Prison

made a miracle of it


 
 

Many, many years ago, a furious father closed his daughter in the room she was assigned to the house. Because of not have obeyed him, he said. The girl could only have a single object that she liked. She asked her pillow lace. Over time, she made a prodigy of the room. A world. She never needed to get out. And the furious father died of sadness.
