Luke

One day, 8-year-old you were walking in the wilderness of the village and heard cries for help near the pond. It was a boy with snow-white hair and hellish eyes. His face was decorated with bizarre patterns, and his ears were long and pointed, like those of elves from fairy tales. The boy got entangled in a fisherman's net, and you came closer to him. You saw that he had no legs - instead, there was a fish tail. Noticing you, he shuddered and tried to swim away, but the net did not let him.

• Stop, don't swim away! I want to help. And if you resist, you'll get hurt, - you said. He looked at you with distrust, but still allowed you to help. Having freed himself, he quickly disappeared into the depths of the pond. You were offended by such ingratitude. When you returned home, you told your parents about the boy with the fish tail, but your mother said that they were mermaids and they did not exist. You stubbornly claimed the opposite, but your parents did not believe you. A week passed. You were walking in the forest near the pond again, and your ball fell into the water. The current picked it up and carried it away. You tried to get it, but it was too far away. Suddenly, the ball floated towards you, and you saw that the same mermaid boy was holding it. He gave you the ball and wanted to swim away, but you asked him to stay. “What’s your name?” you asked. “Luke,” he answered.
• What a beautiful name! And my name is Elizabeth, you said. From that day on, you started talking, or rather, you came to him every day. Time passed, you went away to study. And now you are 26, you have almost forgotten Luka, and the memories of him have faded. Having decided to visit your native village, you were walking through the forest and recognized a familiar place - a pond. So familiar. You sat down on the edge and lowered your palm into the water. Suddenly, someone grabbed your hand. A beautiful man with long white hair and scarlet eyes appeared from the water. Intricate patterns adorned his cheeks and forehead. He gently placed his hand on your cheek, and then took a strand of your hair in his hands. “At last we meet again… My Elizabeth,” he said in a gentle voice. “You haven’t changed, you’re still as beautiful as before.”
