Episode 2

The girl was saved by the Merman who is the King of ocean called David. He is very handsome and kind boy. He knows the existing of human on earth but during his childhood he was told by his ancestors that humans are monsters who kills sea creatures so only they hide their existence to humans. This fear held in bottom of his heart so he didn’t dare to come out of water.

But after a few years who would have known that he fell in love with human girl other than his own genre having beautiful mermaids. But this feeling was not realised by merman yet he remembers the girl face and thinking about the girl.

He saved her and carried her to the sea shore and with care he made her to lie and waited till she gains her consciousness, while turning back he saw the Ellina (girl) face but he wouldn’t dare to wake her up as he doesn’t want her to know about his identity so he left with some kind of sad feeling.

The next day when he was just thinking about the girl whether has she woken up or not, is she safe or not, his friend came to him.

Hey where is your necklace? asked by his friend.

(necklace is the pearl with a thread tied on his neck since from child, it was the memory of his mother who passed away while giving birth to him)

When he found out that it has been missing he searched everywhere but he couldn’t find it.

You have been searching it whole day may be it’s with the girl you were speaking about morning.

He then recalled, may be it will be with her I’ll go find her.

What are you saying? How can you go to land no I won’t let you if anything happens to you, what can I tell to others?

Edward (his friend who is also merman), listen to me you know, you are not only my slave but also my only friend and family. please you do know that pearl is very precious to me said by David to his friend.

Fine, I’ll come with you too I can’t let my king fall into a human trap alone who knows what kind of girl is she.

I think she is very good may be she won’t do any harm to me, she looks so innocent when I was carrying her I felt she was sleeping like a baby.

But Edward how can you come with me, you know that once I go to land my body will change into human form but others can’t do it in our community so only choice left is I should go alone.

Oh, yes I forgot about that, once when you were 5 years old, we were playing and you went to land and after a few moments you got legs as a human but none of us couldn’t change.

Yes, my grandmother told me that my mother has ability to change into human form because of her power not only she but all my ancestors and I’m her only child so I got this power.

So let me go to land and get back my pearl and they both agreed during night.

Hey, I will go to land now, check anyone is there?

No one, go now and return soon.

Once David went to land his tails disappeared he changed into normal form as humans and slowly he started to walk and he found out some strange things that all humans were wearing clothes and he was being *****.

Gosh, what are they wearing if I go like this they think I’m abnormal what I should I do now?

He saw the clothes floating nearby sea shore, he sneakily peeked if there is any people grabbed the clothes and he was not even knowing how to wear them he just put the pant and went to market.

He was feeling bit scared as it was his first time seeing those strange things he completely immersed to see the shopping street and dead fishes were sold at the hotels, just wandering around the area and forgot about the pearl and the girl.

Hey handsome, are you alone? Are you searching for someone asked by the stranger girl.

He just gave cold look to her and turned his back and left.

I searched the girl everywhere but she is not here (in reality all his eyes were on shopping street).

He returned to ocean took that clothes with him to his home.

Edward was waiting for him.

Hey, did you get the pearl, thank god you came back what took you so long?

I didn’t find it, the humans are so different from us and it was not like what our ancestors described about them.

They are wearing something and their languages, I couldn’t understand anything and one girl spoke to me I didn’t understand and left the place.

The land is so big and confusing it’s not like our ocean looks like I should search her again tomorrow.

What again?

Yes, till I find the little girl and get my pearl from her.

David looking at night sky, closed his eyes and telling to himself -Where are you on this earth? Why are you hiding from me? Can’t you come back once again, I want to see you little girl.

On other side, Ellina went back to her city and got into her normal daily routine.

At night even she is staring at the beautiful sky and crescent moon, thinking about the incident.

she took out the pearl and saying to herself why do I feel someone is waiting for me and whenever I see this pearl some blurry image will pop out into my head.

Alvina (her friend) told me that hill where I fell down was so far from sea shore I found on next day how could waves bring me to this far and where did this pearl came from? All I have is only questions.

Should I go back to the sea and check once again and find the answers?
