Summary
“What the fuck.” He whispers to himself. Against his better judgment, he unbuckles his seatbelt and gingerly unlocks his doors, sliding out and taking in the whole scene. Taking a few steps forward, he looks down, and at first, he thinks he’s hallucinating as the ground seems to undulate, but squinting, he can make out little things crawling across the tarmac and then realisation dawns. On the road, baby turtles are shuffling along, barely visible in the quickly dimming evening light, and the man whom he’d at first assumed was having some kind of episode had stopped his car to protect them from the birds.
“You gonna help or are you just gonna stand there and gawk!”
Phainon and Mydei help turtles cross the road, and then they fall in love.
