Chris's sudden exclamation was a shock to me, I didn't understand what made him exclaim like that.
" Why did you shout?." Greg asked turning to Chris.
" Is your mom a mermaid?." Chris asked.
" No, but my grandmother was. May her soul rest in Perfect Peace." I said as I crossed my hands around my chest.
" So why did you exclaim like that.?" Greg asked.
" My mom is also a mermaid , so it means we are family." Chris said.
"You scared me bad, why would you shout loud." Greg was now pissed off.
" I'm sorry....." Chris couldn't complete his words when the door swung open.
" We are back!." Sophie said as she walked in followed by kat.
" What have you guys been up to?." Sophie asked.
" Leonor is a mermaid and Chris's mom is also a mermaid so they are family. " kat said and I was surprised she knew.
" Kat, how many times have I told you to stop putting your spell on me, so that you can listen to my conversations." Chris said.
" No, I didn't put it on you. I put it on Greg." Kat said.
" Let's stop messing around and go home, Leonor get into the bathroom and change your clothes into this." Sophie said handing me the clothe they got for me.
" Thanks." I said and took the clothes from her and went into the bathroom.
I was so happy my dreams were close to fulfillment. I had new friends, a place to stay and a free life but I still wanted to learn about the elemental and adept magic.
When I was done I came out and walked to my new friends.
" Wow, you look more beautiful than Sophie and kat." Greg teased.
" I can't be jealous if that's what you want me to be. " kat said.
" Yeah, everyone knows that princesses are always beautiful and everyone in this kingdom knows that princess Leonor is beautiful. " Sophie concluded.
" Why'd you have to always be smart. " Greg said looking defeated.
" As Sophie said earlier, let's stop messing around and go home. " Chris said and stood up from the bed as we all walked out of the room while Greg locked the door behind.
We went back to the mansion and I immediately retired to my room while the others all went to theirs. I was so lucky to have found a good set of friends.
They were now like family to me and I wouldn't want to do anything to destroy my new relationship with them. I thought if all I left behind and all I was going to see in the future to come as I dozed off and sleep took over.
