Chapter 22

     It seems the weird coloured human spotted her, or maybe he heard something in the water he walked very close before turning back, I couldn't see his face in the dark, Kai, was so frightened, but she had to accomplish her mission today so she peeked through the rock to check if the human is out of sight.

      She was impressed with herself, this was the longest she had been outside the water, she made sure no one could see her then she shed her skin, this was an ability she just tried and she was surprised to see her tail split into two bony parts, she was astonished by what she saw.

    She suddenly felt cold, all her aquatic body parts were gone, the waves brought so much wind and her hair would stay still, it wasn't as easy as she expected, she had to find means of moving, there was no water and she couldn't swim on the land.

   She laid her back on the rock defeated, than an idea popped in her head, she would move like the dark skinned human, so she used her newly found hands to move,he lower waist upwards and she used her legs shakingly to support herself, it seems harder than expected she feel severally before she got the hang of it.

     She walked Down the cold part with her hands hugging herself, she looked so thin, and her long hair touched the ground, she was naked, and the rush of her through her nostrils made her dizzy and she fell on the floor, the dark huge man came outside and saw her,lying lifeless on the floor.

    He paced back and forth, the body lying in front of him looks foreign, he picked her up and took her inside,covered her with a blanket, and placed her close to the fire place, I still didn't see his face, I couldn't even after trying, severely maybe there is a reason why I couldn't see his face,.

    Looking at Kai,it seems her body has adapted to the warm nature,her long eyelashes flickered as she opened them and realization struck Her as she stood up, where is she!?She fell back on the ground because they weren't used to standing yet.

     She looked around the apartment, " where am I?,humans...no... no ...no ...humans I have been caught by a human'' her inner goddess screams within her, she tried crawling since her newly found legs weren't functioning, but she was obstructed by a pair of bare feet,as fear crept into her soul.

        " You are naked,please tie the blanket around your waist," his voice sounded very deep. Kai rushed towards a chair and hid behind it on hearing his voice ,like an energised child playing hide and seek.

     The sound seem strange to her,she peeked continuously as she shivered, being caught by a human wasn't her plan she could sense the water very close,so she looked for root to escape, " hi,um.. you might catch a good, Young lady you appeared very close to my door naked,and without clothes, please put them up and stay close to the fire for warmth".

        Kai she Leaned closer on the chai instead, then the tall man walked up to her, she was paralyzed at the spot, as she peeked through the strands of hair falling on her face,the man walk very very close to her then he helped her remove the hair from her face, she seemed to be sensitive to all his touches.

        Be bent down,till he faces her, vividly ...." I know you are scared,and lost, you must be one of the missing tourists that drowned but your hair… I haven't seen anyone with a very long hair,and the Bright colour,Maybe the ocean has its own touch on it anyway"

          When he saw that she wasn't responding, he left her alone,then brought a pair of clothes for her, then dropped them on the floor close to her, " here you can wear this"

    He came back after a short time, then dragged a chair, to sit close to her, he had a plate of food on his hands, "seems you are still in shock, but eat something", tomorrow you will be taken to the hospital, I really like his accent.

    It's like a real South African accent, " do you remember your name"? Kai could comprehend what he was saying,she was just looking for means to escape,she saw herself in a strange situation.

        " What is this human doing, this place is too hot, is he trying to kill me?, She tried moving towards the door when the man left, she tried dragging it open but I just won't open," am I trapped in here?, She turned hurriedly, to look for another way out.

       As the man walked in and caught her in the act of escaping,she froze, she looked at him trying to read his facial expressions, he just stood still looking at her, without saying a word, after some time he walked towards a chair and sat down facing the ceiling. 

       " You can leave if you want to", then he walked towards the door, and open it wide open for Kai to go free is shes willing to leave
