Under the Sea
A Mermaid's Tale
Narrator's pov:
The turquoise colored sea turned more and more blue until it became dark, deep water. Even though it was summer, the water was a lot cooler, but refreshing for the human.
Small fishes were swimming around his legs, touching his skin sometimes, making him chuckle softly.
"They like you." the mermaid laughed, giving Woohyun a bright smile.
The said human beamed as he looked at the colorful and beautiful fishes that were gathering around him and Marna.
The two friends decided to have a tour in the sea, with Marna leading of course.
Woohyun had been nothing but fascinated and being excited for this.
It was something new for him.
Of course he had been to aquariums, or had been on a boat, but he never came to the deserted place they were now.
Deserted by humans, but lived with many sea creatures.
Woohyun was wearing a simple t-shirt and shorts while he stood in the water, wetting them, though not caring about it at all. He had goggles with him, to make sure he could see everything clearly, to be able to see the beauty of under the sea.
"They are beautiful." Woohyun beamed, looking at the many colored fishes, big and small, of many shapes.
Marna brightened, finding it nice of him to say it.
"Usually they don't like humans, but since you're my friend, they're curious about you." Marna chuckled before she went under water, Woohyun following before he took a deep breath.
He looked at Marna who was playing with some fishes, her big tail moving and swirling in the water, creating some bubbles.
Woohyun was indeed fascinated. It was beautiful. Marna was beautiful.
They swam deeper and Woohyun needed to hold Marna's hand to make sure he would get attacked or get drowned.
It may have frightened a lot of people to go so deep in the sea, but knowing that a mermaid is protecting him, he was fearless of this journey through the sea, under the sea.
They went under water again and Woohyun widene dhis eyes as he looked at it.
It was colorful.
Not only because of the many colored fishes, but because it almost looked like a world.
Would Atlantis have looked like that?
What Woohyun saw in front of his eyes wasn't some lost kingdom, but he saw ruines, only they weren't.
