Chapter 21: Hang ten
Not long after getting takeaway noodles, and taking a mid-afternoon nap wrapped up in Asher’s arms, they set out to the beach about a half hour before sunset.
“Now, people say you can only surf in the morning, but that’s just not true. Sunset is another great time to go, so don’t worry,” the handsome surfer pointed out as they approached the surf equipment shack.
Seeley peeked into the room and saw at least thirty surfboards of all different lengths, widths, and shapes. Some had as many as five fins on them as well.
“I’m not worried about the waves… Wait, how many of these are yours?” she asked, gazing along the wall.
“Believe it or not, when I was sponsored, I used to have…twenty?” Asher began to count on his fingers.
“Twenty?!”
“Yeah, I won’t bore you with the details, but I had a lot of different boards and fin setups for different conditions and breaks…but now I just have seven. I gonna just take this fish out,” Asher announced, picking a shorter board.
