A mermaids love

-You guys go that way, I’ll distract them.

-No way were leaving you on your own. It goes against the rules.

-I’m the fastest; we have more chances of getting out of here if we separate. Plus Lea is wounded; you have to get her out of here.

They knew that there was no way I was putting Lea in some sort of danger.

-Fine … Thanks.

-Go. (I waited for the four of them to swim away) Clara...

-What?

Her voice was already faint because of the distance.

-Take care of Lea for me, she already lost her parents. Losing a sister will be hard on her.

-What?!? What do you mean …

I had already turned away. I swam as fast as I could, my tail beading the water.

Yes, I’m a mermaid. And I’m in big trouble.
