FAIRYTALE LOVE: THE LITTLE MERMAID ; baekji

CHAPTER III

"You really don't remember?" Baekhyun asked again and Eunji shook her head

"Ah right" Baekhyun said as if he realized something; he went to the table and get the necklace.

"This" he said and gave it to Eunji

"What's this?"

"Chorong noona said that she found it with you, that is the only thing you have"

Eunji eyed the necklace. Yes, it's her necklace. She recognized it, but again she lied.

"I still can't remember, maybe this is mine. I don't know" She dramatically shook her head

"Don't force yourself, it's okay. But there is a name written there... Eunji"

"Eunji?"

"I think that's your name"

"My name is Eunji?"

"Well, I think. Oh I have to get back down at the café. I brought food for you, eat that first. I'm coming back later" He said and headed to the door

"Uhm" Eunji called and he stopped walking and looked at her

"Thank you"

He just smiled at her and continued on his way down. The customers were coming in and they were all busy so he went back to his place immediately and tend the orders.

"How is she?" Chorong asked him when she walked to him and handed him the newly washed cups.

"She's already awake" he answered

"Really?!"

"Yeah, I let her eat first"

"Oh that's good, I guess" she said and was about to go back at the kitchen when Baekhyun called again

"Noona"

"Hmm?"

"I guess, she has amnesia" he said and saw Chorong's shock expression

"Well, let's talk about that later"

"Okay"

When Baekhyun left, Eunji looked around the room. It was just a simple room with white paint, a table and a chair beside the bed and a small drawer with a flower vase on top on one side of the room. There was a window beside the bed, on Eunji's right.

"So this is where human lives" She mumbled to herself, and just then she heard her stomach grumbling. She looked at the table and tried to stand, she was nervous at first because it was the first time she's using her feet. Slowly she managed to get her legs off the bed one by one and finally tried to stand, but fell down eventually. She felt pain on her legs, but more of it on her thighs.

"I never knew it's this hard"

She held the chair and the bed for her support and finally sat down on the chair, facing the table she opened up the cloth that covered the food that Baekhyun brought earlier, getting one of the chopsticks, she poked the mysterious thing in front of her.

"Is this human food? How should I eat this?"

After a moment, she started eating using the chopsticks. Oddly. When she finished her food, she slowly went back to bed, still struggling because of her legs. When she finally got to the bed, she opened the window and stared outside. The vast sea can be seen, at the shore, small huts and some lampposts were already lit giving the beach a wonderful view. Some people are walking, chasing each other and some were swimming. The beach was not crowded though.
