After P'Kit went to hell with P'Singto, two human companions of his master, namely Bright and Knot had surrounded Arthit and bombarded him with questions.
" Arthit, do you not remember me the slightest bit ? " The dramatic human with funny expressions asked.

" No..." Arthit replied firmly " Is Arthit supposed to remember you,human ? "

" Yes! " Bright human answered, clutching his heart in obviously fake hurt " It pains my heart that you forgot beautiful nights we spent drinking from Kongpob's stash and the wonderful hours I taught you strip dancing ..."

" Arthit helped you steal master Kongpob's wine 😳? " Arthit gasped "That's treason! Arthit forgot his petcode and committed treason ? Oh my little mermaid 😔. This human must have siren blood, he bewitched Arthit and made him commit henious crime... or may be Arthit did it for exchange of information... thus human is mentioning something about strip dancing ... Now what do Arthit do, little mermaid🙏 please help prince Arthit🤴"

" Hey, Arthit ...merman " Bright tried to interrupt Arthit but the merman was in his own world, terrified of the consequences of his crime.

"Now master will execute Arthit for it and Arthit will never get back his tail 😢, he can never go back to sea and prove that Arthit is wisest mer prince😭..."

" Hey, Arthit, calm down.. Arthit would do no such thing " Knot tried to cajole Arthit by placing a hand on hus shoulder and gently shaking him out of trance but it was definitely a bad strategy . For the moment Knot's finger touched Arthit's bare torso, he got apparated in to the kitchen where Kong was whipping up chocolate milk for Arthit .

" Phi Knot ! " Kongpob shrieked as soon as his eyes fell on Knot and much more that he would never want to see in his worst nightmares " Why are you parading naked in my house ? "

" Ask that to your merman " Knot sparked while snatching the curtain from a nearby window to cover his raining dignity.

Kongpob threw him a sympathetic glance but as soon as his brain caught implication behind it, he ran to his bedroom. Arthit must be feeling unsafe and anxious, only in such times he apparates people away from him, Kongpob had first hand experience of it.

He also got to see a very much naked Bright who thought shaking the information out of merman about disappearance of his best friend Knot was best move. Now, he was sitting stunned on a sofa, unbothered about his nakedness. Kongpob threw the kitchen towel in his hand and ran upstairs.

" Arthit ... Arthit ..." he called but the merman was nowhere to be seen.

" Arthit .." Kongpob searched every where, even bathroom but Arthit was nowhere to be seen... tye way bedcover was flung, Arthit had left it in a hurry. Calming his mind and taking deep breaths, Kongpob revised the situation at hand, in hus mind. Arthit was feeling insecure and threatened for something. Since, he doesn't remember layout of the house, neither remember how things worked, he didn't go to bathroom to hide in the tub which he feels safest. Kongpob now searched behind and under the furniture in his room and found Arthit in his cupboard, naked, shivering and terrified out of mind. His elbows and knees , also is arms and side of right cheeks had scratches marring his flawless, glowing skin.

" Arthit ..." Kong called gently, mindful of not touching the merman, lest he join the naked gang resting downstairs.

" Did P'Bright and P'Knot say something that scares you ? " Kongpob asked. Arthit shook his head, fat tears rolled in his eyes. How caring was his master and Arthit was such ungrateful, traitor pet, giving away master's property behind his back to his traitor friends. A small sob escaped hus lips which gave way to another sob and another.

" Do you not feel safe here ? " Kong rephrase " I understand if you feel uneasy among us strangers and would want to live with your P'Sing and P'Kit. "
Arthit shook his head hastily, his sobbing now converted to full blown ugly crying ... he threw himself at his master, earning more scratches in the process.

" Arthit is traitor... he offered Bright human alcohol from master's cellar. " Arthit spurted amidst crying... " Arthit gave away master's property behind his back...😭Prince Arthit apologizes master, he is bad pet🙏🤴.. now you will kill Arthit and Arthit can never see his Mae and p'Kit."

" Whoa..." Kong gasped " Why would I kill my beautiful family member who had played a perfect host to my friends in my absence. I must reward my dear companion, right? "

" reward Arthit ? 😳"

" Yes, P'Bright and P'Knot had come to meet me and I was away so you played host and offered them wine and anger snacks.That's what P'Bright was referring to ..." Kong explained.

" Human also told me about teaching strip dancing ... was Arthit very God strip dancer 🥺? " Arthit asked, hope shining in his eyes and Kongpib didn't have heart to kill that hope.

" I am sure you were, I never got to see one of your dance routines but you did vow in my presence to become best strip dancer in the world " Kong chuckled remembering the incident, he stroked merman hairs " Can I take you to bed now ? "

" But, interspecies breeding is dangerous, master😬"

" What😰 .." Kong sputtered..." Not that way😳 " he was red to ears. " What I meant is you are not used to using human legs, so you can't walk . Therefore, can I pick you up and put you on bed, where I can address your wounds and you can rest comfortably? "

" Yes master, Arthit is your pet. You can do everything that is good for Arthit😇. " Arthit replied looping his hands behind Kongpob's neck " Arthit never asked his pet sharks if he can groom their teeth, they hated yearly teeth sharpening but what need to be done must be done🙃. " Arthit provided useful insight from his time as a master.

Kongpob sat Arthit on the bed and covered his lower half with the duvet.
" Let me bring the first aid box. " Kongpob brought out a small box from bathroom and started tending to Arthit's  wounds.

" It will sting a bit na.." Kong informed dabbing alcohol over the wounds to disinfect them.

