Thus, in this article, you will get to know about a short story about the sea through a goldfish in a fun and interesting way.
Journey of Billy to the Sea
One day, Martin bought a lovely gold-colored fish. Billy was the fish's name.
The fish will eventually be released into the sea (when he would be able to survive in the sea with other sea creatures), so he immediately bought a fish bowl to serve as its temporary habitat.
Billy in the Fish Bowl
Martin unintentionally induced a number of phobias in his fish during its upbringing. It struggled with fear of the world outside of its bowl, fear of swimming freely, and fear of discovering everything there is to know.
In order to release Billy (the fish), who had grown into an adult, Martin went to the beach on Saturday, February 8, 2005, together with some other AHA (Animal Health Association) members.
Billy had no idea what to do or how to react to everyday objects like boats and larger fish when he suddenly found himself in such a vast, open area. He also had no idea how to provide for himself or find a place to live.
Billy noticed sharks approaching him one day as he was swimming between the coral at the sea's bottom between two dazzling rocks. Billy whispered softly in fear, and the sharks could hear his gnashing of teeth. Billy, unsure of how to respond, turned to face them and said: – “Don´t eaaaaat me. Pleeeeease!”
Billy in Sea
Don't be afraid, little friend, the two sharks remarked as they laughed and examined him. We won't damage you, but you should use precautions and eat something as well because you are so thin.
Sadly, Billy said:
"I know, but my owner grew me in a fish bowl, so when he brought me here, back to the water, I didn't know what to do. I have no idea where to live or what to eat. Can you help me?
"Sure, little one, come with us," the sharks replied.
Billy went after them.
Billy is now a strong, healthy goldfish with a wide smile that shines in even the darkest corners since he has all he needs. He has a cosy home and two shark friends that help him and is always by his side.
