Someone Like Me

Today I'm meeting someone like me. he was round and pink. he has red feet too. he picks me up with my bowl and started walking to this round structure. he walked inside putting me in my bowl. he then picked up a cup and put it under the faucet. he then started filling a big tank with small decorations. a fell my gills touching the edges of my container. This place is too small for me. I wonder what he's gonna do with me... Is he gonna eat me?

I look around. There are lots of drawers on the table I'm on. They are filled with books and art supplies, as well as pictures of what seem to be his friends. I start to feel myself lose water slowly. It seems he is filling water in the cup again, but I can't tell. I feel myself getting dizzier. then, the relaxing feel of water hitting my skin. That's better. Then the pink sphere picks up my bowl and puts it in the tank. This is WAY better.

"Hello!" I say. or at least try to say wiggling my gills.

"Pepoh!" he says back. I don't know what he means, and he doesn't know what I mean.

Well, I guess I should explore. I look at a huge castle before me. I wonder who lives here? I walk in. It seems empty. Could this be mine? I don't think so. but I should take care of it since the owners are away. I climb the little tree near the castle. I look around. I see a smooth little rock, and a log. I see a little picnic table with plates and forks. I see a statue of... me? Did he know what I looked like? Or is there more than one of me...? And of course my little bowl. I take in this place breathing pure water

Huh? He's taking my bowl away! I swim over into it and lay down. he stops. "Pehpopoh?" I love my bowl. I would do anything for it. He puts it down and smiles.

I think this is a good change.
