Description
"Can I take Mouse for a walk?" I ask, and I'm always allowed.
We set off, very slowly. Mouse walks at a snail's pace. He stops at lampposts and fences and sniffs for a long time.
Sometimes he looks up at me and then I usually say something.
I maybe say "old man" in a very nice voice, not my usual one.
... I wish Mouse was mine.
