,,,,^»/§£¤ 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 @@¤£§/»^,,

,,,,^»/§£¤ 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 @¤£§/»^,,,

,,,,,,,,^» around by the light shining down from »^,,,,,,,,

,,,,,,,,,, she lay down in a patch of grass. i sat ,,,,,,,,,,
