the man stared at me. did mair speak to you?
she did why? is that strange?
it's unbelievable. she never goes near strangers. come in, said the man.
we talked for a while. as i left, i met the girl again. she darted off.
i followed. what did she mean? she must have misunderstood. perhaps she had taken me for someone else.i called. but she kept on running. suddenly i lost sight of her in a hollow. dazed, i walked back down to the village.
