£#§†\~.,,, 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 - ,,,,.~\†§#
£#§†\~.,,, ,,,.~\†§#£
@£#§†\~.,, \ \ \ \ ,,.~\†§#£@
