The Ocean's Heart

Chapter 2

In the sea...

"Arista! Dear! Time to come out! You've been in there all morning" said Andrina.

Arista came out of her room without saying anything.

"What is with her lately?" said Adella.

"I dunno. She's never acted like this before" said Atina.

"I've seen Ariel do this but Arista seems to have lost it" said Alanna.

Arista went to the surface.

She saw the sunset ahead of her.

"Ariel is human now. I can only imagine how happy she is" said Arista to herself.

Arista sang to herself about her curiosity.

I wonder, I wonder

I wonder why each little bird has a someone

To sing to, sweet things to

A gay little love melody

I wonder, I wonder

If my heart keeps singing

Will my song go winging

To someone who will find me

And bring back a love song to me

Arista looked at the shore and she saw the Caballeros.

Panchito locked eyes with her and waved.

Arista waved back.

Then she saw the Caballeros leave.

"Come on. Let's go practice for tomorrow's gig" Sam said.

"We're right behind you, amiga" said Jose.

Panchito took one last glance at Arista then left.

The Arista went back to the sea.

"Goodness. That human girl was accompanied by three dashing birds. And the rooster was so handsome" she said to herself.

Arista wondered if she'd ever see the Cabs again.
