"Eric, she just found out about the sea, how can we tell her about Miranda as well?" Ariel asked Eric as the stood made there way through the celebrating crowd.
"Uh- Ariel, you are talking about my Melody. The one that climbed an ice tower with bare hands and feet, then through your father's trident down and saved an entire ocean and then fell off the ice tower and survived. I think she can handle the fact that she has a twin sister that we sent to live in Atlantica so they wouldn't miss you that much, and if the worse came worse like yesterday, we would at least have one daughter safe." Eric explained.
"Even though I have six sisters I would still be shocked if I had another." Ariel insisted.
"So when shall we tell her?" Eric asked.
"I guess we can tell her tonight. While she has calmed down from all the celebrations." Ariel said.
"Okay."
Meanwhile Miranda and Melody talked as if they were old friends in a private nook.
"I have no clue what happened to my parents so I live with your Aunt Attina, Uncle Charles and your cousins Angeline, Coral and Denny."
"You are so lucky you have siblings, I'm an only child."
"At least you don't have to share stuff and you get your own room."
"But don't you live in a palace since your mom is about to be queen? My palace have like more than twenty five rooms!"
"Yeah I live in the palace, but there are some rooms we can't go in and I think we only have like seven. I share with Coral, who is afraid of the dark. Angeline is the oldest so she got her own room and Denny is the only boy so he gets his room too. And granddad gets his own since he is obviously the king!"
"Ah, I see."
"I think your mom is calling you."
"Awe, I gotta go, see you around?"
"I guess, peace princess."
"Um bye to you too."
After dinner Melody snuggled into her bed and her parents came in to say goodnight.
"Melody do you know the girl, Miranda you introduced me too earlier?" Ariel asked.
"Well yeah mom, what about her? I can't meet her or anything?" Melody said.
"No, no, no nothing like that." Eric reassured her.
"Then?"
"Well, shoot, how can I say this. Okay I'll just let it out! Miranda is your twin sister, Melody." Ariel said uncertainly.
"Wha- how? Why didn't we meet before? I thought we were done with secrets!" Melody whined.
"Well, we wanted one daughter to be safe under the sea, and so Atlantica won't miss your mother's presence! She kindda looks more like Ariel than you, since her hair is red and yours is dark like mines." Eric said.
"But still!" Melody said.
"Hey, at least you are not an only child anymore!" Ariel said positively.
"Will she live with us now? I mean everyone is safe and everything." Melody asked.
"We'll see sweetie. Goodnight, Melody." Ariel said.
"Goodnight Melody, don't let the sea urchins bite." Eric said.
"Da-ad we aren't underwater!" Melody laughed.
"I thought I'd try it out!" Eric suggested as he left his daughter to sleep.
