“Where do starfish come from?” asked Sam.
“From the sky,” answered Stella. “Starfish are shooting stars that fell in love with the sea.”
“Weren’t the stars afraid of drowning?” asked Sam.

She leaned in, and kissed her Marid gently, sweetly. She tried to kiss him the way she’d always thought kisses would be. His lips tasted like the sea.”
