Amazed

"Oh, I see?" She said innocently. Whether she really understood or not, Keith didn't have time to explain to her at this time.

Keith got on his motorbike after wearing a helmet on his head. He gave the other helmet to Sheera's hands, thinking that Sheera already knew what to do with it.

Sheera held the helmet in her hands in confusion, even though she saw Keith wearing it. But sge still didn't understand what the function of this thing was. She tried to wear it on her head, but it was upside down. Seeing how Sheera wore a helmet on her head made Keith laugh.

"Hahaha...you so stupid! Never mind, let me help you!" He said while helping Sheera put on her helmet.

"Is that so?"

"Yes, come up hurry!"

"Up where?"

"Hurry, sit behind me!" He said irritably, he was starting to lose his patience.

Sheera sat behind Aiden's back and immediately hugged Aiden's waist without permission. Aiden was surprised, he didn't understand how Azura could be so spoiled like this to him as if they had known each other for a long time. He felt uneasy because he could feel Azura's breasts pressed against his back.

"Damn, her boobs is so soft!" He thought. This feeling was quite disturbing.

Aiden drove his motorbike through the streets of London at night. Seeing the scenery around her made Azura very excited. She even almost forgot the terrible incident she saw this afternoon.

"Aiden, look! There's a giant TV on top of the house!" She said while pointing at an advertising board displayed on a skyscraper.

"Don't move too much! Calm down a bit!"

Azura's excitement increased when she saw a palace-shaped building that looked slightly different from Jacob's palace.

"What is that building over there?"

"Buckingham Palace,"

"Buckingham Palace? So that's a palace? Do the king and queen live in that palace?"

"Yes, the British Royal family usually lives there."

"Wow...that's great."

They arrived at the supermarket, after parking their motorbike. Aiden walked towards the door and almost forgot about Azura, who was always curious about what she saw. He looked back, realizing that Azura wasn't following him made him panic. For some reason he felt that Azura would cause trouble.

"Tch, this idiot is just troublesome! Watching her is like watching a child!" He muttered irritably while looking for Azura's whereabouts. His very sharp sense of smell allowed him to quickly find Azura's whereabouts.

Azura stood in front of the glass door, looking confused because she couldn't get in while there were so many people standing a few steps in front of her. She didn't know how to get in there.

"What are you doing?"

"Aiden, how do you get in there?"

"Oh my God, you really can't be ignored, can you? You just have to push the door!"

"Push the door?"

"Look at this! It says push here, can't you read it?"

"No!" She answer was plain.

"You've got to be kidding, right?" This time, Aiden really didn't believe it if Azura admitted that she couldn't read writing.


Azura looked at the words "Push" with a confused face. She doesn't know how to read and write, the only human ability she can imitate is only by listening to and learning human language and imitating their actions.

Aiden sighed, he rubbed the back of his neck which felt sore. Since meeting Azura, he felt like his energy was draining twice as much as usual. He even felt that this was much more tiring than competing in the wrestling arena.

Aiden pushed open the glass door and pulled Azura's hand to follow his steps. This time he wouldn't let Azura wander around again without his supervision.

After taking the trolley, they went towards the meat rack. Aiden bought several packs of beef, chicken and sausages. But when they passed a rack of fish and other seafood, Azura shuddered in horror. In the sea, fish are her friends. She had no idea that humans hunted sea creatures for food. Aiden took the box containing tuna and salmon, then put it in the trolley.

"Are you going to eat it?"

"Of course!"

"H-how about just eating seaweed? It's got worms and-"

"Don't be kidding! I don't eat fish bait like that! I'm a carnivore, don't you know that?"

"Carnivore, what is that?"

"That means I only eat meat, but sometimes I eat other foods too, bread, fruit and vegetables. But if I could choose, I would only want to eat meat."

"You mean you eat the flesh of living creatures, right?"

"Yes!"

Aiden's seemingly relaxed answer made Azura shudder. She didn't know that in the human world, there were also creatures far more terrifying than sharks that hunted fish to eat. Usually sharks and killer whales were the top predators of the ocean, creatures that she and the other mermaids tended to avoid.

Azura started to feel afraid, she thought, was there a possibility that Aiden would also prey on her like a shark preys on fish? If Aiden really liked meat, that might happen.

"Why are you just standing there? Come on, hurry up! We have to buy bread and eggs."
