Mermaid’s Lust

Chapter 19



[Kevin’s Perspective]

“Hey, come here.” Kathy was trying to call someone out of nowhere.

Suddenly, a girl with a short haircut appeared in front of us.

We were actually puzzled if this was real, especially when she started to walk towards us.

This girl shouldn’t be her girlfriend? After all, this can be very controversial.

My eyes followed her just to make sure, then we were shocked when she ran and hugged Kathy tightly.

I was wrong. They really are together.

I saw it. It was not just a simple hug of friendship,

but a more romantic and passionate one.

Kathy kissed the girl’s hand and stared at Andy happily.

She was already aware of our reaction.

I mean, Who wouldn’t react the same way as we did?

She was once obsessed with a boy, and now she seems clingy with her new girlfriend.

“Here she is, this is the love of my life and the person who would take care of me for the rest of my existence. We have been together for a short time, but we love each other very much,” Kathy said with a wide smile on her face.

I was speechless. I looked at her girlfriend and smiled lightly.

She smiled back at Andy and me, then rubbed Kathy’s hair spoilfully.

It was a very twisted event.

From her being an obsessed and demanding woman, and now coming out as bisexual.

“It’s nice to meet you two.” She greeted me shyly.

“So… you mean to say that you are a… lesbian? What’s going on?” Andy looked at them in surprise.

Kathy laughed and looked at her girlfriend for a moment, then both of them nodded to Andy’s question.

“Yes, yes she is,” Kathy answered.

It’s now finally confirmed, this girl really dared to love a woman.

I don’t hate them nor their relationship. In fact, I respect their sexual preferences. However, considering the harsh society we live in.

Will their relationship survive the judgements?

” I only found out that there was something wrong with my sexual orientation when I met her. “Kathy started explaining.

“I always thought I liked you very much, Andy. However after I met her, I felt a strange affection. I then compared the feelings I had with you and her.

Suddenly, I realized that I fell in love with her more than I did with anyone else.” she added.

Kathy paused for a moment and realized that both of us stayed quiet.

She also felt that somehow, we had concerns with their relationship.

“As a person with my own choices, I don’t care about some damn restrictions. Don’t worry, please go ahead, and bless the two of us,” she said while smiling.

The girls admitted that they don’t care what others may think of them.

As long as they have each other, they don’t need to ask other people’s opinions.

The two clasped their fingers and looked at each other affectionately as if they would enter the bridal chamber in the next seconds.

They really looked deeply in love. I can also sense the glow on Kathy’s face when this girl comes to her. Although she looked comfortable picking on Andy, she looked far more attached to her girlfriend.

“Yes, I would gladly bless your relationship, and I also want to share to our other friends that you have met the love of your life” Andy replied sincerely.

He then turned his head on me. “Go ahead and bless her. Their courage is commendable,” he said.

At that exact moment, I know what he already meant.

He was trying to emphasize me with the word “courage”.

In fact, he was right. I didn’t dare to sacrifice for Nina. I was a big coward.

I can sense that Andy was already having an idea in mind, and I am ready to accept whatever his decision is.

“What about you? What are your plans?” Kathy asked Andy.

She’s probably afraid that Andy will be sad for her, but I can see in Andy’s eyes that he was happy for them. I know that the only person he ever loved was Nina.

“You are right. If you like someone, you must go bravely. I always had a person I liked for a long time. I already confessed to her and was rejected, but I will not give up. I’ll prove to her that I can love her unconditionally.”

Andy looked firmly into the distance. He was thinking about Nina.

“Oh, well, because I liked you so much before, you didn’t even tell me who she was. But it doesn’t matter, I am very happy now.

Thinking of it, I do believe you, you will succeed, so cheer up, you are excellent in everything, how can she refuse a guy like you?”

Kathy looked at Andy, her eyes did not show that kind of admiration look anymore, but as a friend that really cares for him.

It’s a little sad that Andy did not like her. I can see that she was very concerned and honest towards him.

Nevertheless, I am still happy that she proudly came out and found her soulmate.

“You are right. She may disagree with me because of some things now.

I have to insist that her rejection didn’t affect me. As long as I can be with her, I will be happy to do anything.” Andy’s voice was very soft, but it was like a needle stuck in my heart, the pain was unbearable.

He would do anything for Nina which I can’t.

From this moment, I was fully awakened.

Nina really deserves Andy. She was almost his entire world.

“Well, we have to go. Today is a very important day. We are going on a date. She is very important to me, so I would have to ignore you first.

You should go to her early and return here soon together.” Kathy told him.

“And Kevin…, see you next time.” she patted my shoulders and left.

“Goodbye.” I also bid her farewell.

Kathy took her girlfriend’s hand and left excitedly, her face brimmed with happiness and looking enviable.

“Have fun!” Looking at the back of their departure, Andy shouted at them and sincerely wished them well.

“That girl likes you?” I went back and asked Andy.

He let out a big sigh and answered,

“Yes, she liked me for a very long time. It’s not too much to describe her, but I didn’t like her back. You know the person I really like was Nina. Kathy tends to be very possessive and annoying, but overall she was smart and caring. I’m not gonna lie, it felt different without her around.

However, being with Nina’s side makes me happier.”

When he talked about Kathy, his eyes were dim, but when he mentioned Nina, his tilted mouth proved how happy he was.

This is what it should be like to really love someone.

I can see how his love for Nina was so pure and sincere.

