¨¨,-^=$££@ sixteen years, together with my dad in @££$=^-,¨¨
¨¨¨,-^=$££ a huge bath house / spa / hotel / ££$=^-,¨¨¨
¨¨¨¨,-^=$£ shopping centre. dad was constatly £$=^-,¨¨¨¨
¨¨¨¨¨,-^=$ pointing out hot girls to me. "you see $=^-,¨¨¨¨¨
¨¨¨¨¨¨,-^= that black-haired thing dissapearing =^-,¨¨¨¨¨¨

¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨ this night he had just tried to woo a ¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨
¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨ girl he called a "mouse" by buying her ¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨
¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨ shoes, but she had accepted them only ¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨
¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨ to run away immediately afterward. dad ¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨
¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨ was a bit bummed but dropped it ¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨
¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨ quickly. i said goodnight to him and ¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨
¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨, went looking for the mouse. ,¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨

¨¨¨¨¨¨,-^= walls, floors and pillars were set in =^-,¨¨¨¨¨¨
¨¨¨¨¨,-^=$ green marble. throughout the house ran $=^-,¨¨¨¨¨
¨¨¨¨,-^=$£ a main boulevard, wide as a street, £$=^-,¨¨¨¨
¨¨¨,-^=$££ framed with clay vases dark as obsidian ££$=^-,¨¨¨
¨¨,-^=$££@ and taller than a person. in each vase @££$=^-,¨¨
¨,-^=$££@# was placed upright a leaf from a palm #@££$=^-,¨
¨¨,-^=$££@ tree or giant fern. the boulevard was @££$=^-,¨¨
¨¨¨,-^=$££ dimly lit, which allowed the pools that ££$=^-,¨¨¨
¨¨¨¨,-^=$£ were generously sprinkled throughout £$=^-,¨¨¨¨
¨¨¨¨¨,-^=$ each floor would reflect suggestive $=^-,¨¨¨¨¨
¨¨¨¨¨¨,-^= patterns on the marble. =^-,¨¨¨¨¨¨

¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨, ,¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨
¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨ following the boulevard, two floors up ¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨
¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨ i found her crying behind two fern ¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨
¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨ vases. she was beautiful, and as i ¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨
¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨ approached, she looked up and sniveled. ¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨
¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨ in the nearest vase she had stuffed ¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨
¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨ both the shoes. ¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨
¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨ ¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨
¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨, i told her to follow, but she didn't ,¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨
¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨,- move or speak. so instead i said to -,¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨
¨¨¨¨¨¨¨,-^ stay there, and ran to get her a better ^-,¨¨¨¨¨¨¨
¨¨¨¨¨¨,-^= pair of shoes that she would actually =^-,¨¨¨¨¨¨
¨¨¨¨¨,-^=$ like. when i returned, having spent $=^-,¨¨¨¨¨
¨¨¨¨,-^=$£ more than i could really afford, she £$=^-,¨¨¨¨
¨¨¨,-^=$££ was visibly impressed. i tried to sound ££$=^-,¨¨¨
¨¨,-^=$££@ cool, saying something like "what do @££$=^-,¨¨
¨,-^=$££@# you think, just because a girl has a #@££$=^-,¨
¨¨,-^=$££@ freaky dad, she doesn't have taste?" @££$=^-,¨¨
¨¨¨,-^=$££ but mouse girl just laughed at me. ££$=^-,¨¨¨
¨¨¨¨,-^=$£ £$=^-,¨¨¨¨
¨¨¨¨¨,-^=$ she then took me by the hand and led me $=^-,¨¨¨¨¨
¨¨¨¨¨¨,-^= out a side route to a closed-off =^-,¨¨¨¨¨¨
¨¨¨¨¨¨¨,-^ rooftop walking garden, full of juniper ^-,¨¨¨¨¨¨¨
¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨,- and thuja. it was a late evening, and -,¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨
¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨, the stars were glittering. being ,¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨
¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨ closed, the garden had its light turned ¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨
¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨ off, but we could still see our way ¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨
¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨ around by the light shining down from ¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨
¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨ the windows of the higher floors. ¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨
¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨ ¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨
¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨ she lay down in a patch of grass. i sat ¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨
¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨ down on my knees, and then crawled ¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨
¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨, closer. she laughed at me again, and ,¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨
