Hey I'm back! Did you miss me? Lol, I've taken a break from FF because of stress. I've tested my patience with people lately and God knows when I'm going to finally explode. I keep things bottled up inside and seldomly open up. Enjoy :)
...
Now that I've given some thought about my first theory, I realized something. It can't be true. If indeed it was a pearl, wouldn't Soul have been effected too? He was the first person to pick it up, and I was the second. If that woman we saw was a mermaid, then everyone should have been effected also. So, there goes my first theory. But, I'm not finished there. I did it. I finally told someone that I'm a mermaid. Just kidding, I only told my reflection. But I did manage to almost confide in my father. He thinks I'm acting all strange because of hormones. Yeah. If you say so dad. Here's how the conversation went:
"Hey dad, can I ask you something?" I looked into my father's eyes, stared at them until he answered.
"Uh, yeah could you stop looking at me like that though. It feels like you're staring into my soul." he answered awkwardly. His eyes looking around hastily to stop my stone hard stare.
"Okay! I wanted to know if you believed in mermaids?" I looked down, making the situation even harder on me.
"Like hell I do! Does it look like fish-girls live in the ocean? You're starting to sound like you're five." he laughed off the idea of any humanoid creatures living in the sea. What he didn't realize is that he hurt me even more than before. It's difficult enough having to deal with this sudden change, but even my father doesn't believe in me. This whole situation is just heart-breaking.
"Oh, alright then. I guess I'll go." I replied, almost crying. To think of an excuse to tell him would be unethical. Because even that bastard deserves to know.
"Maka. Are you okay? You look sad." he started to fiddle with my pigtails. How awkward.
"Uh, yeah. I'm doing just fine!" I blushed, only Soul plays with my hair like that. My father looked up and quickly retreated. He smiled and uttered, "Uh, sorry about that Maka. I forgot that you're getting 'older' and I shouldn't do things like that. But, no matter what age you get you're still gonna be my sweet little baby girl." he blushed and hugged me. Before he let go he whispered, "Maka, remember I'm your father and you can tell me anything. No matter how bad. Okay?".
"Yup. Got it." I smiled and pinky-promised him. If it only was that easy.
I got up and waved goodbye. As I was leaving I heard my dad mutter something. " Teenagers and those damn hormones."
Uh, yeah. I'm totally a mermaid because of my out of control, teenage hormones. Sometimes my dad is to dumb for his own good.
