Jess sat there on the shower floor with a helpless look in her eyes. Her life had just completely changed and she knew it. She also knew she had to stay in the water and that she could no longer walk.
She sat there and closed her eyes, covering her face with her hands. She couldn't believe what had just happened. She had turned into a mermaid, a creature that's not even supposed to exist. Unable to accept the change, she began to sob.
Todd looked down at his girlfriend with his own helpless look. What happened to his girlfriend, and how did it happen?
"Jess...are you alright? How did this happen?" he asked.
"I don't know!" she wailed inbetween sobs. "It just happened all of a sudden! I grew a fish tail out of nowhere!".
Todd bent down to her level and held the sobbing mermaid tightly.
"Listen honey, I know this is hard for you to deal with right now, so I'm going to fill up the bath until we can figure something out. Please stay strong for me."
As Todd ran the bath, he noticed a look of discomfort in his girlfriend's face. This tub clearly wasn't big enough to fit her entire tailfin. as far as a living space goes, it wouldn't suffice. He wondered where he should take her.
