The waves ripple around me,
calling me in a whisper,
Into the deepest part of the ocean.
As I walk on the soft sand,
the water sweeps over my feet,
surrounding where I stand,
giving me the sweetest sensation.

Oh ocean,
why do I feel so attracted to you?
Why do I feel the tickling of your whispers?
As it causes cold shivers down my spine.
I could hear your gentle lullaby,
It roars like a lion, yet so steady and honest
Just like a refined diamond.

Oh, sea, why do you call my name in a whisper?
Caressing waves upon the shore,
Once again you beckon me.
Why do you show yourself at my doorstep?
Why do I feel your presence everywhere I go?
Why do you call me so desperately?
I want to know, cause when the sea calls?
Who will answer?

WHEN THE SEA CALLS

"Rhea?" Reece called. "I know Louie will want to know what we talked about or the reason you decided to sit with me and not him. You can't tell him."

Rhea nodded. She has no plans to tell Louie that in the first place.

"You did not read my thoughts. Did you?" She asked.

"I did not. I promise I won't. Or do you want me to?"

"Don't do that," Rhea replied. "Don't dare." Reece chuckled but said nothing. "I have been thinking," Rhea continued. "Do I have to sit with you today? I hope I don't have to do that."

Reece smiled. "It doesn't have to be today. I know you want to celebrate Louie's birthday with him today. I won't stop you."

Rhea sighed. She thought Reece would insist that she sit with him today. Thank goodness he did not.

"You should go in, Rhea. You shouldn't keep your friend waiting. I am so surprised he isn't out of the class yet just to look for you."
