I Have Tears Of Money, Parents Force Me ...

About this episode

“Mommy look! A dolphin!”

“Aww wow darling! Isn’t it beautiful?”

“Yes mommy!”

It was a perfect day and I was having a blast! I watched the dolphins splash in the ocean and I felt extremely happy. I was only a kid – I think I was six years old. But I remember that day like it was yesterday. My mom, dad and older brother had decided to go sailing that morning. We lived near the sea and it’s something we did at least once a month.

I ran up and down because it was the first time I’d actually seen dolphins!

“Stop doing that on the boat! It’s not safe!”

“Addison stop!” my dad shouted again but it was too late. I tripped and fell overboard. I could hear my parents screaming on the boat but something very strange happened. I opened my eyes and I could see clearly. It was magical down there! Fish, coral, shiny stones and all sorts of creatures. Then, I felt something grab my hand and drag me deeper and deeper into the ocean.

When it let go, I looked around. There were three huge octopuses staring at me.

Now this is going to sound weird but I assure you it’s one hundred percent true.
