Chris wanders the aquarium, catches glimpse of a woman~ is she in the tank? Does she have a tail? Is she following him?
His imagination is playing tricks. Every visit, he sees her more and more, and she haunts his dreams.
His dreams are vivid scenes with this mystery lady, a siren singing songs of lost lore, love of mermaids for the men who protect the oceans depths and secrets.
Over time, his dreams become increasingly involved with this woman. Sexual encounters deep in her sea sanctuary.
The aquarium is where Chris finds peace sitting in the dark, watching the giants of the underworld swim aimlessly through the brightly colored corral reef. He is often in a trance, watching an elegant dance of prehistoric beauty.
One day, feeling completely out of touch with his world, he seeks solace in the aquarium. Sitting alone, he spots a woman in the room, she looks like she has the attention of all the fish in the tank. She looks familiar, perhaps he had seen her here before.
Was she another who shares getting swept away watching these magnificent creatures of the deep. He dreams of one day talking to her ~ for now, we share the dark haunting glow of the blue magical depths before us.
She bought her lunch. I have mine as well. Perhaps we can share a meal. I move over, not wanting to disturb her, but fascinated by her features in the shadows of the blue light.
She is slim, petite, wearing a light purple top and pants. I wonder what else she might have on underneath. She sneezes, I whisper a quick 'bless you' and she glances my way. Our eyes meet, and she silently mouths 'thankyou'.
