The afternoon sun is warm and bright; its warmth emits from the dry bush, carrying the rich smell of mint and the honey scent of white carnations. Kim held hands with Ploy as they walked slowly to where Air Jittaleela was laid to rest. Kim knelt beside her sister’s grave and prayed silently.

“Ploy…” Pie gently called out Ploy before kneeling and lightly laying the forget-me-nots on the grave.

Ploy placed some pink carnations on her mother’s grave and prayed.

“Hello mama, I hope you’re doing well up there with granma and granpa. I also like you to meet P’Pie, she’s very beautiful like you mama. I think Pa likes her, I hope she can be Pa’s girlfriend so that she can also take care of Pa. She’s very kind and sweet too.” Ploy whispered as she giggled softly.

“I hope I get to remember you mama but I was only a baby when you left. Pa told me so many stories about you and Pa also showed me our pictures together when you were still here. I love you always mama.” Ploy muttered softly to herself.

“P’! Look there’s Nemo! Oh my! There are so many of them!” Ploy said aloud excitedly; she was jumping up and down with joy when a group of small brightly coloured clownfish swims around the tropical coral reefs in front of her, they looked like dancing.

“Pa, where are the jellyfish? I want to see them too!” Ploy grinned, she pulled Kim’s hand.

“Okay okay, slow down sweet pea.” Kim said gently, she smiled and held out her hand to Ploy.

“Pie…” Kim called out softly to Pie.

The room was completely dark; the lights slowly shifted through the spectrum of rainbow to illuminate the translucent jellyfish. The jellyfish glide through the water, their careful and slow movements looks hypnotizing. Pie’s eyes lit with excitement, her eyes wide, she shook Kim off. Kim stared at Pie, amazed by her innocence and playful behavior.

“I’m guessing you like jellyfish?” Kim smirked.

“I love them. You see how gentle they swim? It’s like they’re at one with water, they just go wherever the flow takes them. It feels lik