" Master punishing Arthit ? 😶😔" Arthit lamented.

Kong fluffed Arthit's  hairs, the merman right now resembled a wet puppy with drooping years.
" Arthit , I am not punishing you. Even if you do commit a mistake, rather than punishing, I would like you to recognise and reverse your mistake and learn from it. " Kong provided while applying ointment and dressing the scratched that needed it.

" Master is very soft🤗🤭. " Arthit noticed.

" Yep... I don't  like punishments " Kong smiled.

Arthit was a bit relieved, he has indeed a good and lenient master.

After Kong dressed his wound, he opened his cupboard and asked Arthit to choose from his wardrobe. Arthit choose a sea green shirt and blue shorts as both of them reminded him of his home – the north seas.

Kong helped him wear the garments, Arthit's sad mood was uplifted when he noticed his clothes smelled like his master. It was such an honour to wear master's  clothes!

" Arthit, I will be back in five minutes with food, can you promise me to not apparate P'Knot and P'Bright and also you will not vanish their clothes ? "

Arthit nodded, his head bowed slightly as his cheeks colored due to embarrassment. Kongpob hurriedly chose some clothes from hus wardrobe and raced down the stairs...

😇😇😇😇😇😇

As master left, Arthit sat contemplating over his life. He had finally reached land but lost his beautiful tail and his wonderful memories and with that all remembrance of his smartness and brave tactics. How sad! Arthit wonders if it was work of a siren ? P'Kit even mentioned those foul creatures... Arthit is glad he also injured the siren. If only he would remember the tale to tell to his junior's! 😔

Now, all he remembers is his bittersweet life in Kingdom of north seas. He was favoutite child of his Mae and por - the King and queen but to prevent him from running away with some foreign creature, like P'Kit did, they locked him in a cold, dark dungeon😬. It was also because he helped P'Kit in running away .

Since childhood, he was loved by adults but people his age somehow avoided him, he had only handful of friends. A kind octopus Ai Knot which eerily looked like the human currently standing beside his master, he also has a sting ray and a crab friend, all of them, he can't really hug. But he missed his friends dearly.
Sometimes they used to sneak out and play for hours at end, he loved those days. Now, who will play with him? And how will Arthit play with these weird plain , one colored legs ? Arthit's beautiful tail 😢 😭 ....

Arthit closed his eyes and sighed remembering all the happy memories of sea... P'Kit had told him that Arthit had come on an adventure, to research about land and to find his human mate , also told him that his master would help him find his mate and gain memories. Hmm... This human seems to be important amongst human. Arthit had noticed the fine fabric human wore and the way he spoke, the way he carried himself was not ordinary. Arthit wonders if this human has some association with royals 🤔... then, this human must know Arthit's mate too... afterall a prince gets prince or king for a mate like his p'Kit got his P'Singto.

That means, Arthit must impress the human. What can Arthit do to impress the human, little mermaid🥺 ?

Arthit was smart, he instantly found the answer. He will impress Kongpob with his intellect and will follow pet code to 'e'. 😎😌

As Kongpob returned, Arthit let Kong feed him. Knot and Bright also ate with them. Arthit noticed that Kong was eating less and feeding him more, so he redirected the spoon Kong held to him, to Kong's  mouth and he could swear on little mermaid  that the smile he got from his master could light the whole world.

" Master, where are Arthit's  journal? " Arthit asked.

" Journal ? "

" Yes... Arthit came here to research on humans and study earth, he must have recorded his experience 🤔 and observation💁" Arthit wondered.

" I know no such journal. "

Arthit hung his head sadly. He didn't  record his observations?

Seeing him sad, Knot tried to tackle the situation  " You can always start afresh, right ? " He asked. " And when you get back your memories and find your journal, you will have two views of the world. "

" True 👏 " Arthit clapped in glee " You are a smart human."

" But how are you gonna write? You don't  know how to write.." Bright pointed out, definitely proud of himself. Seeing Arthit's  lips mounding in a pout and shoulders slouching in defeat, Knot and Kong wanted to flick Bright's head.

" Don't  worry dear, Bright is here " Bright chirped " I will teach you how to write. Bright bird can upgrade your vocabulary.  "

" No..." Kong was horrified, the damned bird had made his life living hell before.

" But Arthit loved having Babo around, and Babo had taught many things to Arthit. It's a brilliant plan" Bright defended. 

Arthit critically examined the human, to be honest he had not got much trustworthy vibes from him, atleast about intelligence, yet the human had this unique aura that Arthit can't  catch.

" Babo ? " Arthit asked, the name sounded familiar yet stranger at the same time.

" Bright bird aka Babo is P'Bright's pet bird, you loved having her around." Kong provided.

" Arthit thanks you for giving your pet, human 🙏😌"

" No worries" Bright waved a hand " So when do we start ? "

" Right Now...👏🤗🙃😇🤴" Arthit clapped excitedly, he turned to look at his master who looked ashened but smiled tightlipped as soon as Arthit looked at him.

Knot and Kong could only think about the horrors that was to ensue....

" Come on student , let's  open the notebook and get to work." Bright's  excited voice and Arthit's  giggle only sounded like alarm bells of warning to Kongpob!

🤭🤭🤭🤭🤭🤭🤭🤭🤭🤭🤭🤭🤭

A/N : Hmm... what do you find confusing in English?

Now, Bright has shouldered the responsibility to teach Arthit. Let's  see who teaches lessons to whom ? 🤭😆
