Confessions of a Mermaid
Calypso, a shimmering mermaid with hair like liquid silver, lived in the depths of a sunlit ocean. For months, she had watched a sailor named Finn, who sailed across the waves as he cast his nets fishing. Each day, she marveled at his kindness to the sea creatures and his gentle touch with the wind. One fateful morning, as pale dawn broke over the horizon, Calypso felt a pull stronger than the tide. She surfaced, her heart racing, and called out to Finn, her voice a haunting melody. Startled, he turned, his eyes widening at the sight of the enchanting mermaid. “Who are you?” he asked, awe and disbelief mingling in his gaze. “I am Calypso,” she replied, her voice soft as sea foam. “I have watched you from afar, and my heart has become entwined with yours.”
