Louise Chatham quotes from H2O: Just Add Water

So like Julia. I always thought the best way was to ignore her moods. And I often carried a tennis racket. It came in very useful.

It was up there. His name was Carl. He was smart, funny, rich...bit of a bad boy, but very good-looking. She told him everything. At first he was very upset. He wouldn't see her for a long time. And then one day he called wanting to meet. I begged her not to go, but she thought she could trust him. She thought he understood. She was so terribly happy...and so terribly wrong! He wanted to expose her to the whole world. He tried telling everyone about us, but people made a mockery of him. No one believed him. Julia closed up after that. She never really got over the betrayal.

It took time, but life goes on. We rebuilt our friendship and our trust. We gave each other the lockets as a symbol of our friendship...our secret. And we swore an oath-keep the secret, be there for one another, and always be friends. She needs you. She doesn't know how much but she does.

Miss Chatham was just telling us about her friends. They sounded great.

Oh well, we didn't always get along. Sometimes we argued. Sometimes we lied to each other. Even best friends will do that. Right, Rikki? My friends and I were all very different. Julia was very headstrong, like you Rikki.

Emma

So she could be a pain?

Oh we were so close until...well, we found out that she had a boyfriend. She wanted to tell him everything. We tried to stop her, but she wouldn't listen. It was our secret too. She...uh, she threatened us. She was too powerful. There was nothing we could do.

Rikki

I don't see what the problem is. Secrets are what make this whole mermaid thing a pain. At least she had someone she could trust.
