The Sea, Where We Found Love

Chapter 2: The Crown Princess Celena

[Centuries have passed]

[Ocean Kingdom]

"Hey! Where is big sister Celena?" A beautiful young girl asks the person next to her, who has the same face as hers, her twin brother.

"Maybe she's in her usual spot whenever she wants to escape."

"Really? Shall we go and see her, brother?" She said with a mischievous smile plastered on her beautiful face.

Her brother nodded in agreement, and they went on their way to see their big sister Celena.

As they get nearer to their destination, they saw a ruined building. No matter how many times the twins visited this place, it amazes them how beautiful it is. No wonder their big sister Celena loves this place so much. It is such a gorgeous place to stay. Even if it is a ruin, it is still beautiful; even their father agrees with them both.

Once the twins entered the ruin, they saw a beautiful dazzling woman sitting on a rock. She is reading a book. She looked like a goddess of the sea, her beautiful long black hair elegantly waving like the ocean wave above. Her pointy nose, her kissable red lips, her eyes shine like a gem shining at the bottom of the sea, and anyone in the ocean can quickly notice her beautiful fair skin. Oh, no wonder every merman in the kingdom falls for her. She is truly a catch.

The twins slowly swam near their sister, trying to scare her, but unfortunately, Celena already knows that they are here. "If you two have nothing else to do, you should study instead. Knowledge is one of the important things in our kingdom."

The twins were startled when Celena suddenly spoke. "Come one, big sis! Why can't you pretend that you didn't know that we're here?"

"Nerida, you're a princess. You shouldn't be pulling these kinds of tricks. What would our people say if they found out this behavior of yours?" Celena said calmly.

Nerida's twin brother snorted, "Big sis, you're the one to talk. You're THE crown princess of our Ocean Kingdom, and yet you are running away from your duties. Why are you here reading a book instead of doing your duties as the crown princess of our esteem kingdom?" After hearing what her twin just said, Nerida put a thumbs up at her twin brother. They both got one point from saying that to their sister.

Celena frowned at her young brother. These pairs of siblings sure can make her speechless whenever they refute back at her. "Hey, I'm your elder sister. How dare you talk back to me like that, Clifford?!" Celena put on a pouty face expressing that she feels upset that her young siblings are talking back at her like that.

Seeing that their big sister is acting like that, the twins sighed. Their big sister might be a cold-hearted woman in front of everyone, but she is such a softie when it comes to her family.

There are nine of them siblings. The other six siblings are currently not in the Ocean Kingdom. When they left, Celena was the one who is hurt the most. She loves her siblings to the core, and she would do everything for them.

Celena is the fifth princess of the Ocean Kingdom. Naturally, it should be her eldest child of the king, the first princess to have the crown princess's title, but Celena's oceanic powers are more significant than any of her royal siblings. Because of that, she got crowned as the crown princess and the next one to the Ocean Kingdom's throne.

Truthfully, Celena felt guilty that her elder sister didn't get the title of being the crown princess, but with her elder sister's understanding, the guilt she felt is slowly fading. The first princess, the nicest of all siblings. The first princess took care of Celena, and the others like a mother would do. Ever since their mother died many years ago, her elder sister was the one who took the role of a mother.

"I'm sorry for talking back at you like that, big sis." Clifford swam behind his sister and hugged her. "You're leaving tomorrow, Nerida, and I want to spend this whole day with you. That is why we're here."

Celena felt a warm feeling inside her, but at the same time, sadness is taking over her. She has been living with her family here in the ocean for all her life, and when tomorrow comes, everything will change.

She faced her siblings and said, "Clifford, Nerida, even if I am not here with you, that doesn't mean that we will part forever. Our bond as siblings will stay intact no matter what, my sweet, sweet siblings."
