Cheito balanced himself one foot on the boat's gunwale, the
other on the engine cover. He slowly wound his line onto his hand reel to check
his bait. He looked over his shoulder and chatted with his friend Yeyo as he did so.
He turned back to the water, saw his bait, and swimming lazily behind it an 8
foot long nurse shark. Surprised, he jumped backwards into the boat and reeled
in faster. He and his friend watched the shark swim by and quietly disappear
into the deep.
