"You gotta make duck lips-s-s." Hence the pinching.
"Not a lot," he replied with a shake of the head. "But dad works-s-s wiff aquatic plants-s-s all the time and is-s fluent in Mermish s-s-so he can talk wiff them anywhere his-s-s res-search takes-s him s-so he taught me s-s-some." He knew a lot more than hello and goodbye though."Goodbye is jai-quay." Natalie didn't notice that he was watching her, she was just trying to pronounce it right. What if she tried to say something to the mermaids and said it WRONG and it was something OFFENSIVE? Then they'd never let her swim in the lake and all of this would be a waste. But suddenly, she felt fingers pinch her face and move her mouth. "OOoooh!" she said (as it was the only thing she COULD say with her lips in such a position) and then she swatted the boys hand away from her face. "Hey!" Natalie eyed the boy with furrowed brows and rubbed her cheeks where he pinched her. "I can make duck lips without your help." Just so he knew.
Natalie lightened up significantly when he said that his dad could speak Mermish. "Really?! So he's talked to, like, real mermaids?" she asked, her eyes sparkling with curiosity and excitement. |
