Fish Tales

[Ever 2648]

Sylvia knelt down at the spongy shore and dipped her right arm into the crystalline waters, right up to her elbow. After a few moments, she withdrew her hand and smiled contently. "Perfect!," chirped Sylvia. She twisted around and let her dainty legs rest in the cool water and watched as the sun slowly made its skyward ascent, bathing the peninsula in its golden light. Sylvia groped blindly around her head, refusing to take her eyes off the sky. At last her fingers found their mark and grasped the fishing pole tightly. She grinned as she sat up to admire the craftsmanship of the fishing rod.

She ran her hands along the length of pole's wooden body, humming quietly. Sylvia stifled a giggle at the twanging of the plucked line, not wanting to wake her mother or Keya. 'So silly! They're sleeping through the best fishing time!' Sylvia grinned at the thought. Lastly she examined the sharp hook at the end of the wire, giving it a few gentle pokes. She let out a quiet yelp then stuck the bleeding finger into her mouth, shaking her head.

Resuming her quiet humming, Sylvia stood and straightened her dress. She loved the black-and-white garb, almost as much as she loved fishing. The dress had been sewn by her momma who Sylvia very much loved. Turning her attention back towards the water, Sylvia, with the poise of an expert, flicked her wrist and watched as the hook soared through the air then landed with a plop. The water rippled outwards from the bobber then returned to its tranquil state.

Sylvia sat placed the rod onto the dew laden grass then joined it. She pulled up her dress a bit then lowered her legs into the water, allowing them to sway back and forth. The rod lurched forward a bit but Sylvia stayed motionless, eyes fixed on the bobber. When it had fully submerged under the water, Sylvia grabbed the rod and flicked her wrist with lightning speed, setting the hook. Grinning from ear to ear, she slowly reeled in her prize: a moderately sized fish that flopped and protested, much to Sylvia's dismay.

"Mr. Fishy! Stop flopping around, I can hardly pull you in!" She scolded the fish a bit more then worked to remove the hook. The hook came out cleanly and Sylvia held the fish up to her face, staring it down. "Your scalies are very shiny, Mr. Fishy!" She caressed the flopping creature then strengthened her grip, ensuring that her new friend wouldn't slip back into the water. Sighing, Sylvia pecked the fish on its lips then lowered the creature down onto her lap.

"We're going to eat you, Mr. Fishy." She grinned, patting the fish on it's head. "It's okay though, 'cause that's what we're 'spose to do! You eat the little fishies and get big, then I catch you and we eat you so we can be big too." Sylvia continued to reassure her flopping friend, stroking the fish's glimmering scales all the while. At last she stood, withdrawing her soaked legs from the water. She wobbled a bit as she regained her balance then skipped over towards a half-submerged net, weighed down by a myriad of stones. "I'll catch you some friends to play with, Mr. Fishy!," spoke Sylvia cheerfully as she lowered the fish into the net. She glanced over at her mother who lay sleeping near the fire then towards the shack that sheltered Keya. She mouthed the words "looooove yooooou" towards her mother's sleeping form then skipped back towards the fishing pole, ready to catch Mr. Fishy a friend.
