¨¨@@¨¨@@@@ in this dream i was a girl of maybe ¨@@¨@¨@¨@@
¨@¨@¨@¨¨¨¨ 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 ¨@¨¨@¨@¨¨¨
¨¨@@@@@¨¨@ behind the clothes rack? oof!" he'd @@¨@@@@¨¨¨

@@¨@@¨¨¨¨@ 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. @¨¨@¨@@@@@
¨@@@@¨@@@@ @¨@@@¨¨¨¨@
@¨¨¨@@¨¨¨¨ the building was enormous and mazelike. @@¨¨@¨¨¨@@
@¨¨@¨@¨¨¨¨ 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 @¨¨¨¨@¨¨¨@

@¨@@¨¨@¨@@ 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 @¨@¨@@@¨¨¨

¨¨@@@@¨@@@ ¨¨@@@¨@@@@

@@¨¨@¨@¨@@ 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 @¨@¨@@¨¨¨@

¨¨@@¨¨@@@@ she lay down in a patch of grass. i sat ¨@@¨@¨@¨@@
