Eva brought Sol and Luis Junior to work with her the next day. They should be back in school, but under the circumstances she decided to let them skip again. Afterall, tomorrow they’d be on Christmas break. The two kids immediately ran out to the dock, only to discover someone new. “Look, Eva!” said Luis Junior. “Cleo has a new friend! Where did he come from?”
Sure enough, there was another dolphin in the enclosure, one that didn’t belong there. A wild dolphin. “I… don’t know,” Eva said. Did he manage to slip in last night and we didn’t notice? She watched the activity, and one thing was immediately clear. The wild dolphin was a male, and he liked Cleo. A lot. And Cleo clearly reciprocated.
Eva went to find Axel and Jose, who were in the sound
