I walked over to Cabin 3 and stopped. I prefer to just sleep at the beach. Why I'm here? What do they want from me? I don't belong anywhere at all. I turned around to look at the unclaimed cabin one last time. It's pretty empty now since there are no campers that are unclaimed. I will miss talking to my temporary cabinmates. I know I slept in that cabin for one day, but it was worth it.

"Goodbye, I will miss you," I whispered and faced Cabin 3 again.

I opened the door and saw Percy wearing his blue pajamas with a pinch of red. Seriously, they need to add other colors in this cabin. How about trying to keep the cabin Ocean-related? Poseidon is the god of the seas for crying out loud.

"Hey Olivia, Welcome to Poseidon's Cabin," Percy said

"Uhh... Thanks," I said while putting my stuff down.

"Since we have a few minutes before curfew, I guess we should try to get to know each other better." He said

"Yeah, I agree with you," I said

The room was silent and getting a bit awkward until Percy started talking again.

"I just wanted to say sorry for leaving you and Isabella alone. I should've realized that you weren't comfortable. I remember when I felt that way as a new camper." He said sadly

I smiled

"You don't have to put yourself down because of what happened yesterday. It's in the past now. I'll get used to the place beside I have a cousin/ half-brother with me." I said

"Actually, you have another half-brother," Percy said

I was shocked. I can't believe that I have another half-brother.

"Really, Who is he? Where is he? I would like to meet him." I said

"His name is Tyson. He works at my dad's forges. Also, he's a cyclops and a son of Poseidon." He said

A cyclops? I thought a cyclops were evil monsters. I remember in The Odessey that Odysseus had to fight one.

"Aren't cyclops supposed to be evil?" I asked

"No, Tyson is not evil. He is extremely friendly." Percy said

"Oh ok," I said

We both began to laugh.

"Also, I was meaning to ask you, Why do you like to sleep on the beach?" Percy asked

Percy Pov

Olivia is kinda weird. I get that she loves the water and a Daughter of Poseidon, but sleeping on the beach is too much.

"I like to sleep on the beach because it's relaxing. The soothing waves are like a lullaby and comfort me. I miss seeing the creatures in the ocean." She said, " Now it's my turn to ask, Why do you like to eat blue food? Do you have any other hobbies than swimming?"

"I eat blue food because My ex-stepfather said something about blue food doesn't exist. So, my mom and I made a joke about it and continue eating blue food. Canoeing and Swimming are the only things I'm good at than fighting with a sword." I said

"Who's your ex-stepfather?" Olivia asked

"I don't really want to talk about him," I said

"Why? I promise I won't tell anyone. Besides, I know how you feel about stepfathers. They can be good or bad." She said

"What would you know about them?" I asked

"Because I still live with one. Actually, I live with a stepfamily and my mother is the only person I have left. My stepfamily treats me like I'm nothing. They abuse me until I'm battered and bruised." She said
