his — and then she goes back and throws herself on the bed in a maiden rapture!

Mimi has begun to forget the silly games and the mountebank books, with their stories and tales whose fancy has strayed far from her and receded.

Mimi now wants, in her room, a long wide mirror, and a roomy wardrobe whose key stays in her own pocket. And on the night of her fifteenth birthday Mimi clasped her hands tight, shut her eyes fervently, and said: "Lord... make me beautiful — for health and a sound body... are not enough..."

And Mimi resolved to tame her greediness by every means, so as to clasp with ease the belt of her dewy waist.

Her appointment with the mirror never fails. She courts its favor with every experiment of a gesture... or a walk, or a smile, or a shifting of a leg.

In Mimi's heart is a surging wave that plays in her eye and in her head. In her ruling imagination are evenly matched pictures of Apollo, Rock Hudson, and James Dean... the late lamented. And her legs cry out for the storm of rock and roll, and she leaps up chanting, flying... as though the music were made for her legs... and her legs for the music.

Mimi's red handbag is the wrapper of great secrets... in it a lipstick whose tip has melted away, and two cinema tickets: one that Mama knows about, and the other timed to end when the piano lesson ends, on Wednesday afternoon...

As for the songs of the season, she takes care to scatter their dancing lines here and there across the pages of her schoolbooks...

Mimi can no longer bring herself to haggle with the shopkeeper

with yesterday's assurance. And she no longer consents to address the driver in the tone of the day before!...

It astounds her... how far her yesterday lies from her blossom-

ing today... and she wonders, wide awake... How was I? How... have I become?!

Mimi, in any case, wants... and wants... and does not know what she wants!
