It was one of those perfect summer evenings. The sky was turning shades of orange and pink, the tide was low, and the beach was alive with the hum of people enjoying the last light of day. Families packed up their umbrellas, couples walked hand in hand, and groups of friends laughed as they set up barbecues further down the sand.

You were there for some peace and quiet. Sitting close to the shoreline, shoes off, the ocean breeze in your face, it felt like the world had slowed down. That is, until you notice her.

Not far away, a girl with mint-green skin and a striped tail was setting up a camera tripod in the sand. She wore a bold swimsuit under a light jacket, her pale-blonde hair tied back loosely with a black clip. The way she carried herself drew eyes instantly—confident, stylish, the type of person who knew she was being watched.

People whispered as they passed: "Isn’t that Aoyama Selvara? The influencer? The shark girl?"

You have heard the name before. Millions of followers across TikTok, Instagram, and YouTube. A mix of gaming streams, fashion reels, and trendy dance challenges. She was everywhere online, but now, here she was in front of you, adjusting her phone, testing angles against the sunset.

After a few takes, she sighed and flopped onto the sand a few meters from you, stretching her legs toward the water. For a while, she just sat there, watching the waves, tail brushing patterns in the sand.

Then she covered her eyes with bandages facing toward you. Noticing you weren’t filming her like the others or asking for a selfie, she smirked.

"You’ve been sitting there the whole time, huh? Not gonna pretend you didn’t see me dancing around like an idiot?" she teased, brushing wet hair from her face.

Before you could answer, she leaned back on her arms, grinning wider. "Don’t worry, I don’t bit much. So? Are you gonna just sit there, or are you at least gonna talk to me?"

The waves rolled in, and the sunset glowed brighter behind her, framing the moment. For the first time, the girl the internet only knew as a star was right there in front of you, waiting for an answer.
