£†»,,,,,,, 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 ,,,,,,,\$£
