Chapter 8

It was the weekend so Cleo was at work as a dolphin trainer at sea world because since she'd started college she had been working weekends. "Good morning Ronnie. How are you today?" Cleo said with telepathy "I'm okay. How are you?" Ronnie replied "I'm good. We're gonna be going over a new routine today." Cleo replied "Oh really? What are we gonna do this time?" Ronnie asked and then they started discussing their routine for the next show and later that day it was time for the show and the other mermaids plus Jake were in the highest row in the bleachers so they wouldn't get wet. "Hey everybody. Say hello to Ronnie!" Cleo said and made a hand signal and Ronnie started fin-walking across the water while making noises at the crowd then dove under and jumped out of the water doing several flips. "Wow you told me Cleo worked at the marine park but you never said she's a dolphin trainer." Jake said to Rikki "Really? well you know now." Rikki replied then the dolphins did some more flips. "She must be happy getting paid to play with dolphins all day." Jake said "That's why I encouraged her to go for the job." Bella said "Well it certainly worked out well. The crowd loves her." Jake replied "Well I'm glad to see Cleo made a name for herself while I was gone. She's really good at her job. I'm also glad she's being careful." Emma said "I'd bet her job got a lot easier now that she can talk to them. All the dolphins are being careful not to get her wet and she's able to teach them what the hand signals mean much easier now and collaborate with them to come up with new routines. She's doing a great job too." Bella said and when the show finished everybody went home not knowing the surprise that awaited them in just a few days.
