THE RAISING STORM ⛈
The wind blew strongly against her face, Cleo and Ruth sat on the sand watching the raising and crashing waves, the silent between them said all they couldn't say, Ruth looked at Cleo as she played with her engagement ring, she was really happy that Hugh and her were close enough to taking the next step, she couldn't wait for the wedding "Something is wrong" Cleo said looking at the sea with so much consign, it seemed she could feel it too, maybe she could "Everyone can feel it" "The wind doesn't blow right again, Ruth I fear something terrible is about to happen... I need you to give me your word that you will do everything within your power to be safe and alive..." "Cleo..." "Promise Ruth" The fear in Cleo's eyes scared her to death, she nodded and held her trembling hand "I promise" "I love you ❤️ Ruth" "I love 💗 you so much Cleo, I don't know where I would have been without you.. Or what would have become of me" "Awww you flatter" The sky grew darker by the second "We should head back... I fear a storm is coming" "This is summer, this kind of storm ☔️ is rare" Ruth said and looked at the troubled sea one more time before getting up and walking away with Cleo "Wait..." "What?" "Did you hear that?" Cleo asked, Ruth focused her ears and she heard it, someone was calling her name, she turned and saw Dorothy running towards her "Dorothy" She stopped in front of them trying to catch her breath "What's wrong?" Cleo asked touching her shoulder "I found someone in the water, he's pale and weak and very naked" "What? Where?" They followed her and ran to the spot, Dorothy had managed to drag him out of the water, yes he was naked and looking half dead, Cleo went in one knee and touched his neck "There's a pulse" Rain poured down on them heavily "We can't take him to the hospital 🏥 in this storm ⛈, let's get him inside" They managed to get him into Dorothy's apartment, since hers was closer than Ruth, they put him to bed and managed to revive him, they forced him to sip hot soup 🥣 and he slept back. They stayed in Dorothy's house because the storm lasted all night, the man looked better before morning, Ruth was almost sure he was a merman, she didn't leave his side, if he was one of them, it would be dangerous to leave Dorothy alone with him. Early the next morning he woke up, Ruth was already awake, she observed him carefully, he was really good looking, for some reason she wanted to touch him, a strange feeling over came her. She didn't known why she felt this way. "Hey" She said to him softly, he had bright Emerald Green eyes, his eyes were already a complete give away, she still didn't want to conclude immediately so she sat beside him on the bed and made a soft Dolphin 🐬 like sound, his eyes brightened up, he understood her. "What is your name friend?" "Yeon" "Yeon.. how did you end up on the shore, you're a long way from home" "Yes... I don't know, something drove me away from the water... I was swimming back to my cave, a whirlpool caught up with me, by the time it cleared I found myself in this waters, I was weak and drained and for the first time, the waters I grew up in felt different and scary, I summon my last strength to swim to the surface and transform..." "That must have been terrible for you Yeon" "It is and it was" Ruth sigh, she had to go back and figure out what was going on, if the sea was now pushing merfolks away she needed to know why "Yeon, it will be alright, we will return back home together" "Thank you..." "Ruth and this is Cleo" "Thank you Ruth and Cleo"
