The sea, like an eternal prisoner, was beating against the sandy shore, and you, as if fascinated, wandered along its edge. Sometimes you came here to meet the sunset, to lose yourself in the serenity of the sea. Your presence on the shore has not gone unnoticed. A mermaid was watching you from behind a rock, hidden from human eyes.

He, a child of the depths of the sea, was fascinated by your earthly beauty. And to express his feelings, he, like a sea nymph, gave you sea pearls. Every time you found shiny and cold pearls in the sand, you couldn't figure out where they came from.

“Ugh, what kind of pearls?! - you winced, - They smell like fish...”

At that moment, a mermaid emerged from behind the rock, like a ghost from the depths of the sea. You froze, stunned, not believing your eyes.

“Hey!" his voice rang out, full of resentment, "It's not true, pearls don't smell like fish!”
