The story about Shellina

The story is about a beautiful sea creature called Shellina, who was known for her beauty and obsession with seashells. That is why she got the name, Shellina. Every morning when the sun began to rise, Shellina went out for her daily seashell collocation where she found all sorts of seashells.
One morning, when Shellina was on her daily seashell collection, she found what she thought must be the most beautiful seashell she had ever seen, so she decided to take it with her and add it to her collection. But later that night, when she was about to fall asleep, she heard a voice calling her name. She quickly realized it came from the seashell she had just found and carefully picked it up. She then answered back to the voice, calling her name. The voice belonged to a young female human called Maria, who had heard stories about Shellina. The stories said that if your heart is pure you have the chance to talk with her through a special seashell, but only at night. Shellina, who was a naive sea creature, believed in what Maria told her and as time passed by they soon become close friends. Every night Shellina and Maria talked about everything that had happened during the day, which later evolved into love. Shellina had never been this happy before, but the fact that she was a sea creature and Maria was a human made her sad and she really wished that she could become a human. One night, Maria told Shellina something that made her blood froze. Maria's father, who didn't like that Maria always was in her room, had decided to marry her away to a rich man. This meant that is was the end for Maria and Shellina's love. Shellina managed to convince Maria not to marry this man, and together they made up a plan on how Maria could escape her family and the man she didn't want to marry. But they never got the chance to begin their plan because Maria's father had secretly been hearing everything they said. He destroyed the seashell Maria was using before everything became silence. Shellina's heart broke into millions of pieces and she was never happy after that day. The story has it, that to this day Shellina is still looking for a seashell that can reunite her and Maria again. Even if Shellina deep down knows that Maria might be married to the man, she refuses to lose hope. And if you listen carefully during the night, you can hear her crying while looking for a seashell that will bring her love back to her again.
