My cold skin was slick with morning dew when I pulled myself from it to start the hunt for a trinket to present Missy with. 552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJEJdYcg5FI
552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1ZrG3DVlCc
I still had some time before her voice would call on the wind. I'd find something beautiful to add to the collection I had already bestowed her with. 552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLklzahifvA
552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX71N5qoQFc
Last time was a crumpled can stuffed with plucked wildflowers. I could do better this time. 552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqlxN8QOUQp
552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvTmnAYToWh
My hunt turned up an empty paper cup still with the plastic lid and straw attached. 552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ623njL2MsV
552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOjtBsjTduC
My heart thudded with excitement when I pulled the straw free to place it down. I turned my attention to the plastic lid that I flipped over and sliced with my claw into segments. 552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYi8p6pY9Eq
552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbbW02hKaRI
Ripping the paper cup along its length, I tore it into smaller segments, each with poked holes in the middle, so I could split it like I had done with the cup and fold in the rough edges. 552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTaYWJ6nfoz
552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu84mSNXGS4
I pushed and crimped the paper until all the layers came together on the plastic bottom. I forced the straw back through, squashing the top into a ball. 552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHuogIASxLb
552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUMkkxehgre
I held up my flower with pride, twirling its torn petals to see it present the flashes of colour that had been printed on the cup. 552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjQhNq83qNz
552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQwWAw3SLwm
Would she like it? Should I make more? 552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2YSDU3qCy3
552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLLjHBnsNQH
I scanned the roadside to see a bottlecap embedded into the gravel there. There was a plastic bag further to my right. 552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡybjEKbKx9y
552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe3atzoXx2G
One would do then. 552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7OmdFk8Zdq
552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkli84Vt4qq
Bartie was already there when I made my travel with the straw gently gripped around my teeth. 552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCBC3e9lqvM
He held a magazine today that was folded on the crossword page. 552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrlvUWPsvYP
552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrnKtPXP0YD
"You be good to her, Soup!" he warned me with a raise of the paper while I continued past him "don't be giving her trouble, you hear?" 552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQFmKs7iEee
552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡktBxggt2Vl
I caught sight of Missy's red hair stuffed beneath her blue helmet outside her house. She had on a dark red trench coat over her yellow dress that tried to peek beneath it. 552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC32G5bvLJY
552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ38A90gkokO
She was going somewhere. She never wore that red jacket any other time. It was her best one. 552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuwpgwU2XbR
552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE9ENSi1RER
I raced along the tracks towards her and watched as she wheeled out her scooter to haul up the stand. 552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKFlTOfdESw
Everything inside me fell at the sight of her laying down a bowl of water and thin vegetable soup in the grass she stomped down. 552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoOHNZUVnwm
552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtcHDmLWz8m
"I've got to go" she apologised through her saddened tone "It’s not much, but I think it should be delicious."552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtwvUkmeEhv
552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcEIY1W0ckR
Wasn't she taking any for herself? The crate was only filled with parcels again. She didn't have room to fit food. 552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQaysReReO6
552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡimRMuZuuSh
I lifted up the flower to her when she sat on her scooter to heave it forwards off the stand. The whole thing lurched but she wrestled it under control so she could start it up. 552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsKOavt5uDG
552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDatINloxv8
"Thank you" she smiled warmly to it, her eyes softening at the gesture "I'll hang onto this, OK? Maybe the people at the big city will like it?" 552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ60lcYHVFSl
552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVF6v2Xijwn
No. It was only for you to enjoy. 552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkd6tZmxxKQ
552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmrhcut21X6
"Got to go!" Missy panicked and shoved the flower down the side of the parcels when she looked ahead to see the train racing along the tracks "love you! Be good!" 552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzV3BXLv2tQ
552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcJEKBjhQNT
She took off as fast as her scooter would allow her. It cut a path through the grass and struggled to keep up as the train easily graced the beginning of the bridge and powered on. 552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCMtDLga2Ui
552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwykupw77wx
I watched her speed for it desperately. Inside, I was hoping she would be just a little bit too late so she would have to come home and enjoy her time with me. 552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡppn4b2oNdc
