The storm was over

They wanted to play in the rain

They were trying to catch the dog who ran away

It was the eye of the storm

Stood frozen and let it take him too

Stood frozen and saw his friend inside the wave

Ran back to the house crying

Dove into the wave to save his friend

He gets drunk and tries to forget

He holds a ceremony for him

He throws away all K's pictures

He moves away from the beach 

His father died of cancer and left him their family home

His brother sent him a box full of K's paintings

His nightmares got worse and he had to go back

His job transferred him to that area

"It looked like part of a gigantic rug had been yanked by someone at the other end of the earth."

"I remember hearing my heart pound with incredible clarity."

"‘It was the biggest wave I had ever seen in my life,’ he said. ‘A strange wave. An absolute giant.’"

"From far above my head it bgan to fall, losing its shape, like a brick wall slowly crumbling."

They get angry and  blame the narrator

They are heartbroken and lock themselves in their house constantly

They are heartbroken and search for their son on the beach still

They get angry and move away from the ocean
