Inside the Storm

"The Chief of Defence has ordered that everyone who aren't Merfolks should stay indoors for the storm's duration. That includes us."

Francis announced to everyone in the living room while carrying his kid.

"Though this one seems to be stronger than the ones I've been through before."

While we understand the meaning behind the announcement, some of us don't like it.

"Feels like we're being underestimated."

I couldn't help but speak out for Gerald and John.

"I know you three are battle-freaks, but a storm is not something you can fight. Unlike in Bovalia, storms here are magnitudes stronger and could send boats flying if they're not tied to the ports."

"Just listen to Francis, Rose. It's not like you haven nothing else to do. Everyone should just take the next few days as holidays while keeping the dorm house fortified."

"Fine..."

I don't understand it myself why, but for some reason, my body feels restless.
