    The fisherman

    What is the story about?


    Nardo and his father were fishermen.
    They lived in a barangay near the river.

    Most of their neighbors were fishermen.


    One day, Nardo and his father went
    fishing. They carried their net and rode
    on a banca. His father threw the net
    into the river.
    After a while, father said, “I can’t pull the
    net.
    Somebody under the river is holding the
    net.”

    I’ll dive in and see what is holding our net


    at the bottom of the river,” Nardo told his
    father.
    “No. my son. This is the deepest part of
    the river,” said his father.

    “But Father, I can swim very well. Don’t


    worry,” said Nardo.
    So Nardo dove into the river. He
    reached the bottom of the river.
    There he found a cave. He entered into
    the cave and saw pearls and other beautiful
    stones on the floor of the cave. Then he saw
    a beautiful girl smiling at her.
    “Who are you?” asked Nardo.

    “I am Ana. A witch changed me into a


    mermaid to guard these beautiful stones. I
    watched you every morning. It was me
    who held your net this morning.”
    “Please let the net go. My
    father will pull it,” said Nardo.

    “Yes, your father has pulled


    the net already,” said Ana.
    “I must go now. My father is waiting for
    me,” said Nardo.
    “Yes, you may go. But don’t tell anyone
    about me. Something bad will happen to you
    if you do so,” said Ana.
    Nardo promised not to tell anybody about
    her. He returned to the surface of the river. He
    went home and found his parents crying. How
    happy they were when they saw him. They
    asked him many questions.
    But Nardo didn’t tell them about the
    mermaid.

    Since then, he visited the mermaid


    everyday.
