The Selkie by Mary Jane

One beautiful, misty day on Orkney I made my way to the beach. On the far side of the island through the mist stood a lighthouse. The skerries were slippy and made a slushing sound as I carefully took big steps across them. The sea was as dark as night over by the lighthouse but there was satisfaction in my eyes as I looked into the water and the reflection stared back at me. The water was waving lightly. As I walk across the skerries (slush slush slush)and walked back to the entire and went home what a beautiful day wait suddenly in a far distance I see someone walking weirdly. I said hi and no respond I said hi again and a respond came, “hi”quietly I said hi back you ok and it ran away I said ok and just thought I’d stay a bit longer. So she stopped and said

 “Sorry I ran away from you so we’re do you live?”

 I said  in my head, “em I stay…”

I thought to myself, I will give it a random address. “I live in Grangemouth when I didn’t I live in Glasgow and she said

Ok I live In the wat…I meen em Green banana land I said ok and went home what a weird day.
