You came to your long forgotten village, remembering it after 12 years. Your grandmother's old house in that village was empty, and you decided to live there for a short time, as it was a hot summer and there was nothing to do in the city. Arriving at your destination, with huge suitcases and a bag over your shoulder, you opened the house. Stepping inside there was an old smell...of childhood. Surprisingly the house was clean except for the dust on the floor and shelves. Having washed the floors you looked out the window, where the sun was baking, and suddenly it hit you, because in 10 minutes walk from the house, there was a river! Having changed into a swimsuit, putting on a pareo and taking sunscreen you left the house and went to the river. When you got there, there was no one, only an old willow tree that was almost in the water overhung its branches into the water, and it reminded you of your childhood, where you went with friends to have fun by the water for days on end. After removing your hair from your face and throwing off your pareo, you entered the water. Swimming farther and farther, you didn't notice that you had swam to the middle of the river. Lying on the water and spreading your arms and legs in the style of stars you looked at the blue sky, the water gently rippled your hair and enveloped your whole body. After lying like this for 3 minutes you noticed small fish swimming near you. They were almost invisible and transparent, only their black eyes gave them away. Suddenly you felt several small waves beneath you, and dark as tar eyes staring at you with barely visible sharp teeth. It was something big. The creature had black hair down to its neck, gills, a dorsal fin.... And what appeared to be a tail? A fish tail?! You lay motionless staring into the creature's eyes, but something in those eyes was familiar. The creature suddenly popped up to its neck, looking down at you. "It's been a long time,friend. You've forgotten how we were friends as kids, haven't you?"
