"I don't know." Why does it seem like the surf that's lapping gently at his ankles is also roaring in his ears?
"I mean, you're only eighteen or three or nineteen or a hundred or whatever--" Once the words start rolling out of his mouth, it's like he is eighteen again, with the complete lack of an off-switch or speed-control. "--and you've got this whole career thing ahead of you and maybe it's too soon or something, but the thing is, my thing is, that for the first time in my life I do know what I want. Now, later, whenever, it's not gonna change."
