On Saturday morning, the boys woke up early and jumped on Stanton, waking him up, too. They insisted they go to Waikiki Beach. Johnny pushed the hardest and Stanton knew Mathew had put him up to it. Saturdays on Waikiki had the largest groups of young women gathered. Mathew would go with his friends, and Johnny would try and tag along. Once he realized they were chasing girls rather than actually surfing, he would come back to his father and they would spend the day together.

Stanton had a shower, a ritual he needed in the morning, despite the fact that he would have to take one after the beach anyhow, and then dressed in surfing shorts and a T-shirt. He made breakfast for the boys and ate with them. They talked about school and things that were going on in their lives.

As they drove down to the beach, Mathew wore sunglasses and sat in the passenger seat. Trying his hardest to appear older than he was. He forced Stanton to blare a song on Pandora by someone called Lil Wayne. Stanton listened to it until he used profanity and then turned it to the One Direction station. Mathew pretended to vomit into the center console.

Waikiki Beach was packed though it wasn’t even nine o’clock yet. Stanton found parking nearby and they retrieved the three surfboards out of the back. They all went to the bathrooms and changed into their wetsuits, but before Stanton could even suggest they try and grab a set, Mathew said he was leaving with his friends.

“Stay close,” Stanton said.

“I will.”

“And no frontside airs. It’s windy today.”

“Alright,” Mathew groaned.

“I’m serious, Matty.”

“I said alright.”

Stanton watched him go with his friends. Their surfboards were essentially just decoration. They hadn’t discovered the beauty of the ocean yet. Of connecting with something greater than yourself. For them, it was an exercise in getting girls.

“I’ll come with you, Daddy.”

Stanton tousled his youngest son’s hair. “I know, buddy. Well, let’s grab a set before it gets too windy.”
