Jin hyung takes a break from swimming midway going back to his sister. He got the thing his niece needs. Their dad hands it to him right away after he tells him what happened to his grandchild

His hand holding a small pouch feeling the necklace inside of it. His string bag hangs in his shoulders since he left the palace but now that the waves is getting bigger and the current becomes stronger he holds it tightly making sure he still has it

He starts swimming again this time determined to only take a rest on his sister's place. Good thing he has broad shoulders and strongs fins, he can swims miles in a single wave of his tail

The light of the sun is becoming clearer meaning he's near the surface, he raises his hands that pop out of the water feeling the air above it

"At last...Land!"
He sighs tired looking at the nearest shore, he's still far from their rest house but he knows his sister is waiting for him. He has their only hope for Nerina to have a normal life on land

He starts to swim again till a yacht comes closer to him and a voice shouting his name

"Jin hyung!"
Taehyung shouts on top of her lungs waving both hands up in the air. Jungkook is holding his wife on the waist because Taehyung is standing at the railing in front of the cockpit

"Jin hyung! Here!"
She shouts excited till all his nephews come out hearing their mother calling their uncle in the water. The twins jump in the sea to meet him half way

"Did you have it?"
Hyacinth is the first one reaches him eyes searching for it

"Yes of course, haven't you has trust in your Uncle?" Jin feels proud that he could help them

"Let me see, let me see!"
Lily says showing herself just in front of him from under water

"No.. none of you should touch it.. it only intended to your sister or else you will lose your ability to swim for a week"

"ability to swim? But I just want to look at it"
Lily defense insisting to be the first one to see it

"alright but first let me get inside on your yacht.. your handsome uncle is so tired by now"

He throws both arms on them and let them help him get inside of it, Taehyung greet her brother embracing him even she got wet and get his pouch before he hands it to her

She scoop it inside feeling the smoothness of the stone that hangs in a simple chain

"I have seen this in one of Mom's jeweleries.. I thought it's just a plain accessories"

"Father said you just make her wear it and even if she gets wet in the rain, she will never have to worry that she will have her tail"

"It's shines beautifully"
Lily can't help it but to touch it and in an instant her fins turns into a pair of legs, Hyacinth throws a robe on her

"I told you not to touch it!"
Jin scolds his niece telling her the effects of the amulet to their kinds

"But... You mean Mom's lost her ability to have her tail too? She's holding it now"
She pouts standing up with a robe over her shoulder

"She's a pure mermaid.. it doesn't affects us"
Jin lays in a folding bed enjoying the heat of the morning sun. He's sunbathing unbothered of their surroundings. He knows that place is safe for them

He turns his head looking at his brother in law, he winks at him. His tail is in full display

Taehyung notices it and shifts her eyes on them

" What's wrong? Is there something I should know?"

"None"
"None!"

Both of them answers her with wide eyes and Taehyung has her suspicion. She crosses her arms facing her husband
