Hypermart
It was close to noon when Dawn decided to exit the highway. It was to a small town he had never heard of before and about a hundred kilometres from the pier he was shot at. It would be a great place to find what he needed and swap to a different car in a more isolated spot. Besides, the Cadillac was starting to run low on fuel.
There weren’t many cars in this small town. Most people would be at work, so the mafia boss decided to visit the most way-out hypermart to buy what he needed. For now, he needed to stock up on more food, drinks and some clothes. He didn’t have a lot of money on him even after robbing the fishing yacht. Rich people did not carry with them a lot of cash.The hypermart staff were busy restocking shelves, and housewives were buying their daily necessities, some with young children strapped to their backs. Nobody had time to pay attention to Dawn, so he grabbed a trolley and threw the food he needed into it, along with a carton of water.Related chapters
Dear Don Seat Belt
It felt weird. Was it raining, or was there a school of fish passing by?Aqua cracked open an eyelid sleepily and noticed that colourful sparkles were dancing before her eyes. She had no idea what they were, but they looked pretty. On instinct, she reached out to touch them, but they slipped past her fingers and went behind her.Bleary-eyed, the mermaid woke up and noticed that something was different. She couldn’t move when she tried to flick her tail. Instead, pain shot through her foot when it hit something solid.“Hng!” Aqua bit her bottom lip and reached for her tail when she noticed something horribly wrong.There was a long fabric covering it, but Aqua could feel it at once. She didn’t have scales beneath the fabric, and even her webbed fingers were un-webbed now.“Huh?”Beside her, Dawn watched the mermaid wake up in confusion. Instead of saying anything, he let the bewildered creature recall last night’
Dear Don Land Voyage
The sun had gone down by the time Dawn found a suitable place to rest for the night. It was rather far from the highway in the middle of nowhere. The dirt road and off-beaten trail told the mafia boss that not many people came by. He parked the sedan a little more to the side so that any trucks passing through in the middle of the night could do so without problems.The drive was less boring ever since Aqua woke up. Ever since he started teething, Dawn did not remember being fed by anyone. However, at twenty-seven, the mafia boss experienced what it was like to eat out of someone else’s hand. Aqua insisted on feeding him while he drove because it was too dangerous to drive with only one hand on the wheel. Besides, she had a very convincing reason for doing so.“I want to see a lot of human land before I return to the ocean,” the mermaid sighed as he killed the engine and wound down the window.The night breeze was cool, but Aqua’s legs had alre
Dear Don Bottle
The sun rose as it did the previous day, but Dawn woke up to the sound of someone humming a tune he’d never heard before. It took the mafia boss control not to reach for the gun he’d hidden in the front of his hoodie on instinct.Unaware of the death flag she had just avoided, Aqua continued humming a familiar tune. Watching her tail transform into legs at the crack of dawn for the first time, the mermaid wondered if she would ever get used to it. She took the chance while Dawn was asleep to study her new body parts.Legs were very different from tails. Their bone structures felt more rigid and were not covered in protective scales. Instead, she had a layer of very fine hair on them. More importantly, her anatomy in the lower half was slightly different.Dawn did tell her that if she needed to relieve herself in the middle of the night, she should do it outside. However, Aqua had no idea how to walk. She watched humans do it all the time, but i
Dear Don Baby Steps
“I’ll teach you,” Dawn told Aqua as he searched for something in the back of the car.Hearing those words, Aqua couldn’t contain her excitement. Everything would be fine if they avoided where she tossed the bottle last night. She wanted to know what it would be like to walk and run. Many humans seemed to like running by the sea in the mornings and evenings. Aqua always wondered what was so fun about it. Now that she had legs, the curious mermaid wanted to try.Dawn excused himself for a while to freshen up. He didn’t have much, so he only bought a mouthwash. There were no toothbrushes or shavers. He was spotting a rather nice bristle on his chin that Aqua found interesting.When Dawn was ready, Aqua was already bouncing in her seat. The door was still open on Aqua’s side, so Dawn bent down on a knee to help the mermaid wear slippers. They were slightly too big but not enough to prove a tripping hazard, so he left them the way they w
Dear Don Hypnotise Fishes
The sky grew darker, and Dawn cussed when the radio reported a risk of a tornado arising in the area. He could already see the highway police putting up barricades at some exits. There was no way he could pull off a heist in this state now, a bummer.Although it was a shame to miss such a good location for easy cash, Dawn played it smart and left the state. He drove for much longer than he intended and was running low on fuel when he finally was forced to stop at a different town in the late afternoon.Not everything in life went smoothly according to his plans. His father taught him that early in life, and it was a harsh lesson to learn. However, Dawn was great at improvising. He might not be in the best place to pull off a heist, but he might be able to pick a few pockets in the area.If he were alone, the mafia boss would go straight to a small shop with his gun to demand cash from a register. However, he was with Aqua. The mermaid couldn’t be put at risk bec
Dear Don Showstopper
In just five seconds, nobody knew how to breathe. Dawn couldn’t believe what he was hearing. His eyes were wide behind his sunglasses as Aqua let her larynx steal everyone’s soul with her.He had heard Aqua humming. He had heard Aqua gurgling in her sleep. However, Dawn did not know the mermaid’s definition of singing was literally transforming into an entire choir by herself. Most musicians needed accompaniment for performances. It was very difficult to sing acapella. Most pop stars even required auto-tune to sound decent. How was Aqua doing this?The four men he pulled over over lecherous intentions had their jaws slack in disbelief at the raw gem before them. Aqua continued to sing, and Dawn turned behind. The crowd started to grow quickly, but the mermaid was still clueless as to what was happening.Seizing the chance to slip out of the crowd while he still could, Dawn walked towards Aqua from the side and waited behind her beside a tree in
Dear Don Spicy Request
One. Two. Dawn sighed in relief.Aqua’s tail was intact, and her tail fins twitched under his attention. It was weird to see a fishtail wearing a slipper, but this was probably better than Aqua screaming in agony at the pain of having her fused tail mutilated or worse, becoming a slipper abomination. The same could not be said about trousers, and Dawn refused to put the theory to the test.Unsure about Dawn’s unusual behaviour, Aqua remained silent and tried not to squirm when the human touched her tail fin. She had no idea what Dawn was trying to do, but nobody usually touched her tail fin. Even when her mother was still alive, she never touched Aqua’s tail fin. Aqua didn’t touch her own tail fins either. It tickled and sent strange sensations over her entire body.When Dawn saw the missing slipper, he was finally relieved. The mermaid paused. They must be really important to this human. She made a mental note to take good care of these shoes
Dear Don Cannibalism
When morning came, Aqua was sluggish. It was a huge contrast to Dawn’s alertness from a night of well rest.“What happened?” the mafia boss asked when he noticed how lacklustre Aqua was compared to normal. The mermaid was usually high in energy and bubbly. Seeing her look so sluggish made him feel uncomfortable.“I don’t know,” Aqua answered and immediately started groaning, clutching at her throat. “I feel weird.”Looking at the bag of snacks, Dawn felt remorseful. He should have known the curious mermaid was going to finish everything in one night. She must be suffering the effects of eating too much chocolate now.“I’ll get you something to make you feel better. No chocolates for a while until you feel better. Although they are delicious, too much of it can make you sick.”Sick? What was that?Despite the initial communication confusion, Dawn quickly learned that mermaids don&rsq
