Kaetalita, that's a strange name.A Chapter by SuicidePact.July 20th 1989
Today me and Tera surfed the waves together, It was as though there was a silent competition going on, and i still don't know who's the winner. afterward we waded upon the waters surface, sitting on our boards, legs dangled in the cool waters. We were talking and talking, just like old friends, like we had known eachother forever. Don't get me wrong I'm still angry at him for invading my land, but at times I'm just lonely and Tera's always there, I need someone to talk to.
"So, do you go to school around here?" he asks me. "No, after a while Dad got sick of picking me up from the principals office, so I've been home schooled for most of my life." "Smart move." "Hey!" I scoop up the water and fling it across at him, but it's definately hard to use this method of annoyance on a surfer, we love the water. "Do you know many of the locals?" Another question, man he is curious. "Tera, I know those who are worth knowing." "Even me?" "Sure, even you." I guess he had me there. "Shucks, thanks Kat." "Kaetalita" I correct him. "Kaetalita, You have such a beautiful name, it's unique, haven't heard it before." "My Mother made it up. She wanted to call me Katey, But Dad has his heart set on Lalita, after his grandmother, My name was a compromise." "Katey seems so plain" "She had her heart set out on leaving this place, she hated it here, hated all the traditions, hated the island, but she never made it out." Hot tears were starting to form in my eyes, but there was no way I was letting myself cry in front of this bafoon. "I miss my Mum too." he whispers, well i thought it was a whisper, the wind started to pick up and the sound was drained out, we started to paddle into shore, where we talked some more.
I was home later than usual, My father was already asleep on the couch, so I switched off the television and went off to bed. © 2012 SuicidePact.Featured Review
