The year I turn ten,…



The year I turned ten, there were signs warning of riptide. The wind was calm, the sky blue and the water placid as glass. It was early in the day and there were a few people wading in the water and farther down the beach, kids splashing around in a shallow area. Locals with shoe-leather skin walked up and down the beach, and tourists did the seaside stoop hunting shells. Gulls soared effortlessly against the warm gulf breeze and the buzzing of jet skis through the gulf added a grating tension. At the shore’s edge, I watched fish darting in unison below the surface. My parents said not to go in beyond my waist. They watched me from shore while sneaking sips of Birra Moretti1 and rubbing lotion on their skin while my older brother followed bikinis up and down the beach. I stood in the cool water (waving at my parents) while the undertow tugged at my ankles, pulling me deeper into the Gulf. When the surface reached my neck, I stepped forward realizing I was in a fight. My father stood abruptly before I lost sight of him, my feet swept away.
