Residing Dreams (Chapter 254)

Daddy once told me that the spirit of goodness pervades and permeates through all whom it touches. This was a notion I took fancy to, and I deemed it to be true of Casimir and I. Though we hadn’t kissed each other on the lips since that precious evening, it was clear that growing affections resided. Once in a while we would hold hands, or sit side by side as the sun went down.
I hadn’t been attending camp as much as I had in the very beginning, since I was spending time with Casimir instead. “I wonder what the camp is like,â€? he said to me one day.
“I haven’t been there except once or twice, and it was a while ago. My mother went to that camp, and I went to visit. It’s a girls’ camp of course, so it would be odd if I attended, but I just wanted to see it. I wanted to feel closer to my mother. I remember one time, I was really lucky. It was about two years ago, and I had been really good, or at least I tried to be.
