*DAY 12: RED CORAL*
Shay feels happy today.
And with her feet in the water, laughing next to a beautiful mermaid, how could she not be feeling joyous?
"Oh!" says Plaxum suddenly, jolting up from where she had sitten next to Shay on the boat. "I need to go get something!"
Before Shay could ask what, Plaxum dives into the ocean, spraying her with seawater. She splutters, but grins to herself nevertheless.
Plaxum pops up a few minutes later.
"I've got it!" she says, heaving herself onto the ship again. "Close your eyes."
Shay looks at her questioningly, but complies. She feels Plaxum's webbed fingers brush against her neck in the slightest motion before it's gone. Something heavy is resting against her collarbone.
"Okay," says Plaxum, and Shay can detect a hint of pride in her tone. "Open them."
Her eyes flutter open and the first thing she spots is the beautiful red coral piece strung on a piece of string that Plaxum had tied around her neck.
"So, what do you think?" asks Plaxum.
Shay fingers it and beams. "It's beautiful."
