Nadia’s POV

I noticed her staring at my chest when I rolled over.

Oh, right, I thought. I forgot humans don’t have gills! That’s why she’s staring!

“You’re not used to that, huh?” I said knowingly. “I know what you’re thinking, and, yes you can touch them.”

“Erm…what?” She frowned. “O…okay…”

I tugged at her skirt, motioning for her to sit down.

When she was seated next to me, I took her hand and put it at the top of my gills.

 “It’s okay, they’re not going to break or anything. They’re like…having extra mouths!”
