I spotted a weird little fish swimming right toward me. It looked totally one-of-a-kind. I put it back in the water, but it swam right back to me. So I decided to bring it home. I quickly put it in the fish tank. It side-eyed me hard. But it was super curious about everything around. I fed it some shrimp meat. I played with it, and it's so smart. When I waved food to tease it. It actually lifted its head and splashed water at me. Its mouth is pink, so cute. Probably new to the place, it was still wary of me. So I grabbed a tiny water gun to play with it. It got mad and rammed the tank. I grabbed some food to calm it down. Slowly, it started responding to me. Since then, my life's been way more fun.
