He cracks a smile, "Indeed, that is my name. What is yours?"

"My name is Rhea".

------------------------------------------------------

For the past few days, I have been enjoying my time with my mum at the beach. Triton took me back to the beach.

Triton was really awkward in the beginning. I think it's because he doesn't know how to deal with me. I'm pretty sure he knows I'm his little sister, his first sister. He really did not have a good relationship with Percy, and now I am the Percy of this world basically.

As soon as Triton and I got back to the beach I spoke to him,

"Thanks, Triton for saving me from drowning." He looks at me amused and shakes his head.

"So where do you live?" I ask him.

"You know you really shouldn't speak to strangers," he replies.

"You aren't really a stranger. You saved me... You look so familiar," I remark.

"Maybe I have one of those faces," he replies quickly.

"Anyway, it doesn't matter. Come let me introduce you to my mum and tell her that you saved me," I reply, "She makes the most delicious cookies."

He was ready to protest when I grabbed his arm and started to drag him to the cabin where my mum was.

Let's just say mum was shocked.

"Hi, mom. I made a friend at the beach, I brought him here," I yell out to wherever she might be in the cabin.

She came into the living room with her glass of water in hand, she took a sip of water as she came towards me, and as soon as she saw Triton, she spits the water into his face from shock.

"Mum!" I yell and laugh in disbelief.

"I'm so sorry about that," my mum says to him.

"All is fine," he replies, wiping the water from his face and waving his hand like it was no big deal.

My mum looks worriedly at me, "How did you meet him?"

"Triton saved me. The current was pulling me under and I couldn't get above water, he came out of nowhere and pulled me up, took me to the beach and I brought him here," I tell her excitedly.

"Really? That's amazing," she says, sounding unenthused. "Rhea, why don't you go make our guest some ice tea?" she suggests but its more of a command.
