In the afternoon, after lunch, she headed outside to the bench and stared at the beach, waiting for Sosuke to come home.
Ponyo sighed.
She changed to her togs and headed back to beach and swam once more.
The ocean was cold but it didn't really bother her. Her fish sisters made her a bubble again, and this time, Ponyo bravely entered his room. The consequences didn't matter right now.
When she entered the room, nothing have really changed since she was here. But there wasn't Fujimoto or her Mother.
And there was a door that led to his secret locked room that was once opened by Ponyo, 15yrs ago.
She touched the door knob but of course it was locked. Then from the window, she saw a hand, letting go of the fish.
It looked familiar. It looked like Ponyo has saw that fish for a long time. When the fish passed her, she caught it and looked at the eyes. Then she muttered, "Sosuke?"
The fish looked sad but nodded.
"Sosuke, why are you a fish?" Ponyo asked.
The fish talked in the fishy language.
"Ponyo, I was turned into a fish when I was founded out from Fujimoto and he was angry for fishing when you used to be a fish. Then I told him the reasons I was fishing, and he got more and more angry and turned me into a fish for the consequence. Ponyo, what should we do?" said fish Sosuke in fish language.
When Ponyo was going to reply, Fujimoto came outside and smirked at Ponyo.
"Ponyo, my, you've grown. Sosuke will be a fish for a rest of his life for the consequence. Now leave him and he shall be renamed" said Fujimoto coming towards Ponyo.
"NO! NO! I am not going to leave him"
"Then Ponyo, HOW DARE YOU TO LET SOSUKE FISH WHEN YOU WERE USED TO BE A FISH. PONYO, DON'T YOU UNDERSTAND ?" he said.
"It was his dream, Fujimoto"
"You shall be a fishy as well." he said angrily.
Fujimoto took her and made her a fish.
Sosuke and Ponyo were reunited but they were both fish. But at least they were together.
Ponyo enjoyed a bit being a fish again, meeting her fish friends and family. While Sosuke was always down.
"What's wrong Sosuke?" she asked.
"I don't like being a fish" he replied. "I want to go home"
Sosuke was getting homesick.
Ponyo and Sosuke asked Fujimoto and apologized and begged him to be turned into a human again.
"They're three option. One of them is staying fish but together, Sosuke human and Ponyo fish or the opposite. You choose" he explained.
"what about both human?" asked Ponyo.
"No, that is the consequence" replied Fujimoto.
Ponyo and Sosuke discussed.
The option they chose was the way 15yrs ago, Sosuke becoming human and Ponyo remained as a fish.
It was so sad to part with each other.
