THEME: Off to the human world


    SEVEN DAYS LATER


    Ade was weak, she had refused to eat and the concoction the sea wizard gave her has affected her greatly. Her entire world was upside down as she couldn’t cast a spell to free herself.  She felt like her body was shutting down rapidly, her eyes closed slightly but she blinked severally.


    No! She didn’t want to die! Then Ade began to sing the song she sang on her birth celebration day in her mind. She pleaded with the sea to grant her wish.


    At the same hour she had said the wish seven days ago, suddenly her tail became translucent. Ade felt the emptiness and her eyes opened only for her eyes to widen when she saw that her body was different. It was more transparent!


    Ade couldn’t make out what was happening to her and she wanted to scream for help but her mouth was sealed.


    Minutes clicked by and then Oceanus, na, Morrissey, Colbert and Azizi came into her room to see her. But their jaws dropped when they saw her new appearance. She was extremely translucent.


    Queen na rushed towards her, tried to reach for her daughter’s hands but she couldn’t feel Ade.


    “Ade, can you hear me?” Queen na asked with a wide eye.


    Ade nodded. Colbert went to her and unbind the tools. “What did you do to yourself?!” Oceanus questioned in a high tone.


    Ade opened her mouth to speak but her voice failed her, she was confused.


    “Get Abijam!” Oceanus ordered and Colbert rushed out of the room.


    “How did you be like this?” Queen na questioned.This content ? N?v/elDr(a)m/a.Org.


    “You can hear us right?” Azizi asked.


    Ade nodded again and they were stunned at her appearance.


    “Don’t leave me Ade. I am so sorry for hitting you and I promise you that you won’t get married to someone you don’t love. Please take back your wish.” Queen na pleaded.


    “Mother rx.. Ade -” Morrissey was interrupted.


    “Please stay with me.” Queen na sobbed.


    “What is happening to me?” Ade asked but since they couldn’t hear her so she got no response.


    Ade tried to touch her mother’s cheeks to wipe her tears but she couldn’t feel anything. She was transparent! The sea wizard jaw droppedpletely when his gaze fell on her and he was stunned! All his years as a sea wizard he has never seen a translucent mermaid. It was as if Ade was a spirit mermaid.


    “Abijam do something!” Oceanus ordered.


    Abijam tried several spells to revive Ade but nothing worked and he realized the princess was leaving the merworld.


    “What is going on?” Oceanus asked.


    “Lord Oceanus, I am as confused as you are now.” Abijam mumbled with confusion on his expression


    “Confused?” Queen na cried.


    “Yes it seems the sea has finally granted the princess wish.” The sea wizard said.


    Queen na cried out. Now Ade couldn’t make out what the sea wizard was saying to her family.


    “But.. you gave her concoction.” Azizi said, their words fading in Ade’s ears.


    “Yes prince Azizi, but tthe concoction was to weaken her so she could stay a bit longer and that was why shested seven days.” He exined how the concoction worked.


    “What?! So are you saying Ade is going to the human world?! But you made it clear that the concoction would reverse the wish!” Morrissey snarled.


    “Forgive me my prince.” Abijam bowed.


    “No.. no.. no..” Queen na said unsteadily when she noticed Ade’s disappearance from her tail.


    “Please don’t leave me, Ade.” She begged tearfully.


    But Queen na couldn’t stop her, they watched as Ade disappeared to the unknown world leaving just her sea-bud crown behind on her bed.


    “No!” Queen na screamed while Morrissey held her tightly. “My child!” She cried. They were heartbroken!


    “Abijam bring my Almeta back.” Queen na went to the sea wizard and held on to him.


    “She is a little child, Ade can’t survive in that world.. that wicked human world.” Oceanus said.


    “Please bring my child back, Ade.” Queen na pleaded tearfully.


    “I am sorry queen na. There is nothing I can do to bring her back. All we have to do is give her our blessings and ask the sea to protect her in that world.” Abijam said sincerely.


    On hearing the sea wizard words, queen na fainted. “Mother! Wake up!” Aziz was quick to catch her and she was rushed to her chambers.


    Ade was gone, this is how the special mermaid left the merworld to experience human life.