552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl23ouNDtGB
I saw her skid when she turned the corner to fly across the tracks and rush to park up her scooter while the train pulled into the station with a huff of its brakes. 552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡItNpvday7n
552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡejuh9NWJmI
Her figure fumbled with her parcels and the flower before jumping aboard with only mere moments to spare. 552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlMmSTuFRbY
552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWIZ3a6Xdkq
The train blared its horn then peeled from the station to quickly gather speed past the house. 552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAWu1HKZ1RF
552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpvG8yswLKd
Missy slammed open a window, waving out to me. 552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1kng91d2t7
552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP846uinr4N
"I'll see you tonight, Soup!" she called out "sorry!" 552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeMIPcGyfwB
552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlubZFsu0w0
Her hand hung out the window, waving for a little while longer, until it was pulled back inside by the momentum speeding her off into the distance. 552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡli34brj4CF
552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2TBylLuBwk
I didn't chase her today. I just sat there with the watery soup, trying to drag out its bitter flavour that was far too diluted to even be called food. 552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8xQZdDOYiP
552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHHIjlLkBNM
Not her best. She must have put everything into that nice one last night. It was a compromise she was willing to take. 552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡolx7ed02cx
552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPvV00oeDDV
She'd be gone for hours. Maybe I could do something helpful and try to find a way to trickle some extra funds into her pocket? 552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKPATE6jfP4
552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmGubZYe7X4
I peered back to the house she had left in a hurry instead.552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1pL2OSYPGm
552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmfWl4CisIP
She'd benefit more if I prepared something for her to come home to. 552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB6NKwAGMF0
It'd be a nice surprise to have a warm house and hot food. She could even believe Bartie had waddled his way down here to do it for her. 552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlUUeHuZC73
552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡghEUdRldzm
A stretch, but a believable one. 552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4UWr5KUlok
552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSMkRRo9lo1
I knew Missy didn't have locks on her windows. I could climb through the kitchen one and start there. 552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu6ZKDDll2j
She always locked her front and back doors. There was no use trying that. 552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2dGBDyLC4P
552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyLXCJW5A6k
I clambered over the sink piled with dirty dishes and pots beneath the window, hooking my toes in the basin on my awkward crawl through. I desperately gripped onto the stone bench so I didn't slice my feet on the knives laid across it and go tumbling to the ground. 552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcll44PJyQ1
552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCa3Bk6D6r0
After managing to unfold myself from the kitchen bench, I stood there to grimace at the mess left behind. 552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUgQVdNb5P1
552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkzfCMAjSSK
She really must have been in a rush. The pot from last night was here too with some water in the bottom to soak off the residue that clung to the water like a film. 552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKd3IBhCni5
Utensils littered the cold water I dipped my claws into, and splatters of soup were still speckled across the oven behind me. 552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWgLRSGKitq
552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGP3oqhVLMS
She'd be so pleased she wouldn't have to tackle this when she got back in her exhausted state. 552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZBIk7lCPxg
552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFdJsjk4Dcv
I'd be better to do this in my human form. I could even give it some care too with a hot shower and proper food from Missy's fridge. She wouldn't notice if a little of it went missing. 552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzc3tgGje2x
552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv3cwUxDIm5
I shivered in anticipation at the thought of warm water and soothing soap sliding over my skin. 552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAkTZQ6SlDC
It was a luxury I hadn't had since I decided to live like this. 552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfhKyAEdfaq
People weren't exactly throwing bars of soap or bathtubs on the side of the road either. 552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3DRmAvMZ8Q
552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ58YLAk7Kkn
Finding the shower was easy in her little home with barely any rooms within it. 552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoA7ZpBG2cI
The kitchen and loungeroom beside it were one combined area by the front door. 552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRTsyuEhchB
The door to the left was her sewing room. The one beside that was her bedroom. 552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrtNYTI6VAI
The back door had another to the right of it where I finally found the bathroom and the shower piled with all sorts of scrubs, lotions, and soaps.1234 copyright protection548ＰＥＮＡＮＡnqfS4zST5C 尼

