067: (Not)Working Girl

[livingmyths]

I'm at the Library today even though technically I don't have to be here. But I do love it so and if it's a day I'm not scheduled to work then I don't feel guilty when I spend most of the time pulling books down and reading through them or going up on the roof to watch over the City and feel the wind in my hair.

That's where I am now. It's cold, but oh so beautiful, and I'm warm enough to get by and I have some food in my backpack so I can have a little roof picnic and lay back and watch the sky and pretend I'm like a bird and could go soaring against the clouds.

Though maybe I'm more like a mouse, liking to hide away in tiny spaces and watch without being seen, nibbling away at whatever I can find and maybe one day having a little mouse family of my own.

I just wish...

Oh, it doesn't matter.

Anyway, if anyone wants to come have a roof picnic with me I'm easy enough to find and I'd like the company!

Bad things such as what?

I... I'm ashamed to say to someone as important as you.

But I did them only to get food or medicine or shelter for the littler ones.

If you did it for the sake of others, then you deserve more respect than usual, Lady Rain. Do not be ashamed of your bravery.

You're too good, saying things like that.

I only speak the truth.

I'm not sure I quite believe that, but it does make me feel better.

Please do. I don't make it a habit to lie.

You are a most wonderful mouse indeed.
