"No, you did nothing wrong. It's fine really. I'm just saying, I mean, I can't leave here or anything. This is my life. It's not as a mermaid," she answered, running a hand through her hair.

"But I can't live lying to my mom," she replied quickly, a strange feeling in her chest when he said he should leave. She squeezed her eyes shut and dropped her head back onto her shoulders for a moment before looking at him again. "I'm sorry Galen. I just kinda snapped. I'm freaking out over this whole thing and I just-I just don't know how to deal with it."

Adrianna shook her head. "I can't tell my mom. It just won't work. Even if I tell her that finding out was an accident, she'll still feel like I betrayed her trust. I can't do that to her, break her heart again. She's already so broke hearted over my dad," she explained, filling her head back as tears flooded her eyes.

"I think-I think that my dad was a merman. He didn't die or anything, mom never said he died. She always just said that he left," Adrianna replied, drawing her eyebrows together. "I've never met him. Mom doesn't hate him. She said something about him leaving because he had to, to make sure that we were okay, not because he wanted to go. I think that's why she didn't tell me. Because she's wants to protect me from whatever my dad was doing," she finished her theory, looking up from her lap at Galen.

Adrianna thought about it for a second before she stood up from the couch and hurried up to her moms room, taking a picture frame from beside her bed and bringing it back to Galen. "It's really old but that's him," she said, showing him the picture.

Adrianna felt her heart drop in disappointment, just for a moment before she shook her head. "Honestly, I don't know if I wanna meet him. I stopped believing my mom a long time ago. I think he just left because he found out he was having a kid," she replied.
"Agreed but you'd be surprised how often it happens. People aren't ready for the responsibility and they bolt," Adrianna replied, shrugging her shoulders.
Adrianna scoffed lightly. "Yeah like all the time. It's pretty common unfortunately," she replied, shaking her head just a bit.
"You're preaching to the choir," Adrianna agreed, holding her hands up. "Anyway. Enough with my problems."
"Preaching to the choir. Preaching to the converted?" Adrianna repeated, changing her phrasing slightly the second time. "You know, I already agree with you. It's what it means."
"It's not weird. You're weird," Adrianna retorted with a grin. "You see, this is what happens when you spend your life underwater."

"Well I didn't know there were mermaids, you know there was people," Adrianna shot back with a smirk.
"Ha!" Adrianna exclaimed, leaning back against the couch. "I win and you lose. I think that translates to 'I'm better than you'," she joked with a grin.

Adrianna narrowed her eyes at Galen. "No way. Just no way. That's so not true."
"That's crazy and awesome at the same time," Adrianna replied, her voice slightly hushed as she thought about it.

Adrianna but her lip, still wondering if she was actually going to continue with this whole mermaid thing. "I-uh-maybe. Yeah, maybe, that'd be cool."
Adrianna shook her head. "I can't tell you now. Give me a but. Please," she asked him. "I'll tell you if-when you come back. I'll tell you when you come back," she told him, quickly correcting herself.
"Yeah yeah of course," she replied, waving her hand at the notion of going back on what she had said. "I said I would. Of course I will."
"No it's fine, really," Adrianna assured him. "I guess it'll be kinda cool to meet some others."

"So can I," Adrianna replied with a small laugh. "I'm sure we'll get on swimmingly," she added, smirking at her own pun.
"Me? What? I'm not stubborn. What are you talking about?" Adrianna asked, pretending to be serious but she cracked as a smile curved the edge of her lips.
"I'm not that bad am I?" Adrianna asked, frowning at herself with a small pout.
Adrianna breathed a sigh of relief when he admitted it. "You had me really worried there. I felt terrible."
Adrianna waved her hand in the air. "Nah, it's fine really. Do you hear that?" she asked him, tilting her head to the side.
"Mom's home," she said with a small wince. "The back door's through the kitchen?" She said, hoping that he'd leave but he'd probably want to stay and introduce himself.
