Calis stared at Manny in disbelief. His eyes moved to Lee Seng who had turned and was now focused on the conversation. Calis looked at Lee Seng from the other tree branch, cheeks growing red as the sunkissed Merman began to stutter.

Calis gulped, almost coughing and losing his balance on the branch. He quickly balanced himself while Manny covered a chuckle. "I assume they want me back for dinner?"
