@,,@@@@,,@ 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 @@,,@@@,,,
,,@@,,@@@@ say. he was always very creepy about ,,,,,@,,@@
,,,,,,,@@@ this, going for girls my age. @@@@,,,,,,
@@@@@@,,@@ @@@,,@@@@@
@@@@@,,,,@ 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 @@,,@@,,,,
,,,,,,,,@, 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 ,,,@,,@@,,
,@,,@@,,,, said - @@,,,,,,,,
