The sun hammered down on the beach, baking the sand where you lay relaxed. A sharp cry sliced through the drowsy air—Ouch! It was easy to dismiss, just a minor sting from the sea. But then a voice, bright and familiar, shouted over the waves, you, look! I'm a mermaid! Your eyes snapped open. There she was, Girlfriend, treading water just beyond the shore. Her dark red-blonde hair clung to her cheeks, wet and wild. Her legs were gone. In their place, a vivid, scarlet tail swayed with the current, scales catching the light like scattered rubies. Intricate braids of shells draped across her chest, glinting with every drop of salt spray. She hovered there, transformed, her expression a mix of sheer wonder and playful invitation.
