Violet approaches as I slide my phone away. “Morning, Vi.”

“Hey, Han. You busy? Wanna help me bring my guys in?”

“Sure.” We have to move the turtles into a separate area when we feed the sharks since we use the same method to feed them. We don’t want one of my girls getting a little overeager and taking a chunk out of one of Violet’s turtles if they swim on over, thinking it’s a snack for them.

Vi hands me one of the colored rods we use to signal the turtles, and we make our way to the top of the tank. It doesn’t take Mate and Sheela long to spot their rods in the water and come over.

“Thanks. It’s easier with two people. I’m on my own today. Leila’s down with something,” Vi says as she hands a cabbage leaf to Mate.

“Something must be going around. The preppers are out a man today, too. Anyway, let me know if you need a hand with anything else. I’m off to feed my babies.”

It takes four people just to feed my girls, then another to operate the shoots that release food into the water at the bottom of the tank to keep the bottom feeders happy. Plus two more who scatter food at the opposite side from where my girls are fed to keep everyone else away.

Walking back into the prep room, I scoop up the bucket labeled Tina. “Let’s go, people,” I call, and everyone nods as we file out of the room, buckets and feeding poles in hand.

There’s one feeder assigned to each shark. Tina is my main girl and the largest of our collection. She’s a ten-foot tiger with a little bit of an attitude. Then there’s Ruby, our blacktip reef shark; Lulu is a lemon shark; and Bertha is a bull. The girls have all been trained to feed from the same spot at the same time every feed.

My phone chimes in my pocket, and I pull it out. Sam has replied to my earlier text.

SAM: We were hungry and two beautiful women were eating alone. It made sense to ask if we could join you.