“Go back to find her, I won’t bother you again in the future. I hope you will be together till the end” I looked at the dejected Andy, and my heart was mixed. Maybe I shouldn’t have appeared in the first place. Maybe I was the barrier to their love story from the beginning.

Both Nina and Andy are important to me. I can’t be selfish and own Nina when I have no intentions of settling down with her.

I am very convinced that Andy is for her and not for me, nor for anyone else.

I cannot do anything but let them be happy.

As of now, Nina can still have feelings for me, but I trust that one day she will love Andy as much as she used to like me.

“Are you sure? I would accept that challenge happily,” Andy replied with a smirk on his face.

“Yes. I am serious, and I apologize for everything. I wish you all the best!” I told Andy then bid him goodbye.

[Andy’s Perspective]

As they left, Kevin asked me about Kathy and her past feelings for me.

I was as shocked as he was, but overall I’m happy for both of them.

When they started explaining how they wouldn’t care about others’ judgement, my mind suddenly realized what they meant.

I am not sure if we were the first people to officially know about their relationship.

It took them a lot of guts and courage to come out.NôvelDrama.Org holds © this.

However, I do hope that more people will commend their braveness, including Kathy’s family.

Ever since Nina rejected me, I started to be distant from her.

I knew that she loved Kevin, so I gave them space to figure out their love.

And now Kevin has failed me.

As we continued to talk, our topic shifted back to Nina.

“Go back to find her, I won’t bother you again in the future. I hope you will be together till the end” Kevin told me.

As I heard those words, my eyes suddenly widened.

Is he for real? Is he really letting me pursue Nina now?

I was having doubts as well, I know for a fact that even if he rejected Nina’s request, she would still have feelings for him. Their love and memories won’t be easily erased instantly.

“Are you sure? I would accept that challenge happily,” I replied with a smirk on my face.

I stared at Kevin and he really looked serious.

Maybe he realized that I can sacrifice everything for Nina including my personal life and career.

“Yes. I am serious, and I apologize for everything. I wish you all the best!” he tapped my shoulder and turned his back to leave.

At that moment, I realized everything.

I really love Nina and I am willing to go after her.

Even without Kevin’s signal, I would still sail to Greenland to join her.

Maybe she won’t accept me now, but I won’t give up no matter what.

I remembered how she used to tell me the tales of Grandmother Jingchen.

Maybe I needed to find her first, she can help me with Nina.

I rushed home to plan everything out.

I felt very excited, I even took a glance at her picture on my camera.

“I can’t wait to see you, my love, “I whispered and continued to sort my things.

“These next few days, I will sail to her island right away.”

[Nina’s Perspective]

I think I am very happy now. I am no longer alone. I have my family to accompany me, my sister and brother to listen to, and lovely creatures in the sea to play with me.

Why not? After a busy day, I swam in the seabed as a mermaid.

The seawater soaked my body entirely, and the water was clear and cool. Colourful underwater creatures swayed from side to side.

They were soft and lovely. After a while of underwater entertainment,

I felt a little tired and swam to my bed to rest.

Suddenly a big ball hit me and I caught it.

That was a little strange. Something from the land appeared underwater.

I looked around to see who it was then I heard a familiar voice calling me.

“Hi, we meet again, are you all right?” Andy came out of the water with his bare upper body.

I was a little shocked and surprised.

How did he get down under such deep water?

“Ah … Andy? Why and how are you here?” I asked him in extreme curiosity.

“I came here to accompany you. I don’t feel at ease when you are alone here by yourself. I also haven’t seen you for a long time.

I wanted you to know that I missed you very much.”

Andy replied with excitement.

“Well, how did you find me? The water is so deep, you should go up quickly and don’t catch a cold.” I told him worriedly.

In my mind, I am very happy that he came to see me, and I don’t want him to get sick nor drown because of me.

“You see, I went to find Grandmother Jingchen. I told her I wanted to see you and she told me exactly what to do. She instructed me to look for the stone. It wasn’t easy to find the underwater heart-shaped stone she asked for, but for you, I would do anything. After successfully discovering where it was it made me officially one of you, A mermaid! So now, I can always accompany you.” He happily swung the fishtail that he should not have in the first place.

I don’t know what to say about him. Tears in my eyes couldn’t help but flow down. He actually loved me to the point where he gave up his simple life and career.

Andy saw how sad I was and went over to comfort me.

“Why? Isn’t it good if I stay here?” he asked me jokingly.

To think of it, he shouldn’t have come here, I hurt him way too much.

He has his own life and future ahead.

How can he trade that?

“What are you doing here?” I asked him again.

“I just wanted to be with you. I know you can’t accept my feelings for you, but I am with you as a friend for now. You can push me away but please let me be with you, okay? This time, please don’t refuse me again.” His eyes were full of tears as he talked to me. Making me cry as well.

“You have your own life, too. You can’t be like this because of me.” I desperately told him and banged his chest.

“It doesn’t matter, I did this within my own will.

It will never be your fault that I traded my life for happiness.

Please, just this time, don’t try to push me away.” Andy looked at me with firm eyes.

I can sense that he was very sincere and concerned with me.

My tears have completely flown and he immediately calmed me.

The two of us hugged each other deeply then we swam together in the deep waters.

I felt very happy at this moment. Someone has finally chosen to be with me despite the pain that I inflicted on them. I should’ve known that I meant something very special to him. All this time I was the one chasing love and commitment. I was blinded by the idea that only the men that I truly love can make me happy.

I now realized that I was wrong all this time.

I haven’t remembered the friendship and bond I have with Andy.