I didn't know how dirty I was until I reformed my skin and stepped into the warmth billowing clouds of heat around me. 552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYoA4kSiopn
The water ran like mud from my body I scrubbed at and slathered with all sorts of food-scented products. 552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbgijRWOseG
My black hair was saved from most of the neglect since it fell out when I took my wild form. Having it sprout back so rapidly made it burn at my scalp I tried to calm with cooling shampoos and conditioners. 552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxuE92Sjtlw
552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqyE3TNJ1Fc
Missy didn't own any clothing that would fit me, and I wasn't about to go digging through her belongings to make sure. 552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV3e7FmlXbo
The dark blue towel I buffed my body with became my new skirt I tied around my waist to have some sort of decency during the housework. 552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWp3dIRlGY9
552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBatsTlYGDO
I flipped on the radio she had nestled on a cupboard in the kitchen and felt the energy of the music flood through me. It motivated me to hunt through the cupboards for spray and cloth so I could start on the splatter on the walls. 552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWxrHm27rui
552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLQiO1TW0hu
I drained the old water to fill the sink and pick through the dangerous submerged mess beneath the bubbles clouding them. I bopped to the contagious tunes, tapping my feet happily while seeing things slowly come together. 552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡshRaCfMrOl

Her couch in the living room had the crushed blanket on it refolded and draped in the middle. 552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYm0nUyAKHO
552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeNzAXOl57Q
The coffee table had the magazines across it restacked into the corner. The empty cup of coffee dropped into the sink, and the ceramic coasters of mosaic landscapes were replaced in their holder. 552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkGGHjtuZ9r
552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSCmgHQUvLk
The back door was thrown open to let through the fresh breeze and filter out the stale air. 552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuwJFEhUbO6
It swept through the home and back out the windows I peeled up to help move the positive energy through the home. 552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu4DBcsjfVI
552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUkWARd7vAW
The garden a few steps from the back stairs was looking choked with weeds. 552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQiUZYMx3hi
I snatched up the basket at the backdoor and headed for the rows of vegetables drooping under the sunlight. 552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ09dg8XN1F1
552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEPBKx1MR5v
Hosing them down filled me with satisfaction. Plucking out the grass and baby thistles gave her beloved vegetables a new hope in their raised beds I skimmed through for the biggest heads I could pluck. 552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAyVJ37KcYJ
552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyzM7zLaPX1
The garden was still in early stages of replanting. I only had a few carrots and potatoes to heap into the basket looped over my arm. The pumpkins tangled in a growth of leaves were far too small to rip from the stems, and the new row of corn was barely breaking the surface of the dirt. 552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIoJcoEanZD
552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFAU3qEpctm
Missy was also trying to grow a little bush of blueberries in the corner. There were strawberries showing promise through their nibbled leaves I lifted up to inspect. 552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsHIGTOPJju
552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcVDxPn5fF4
Looked like rabbits. I'd have to deal with them before she baited them and tainted their meat. 552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCMtAnkKvH0
552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGJs5KlF3Pi
The new vegetables made a nice pile on the benchtop while I fished through the fridge to find the soups Missy had stored into reusable containers. 552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAiVelnDq0u
552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsMJAoOUVnQ
The watery vegetable one could be poured into the nice beef one to bulk it out and diminish the poor taste. With all the flavour in the beef one, the added vegetables would give it more heart. The fresh ones I had washed and cut could help stretch it further for her without destroying her hard work.552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3MHJz1r15f
552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwxfDm6JWnw
The stove clicked and snapped to life to steadily boil the soups I poured into the pot over it. 552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdOUAU6uiGc
552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqVPicW8RZ9
A few herbs from the window wouldn't hurt. I threw them in too and increased the heat before continuing my cleaning of the house. 552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEYh5vsiNty

