The human world has been difficult for me to live in. I needed water at all times to stay hydrated. The pool water was not enough for me. I needed the ocean.
Yang Mi told me scary stories about mermaids who came to land. Some were caught by humans. They were sold to the scientists who used them for experiments.
I asked her how she would react if she found out that Li Lian was merman. Of course, like always Yang Mi was going to support her brother. Its was a do or die thing for her.
I wailed my tail again and dived deep, until I reached the bottom of the pool. Its was not as deep as the ocean; where I came from. Yang Mi was scared of water. She always put a swim ring on.
I heard some noise coming from the top. Quickly, I rushed up to see what caused it. There he was, Li Lian!
