She and Frank play games such as Hide and Seek and Who Can Hold Their Breath the Longest (Frank wins that one!), they dress up for Halloween together, and she writes Frank lullabies and valentines.
But one day Frank doesn’t come out from his hiding place and isn’t interested in his fish food. A few days later he has died and she is inconsolable. Frank was her forever friend, and she could never love another fish. Or could she?
