Seeing that he didn’t respond for a long time, I gathered my courage and moved closer to him. Seeing that he was still frowning in pain, my breathing became more hurried.
Was he dehydrated?
I didn’t care that I was injured. I quickly picked up the banana leaf and ran to the beach to scoop some seawater before pouring it on him.
But that didn’t ease his pain at all. Seeing him grow weaker, I panicked.
What should I do? Would he die of thirst like ordinary fish?
Should I save him?
Just then, I heard a whistle from the sea. I turned around, but I couldn’t tell if it was a private fishing boat or a passenger ship.
What should I do? Should I ask them for help? Or should I hide him?
If those people handed him over to the relevant organizations, would he be dissected for experiments?
Countless worries welled up in my heart. In the end, I decided to hide him until he woke up.
By the time the fishing boat reached shore, I had already dragged him into an inconspicuous clump of trees deep in the woods.
This place was dark and humid. My dress, which was already soaked in seawater, couldn’t dry any longer.
It clung wetly to my body, giving me a sense of shame.
But I couldn’t care less. I had to stay here with him until the fishermen left.
Time ticked by. I couldn’t stand the heat. I had to chase away the mosquitoes and ants for his wound.
From morning to dusk, the fishermen never left. I was starving, and my eyelids were drooping.
In order not to fall asleep, I slapped myself several times, but I couldn’t resist my sleepiness and gradually fell asleep.
In a daze, I felt something cold on my forehead, like something was sucking on my wound.
So itchy, so comfortable…
I opened my eyes slowly. Night had fallen.
There was something heavy about my body. It was then that I realized it was the mermaid that was pressing down on me and sucking my forehead with his delicate lips.
His chest pressed against my body, making my face flush to the base of my neck.
This was the first time I was so close to the opposite sex.
Wait a minute. Was he of the opposite sex? Or was he another species?
I didn’t know. At this moment, I just wanted to immerse myself in his cool suction and feel this gentleness.
So this was what it felt like to be intimate with someone. Now, I could understand why some people only thought about dating every day.
After a while, he finally left my body.
Our faces were very close. I didn’t know if it was because of the darkness of the night, but I noticed that he had a pair of dark blue pupils.
Those pupils were like two beautiful universes that attracted all my attention. I didn’t even notice that his lips were gradually pressing against the corner of my mouth. At the same time, his hands began to roam around my waist.
“Ah…”
This feeling was so amazing that I couldn’t help but want to curl up.
I squirmed weakly while trying to express my resistance, but he had no intention of letting me go. He even ran his smooth tongue over my face.
“Don’t be like this…”
I couldn’t help but say it, but he was unmoved, as if he couldn’t hear me at all.
When his hand continued to move up to my armpit, I finally couldn’t hold back and pushed him away with all my strength.
“Don’t touch me!”
After yelling, I picked up the branch on the ground and pointed it at him to tell him that he would be in danger if he got any closer.
His face revealed a sorrowful expression. He clearly had a strong body, but he looked as innocent and pitiful as a child.
I couldn’t help but feel sympathetic.
I pricked up my ears to listen. The surroundings were very quiet. It seemed that the fishermen had already left.
I took a few deep breaths to calm myself down and I tried to communicate with him.
“Where is your home? Do you need me to send you back?”
He tilted his head and his pointy ears twitched, as if he couldn’t understand what I was saying.
Gathering my courage, I walked forward and extended my hand to him. “Let’s go. I’ll take you back to the ocean.”
This time, he seemed to understand. He shook his head and shrank back, as if he was very resistant to returning to the sea.
I couldn’t help but feel troubled. Should I leave him here?
Also, should I continue with my suicide plan?
These questions haunted me, irritated me, and I didn’t know where to go or what to do next.
Bada!
The damp canopy was dripping water.
All of a sudden, the mermaid screamed again, and I covered my ears in fright.
I felt sad as I watched him fall to the ground in pain and curl up into a ball.
I guessed it was the pain from his wound, so I walked up to examine his wound. To my surprise, I found that the lower half of the fishtail was still black. It was obvious that the wound had worsened after being delayed for too long.
From the looks of it, I should quickly send him to the vet.
“Wu… Wu…”
His shrill scream turned into a little beast-like moan that made one’s heart ache.
As the water droplets dripped down, he let out another scream. However, his voice was already hoarse and it did not sound as ear-piercing as before.
So the water droplets had hurt his wound.
That water droplet might have mixed with the dirty things on the tree and was completely different from the seawater, so it hurt him?
Seeing him in so much pain, I couldn’t take it anymore. I simply stepped forward and extended my hand to him again.
“Come on. I’ll take you back to my house..”
