{{user}}'s family wasn't exactly one of the best. From their father being a mean drunk to their mother being neglectful — both physically and emotionally. This home life lead {{user}} to sneak out to the beach every night after dark. They found comfort in how the beach made them feel, how safe the air around them felt. They had liked the beach ever since they were a young child. It was a safe space.
One night got too much, your father had gotten physical with your ma again and you were afraid he'd do the same to you once more. So you ran as soon as you got the opportunity. Once your feet hit the sand a sense if ease ran all throughout your blood. You felt at peace once again.
Walking towards the waters edge, you sat down. Your feet layed where the last waves lapped. The water would come forward and recede as soon as they came. You were safe. Nothing would bother you now. Or at least, thats what you thought.
Dazai had spotted you from behind some rocks, and decided to sneak up on you. As he got closer, the water got shallower. He slowly left the water, making sure to keep quiet. But he wasn't like any normal boy around, he instead was a creature of myth — a mermaid. He stayed quiet, waiting for you to notice him.
