Merman tales

By BiancaF Published about 9 hours ago 4 min read

My grand mother Merry Jane was a talented story teller who told me all kinds of tales, legendary stories and she told them very well when I was a little girl. I was only six years old. My grand mother was the apple of my eye I believed everything she told me, even though she reassure me that her stories are not real but apart of me believed the mermaid tales she use to tell me. Her stories was magical.

I grew up believing that mermaids are real I was big on fantasy I loved fiction it interest me because real life is not as interesting as fiction. And naturally I became a book worm, I loved reading it brought me great joy, I was always a day dreamer.

Iam twenty five years old a successful news reader and a self made writer. I live at a beach house because of the love I I have for the ocean. I take my morning walks quiet often, my morning walks on the beach to clear my head from the busy day I had at work. I had everything I ever wanted but I knew something was missing. I longed to be loved by someone I was getting lonely and I craved a romantic relationship I just wanted to be happy, to have someone to come home to after a long day of work at the office.

My desire to be loved and to find love was deep, I craved love. I would spend my nights reading love novels or watching romance movies. I just need someone I can spend my time with other than friends and family. But I had no luck finding love. And I was unlucky in love I was always falling for the wrong guy who end but breaking my heart.

One day I felt very lonely and sad I just needed to get out of the house, to get some fresh air, to feel a breeze of wind on my skin I needed to be alone with my thoughts out in the open. I left my house and took a walk to the beach to clear my head, to fill my mind with positive thoughts. As I was walking on the beach I could hear a man singing, a beautiful soothing voice ,I was curious I was suddenly on a mission to find out who is singing so beautifully. I had to find the man with the beautiful voice and meet him. I was curious maybe to noisy. I finally reached the shore of the beach but there was no one there. Just the howling of the wind hung in the air. I thought maybe iam imaging myself and I turned around and head home to have a nice cup of coffee and to warm myself at the fire place. To have a nice quiet night at home.

I took my regular walks on the beach and forgot all about the man who I heard singing from a distance than suddenly I hear a man voice again drifting in the air, this time I found him when I walk to the shore of the beach and followed the voice. To my surprise it was a merman I think I scared him off, I saw him swinging and when he notice me he swim off deep in the ocean, I knew he was a merman because I saw his tale when he swim in the ocean. It was such a unbelievable beautiful site to see a real merman and to know I was right all along about mermaids.

Months have passed and there was no sign of the merman every time I took a walk on the beach I thought I will never see him again. I prepared a picnic basket and spend my afternoon on the beach reading a book and just took some time to stare at the beauty of nature, the view of the ocean everything was wonderful. Than I saw the merman again this time he swim to the shore looking for me he was curious too, I walked into the ocean and met him in the water. I smiled and ask him do you speak english and he nodded his head. He ask me, what is your name? And I replied Kim. He introduced himself saying iam Carter Blue. He said it is such a blessing to meet such a beautiful human woman and I smiled and he drift away swimming way deep into the ocean and I wonder if I will ever see him again.

A week have past and I gone to the beach every day hoping to see the merman but there was no sign of him. But one day I was standing at the shore of the ocean and threw sea shells I found on the beach back into ocean just to pass time and he appeared suddenly and ask are you here looking for me and I laughed and said yes how did you know? I walked into the ocean to meet him and he gave me a kiss on my check and I followed him swimming under water and we share a passionate kiss under water. We talked for a while after the kiss and he said he have to go. And I ask him will I see you again? He said yes and swim off into the ocean.

I saw the merman for two weeks everyday we had a fling and by than I had a huge crush on my merman friend. But our romance came to a end he had to relocate to another ocean with his family I was sad he had to leave, although he promise to come and visit I never saw him again. All I have is the memories I have of my merman friend and I vowed to myself that one day I will tell my mermaid tale to my future children. I found love a year later and got married to a man who was meant for me. Everything worked out how it should have and I finally got my happy ending.