Music thumped through the silence when I stepped back to admire my work. 552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVOcXFKux5i
The combined living area looked homely and inviting. On the coffee table I had even placed the baby thistles pulled from the garden into a little brown bottle I found sitting beside her bin. 552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWSZLCuehyb
552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Zqn9TzOrC
Somehow, it worked. The spikes of the thistle leaves and the peeking purple fluffed at the top of the close heads added a rugged beauty to the wooden table. It wasn't soft wildflowers, but it was something I was sure she'd appreciate nether less. 552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCHoRxe43Qu
552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡieEBhPsYI9
Saving the soup from the heat, I poured myself a steaming bowl and nestled into her couch to enjoy a job well done. 552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSOHEXIENgg
552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgwSFDV5zw5
The flavour was as hearty as the original batch with the added rosemary clinging to the beef and the basil wrapped into the multitude of vegetables buried beneath the brown broth. 552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlBYpzKIgaZ
552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjlIVQF9845
Missy will love this. There wasn't a hint of the sadness that was the soup she had thrown together today. She'd come home to something that would warm her soul as much as mine. 552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcYZP4FXrI0
552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgBJL3lzZa8
I smiled around my spoon, savouring every bit of warmth slipping over my tongue. 552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsgvXLZF0wk
552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAVy2qdoSEM
It'd be better if she came through those doors, expecting me to be here. She'd smile at the sight of me, and I'd go over to kiss her cheek before asking her how her day was. 552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoFQQaeIGOO
552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO3T06rCjXP
Maybe she'd have stories of the big city to tell? She did like this one man who pretended to be a statue in the square. It fascinated her how resolved he was amongst all the faces refusing to look at him. Missy liked to throw change into his hat just to see him smile. She understood his struggle a little too well. 552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW7BdOorTT5
552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR58fXrClXX
She could come speeding home, screaming out my name and jumping around the house that she sold every one of her dresses today. We'd hold each other and celebrate with a lavish cake from the bakery. 552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3AnaMRS41s
552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi6YR3eklQE
But I had to be gone before she saw me here. I wouldn't get to see her reaction or comfort her if it all went wrong. 552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWpVxlw1KYf
552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0bxRaKMhf1
Missy usually never sold her dresses. I was expecting disappointment that I couldn't chase away. 552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOFAQR2FUV7

Dropping the pot clumsily, I bolted for the back door. 552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjcjBlLhuL4

"Hello?" Missy called out when she stepped inside "is someone there?" 552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwi4aFzgI9H

"Was that..." she hesitated, checking again "...you?" 552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTQeij3adUA

"Did you...?" 552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIWy3D6J2Dm

I wasn't meant to be here. I couldn't be here. 552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl9sW7L3hKY
552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeXGebclpY6
I had to get out. I didn't want to see her fear flitting at me or listen to the way her breathing trembled. 552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7BGBET4dJA

The front door was still open in Missy's pursuit for her intruder. I'd go for that. 552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMyHUN4nCV5
552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLAw8o0NOiN
Missy backed up immediately when I darted around her and raced for the door. I hesitated on the front porch but saw her running after me.552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ478Db8vy44

"Soup!" she called out, arm outstretched. 552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcJqOkRF1hf
552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBsKh2oUcgC
No. She couldn't see me here. 552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDlFNpmQgQM
552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzRptSvvPmW
I scrambled down the stairs as her feet pounded on the wood behind me and slithered through the tall grass to find refuge only a few paces away. 552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdqjeBKNlWw
552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiyfKzxAfAK
Missy gripped the fence, scanning blindly with tears in her eyes. 552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpb4sgH6ERK
552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ20JkHXCk76
"Soup!" her voice called, shaking "wait! You don't have to go!" 552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw3Uncay7sS
552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiS8UsFbOfj
She covered her mouth with the back of her hand to try and stifle the sob that slipped through. 552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSbkGH6mim1
552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡskIvFwNTJH
I wanted to comfort her but knew I couldn't. She was already suspicious of my presence and would confirm her own theories if I returned. I'd ruin it for the both of us. 552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6vYLDrAGA6
552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5oIVnH8o0H
I moved, turning for the safety of the East. 552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaiKyXXqjv3
552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6D5hOB0fbi
"Soup?" Missy sniffled at the rustling of the grass, her head lifting in my direction. 552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSK9drGYxdw
552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoQKACgRVHb
I bolted for the tracks before she could try and call me back, keeping my eyes firmly on the safety of the bridge shrouded in darkness where I knew she wouldn't be able to reach me. 552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkqUs28NnfF
552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjY0KXeF8wN
She would have a clear head tomorrow. She'd sleep on her silly stories and realise that I couldn't possibly have done all that; her simple pet. 552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4T255Z1akQ
She'd be happy, knowing that she would still have no burdens in her life, and things would go back to pleasant chit-chat over food together.552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFNI4JmkU6n
I'd love her silently and she would dream of bright futures where everyone wore her dresses. 552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5ViifK7WGk
It would be how it was. 1234 copyright protection548ＰＥＮＡＮＡamYXfD4arA 尼
