around to find anything sharp at least for pretection but there is nothing. Fuck!

"Who was chasing you?" I was suspecting as I ask him.

"My conscience" he said

"Fuck you."

I said soft enough to be heard by only me. He's still a young master, Pete! Don't be angry

"Would you like to?" He said playfully. Damn he heard me. He scanned my body and I suddenly feel self-conscious. Damn it! I quickly wear my clothes.

"C'mon, Pete. This looks like a good location" he starts to put two fingers on my arm and start a walking finger gesture moving up to my shoulders.

If I drown and kill him here, would anyone suspect me or would it just look like he drowned from a morning swim?

I just looked at him. Die, you asshole!

"Can you take a break from thinking murderous things about me all the time?" Vegas says

I don't know. Can you stop thinking about perverted things all the time?

"Fair point. I don't think I can" He smiles

Fuck it! Did I say that out loud? His answer just gave me chills down my spine!

I faintly see a smirk with the help of the flashlight slightly touching his face.

"Whatever, let's just wait until the sunrise" I say.

When I go out during the day, he's there. When I go out at night, he's also there, when he goes missing at dawn, my grandma makes me look  for him. I was on a vacation to get away from him but why---
