According to Zooey and Bear, the driver had never heard of a hill where great stories grow. At least not around here. "I believe I've heard of a story-bearing meadow, learned about it back in school," the man had told them. "But wasn't it supposed to be in Massachusetts, somewhere back east?"
"But we hardly know the guy," Zooey adds now. "Who knows how much he knows."
Fup stands, stretches, walks a small circle, and flops onto her side. Soft dirt, green grass, blue sky.
Bear asks, "What do you think, Fup?"
She thinks the mall's landscapers recently applied a heavy chemical treatment to the lawn because her paws taste like they used to in Toledo when she'd sneak out with her sisters to flirt with the boys in the courtyard behind the shoe store. The faintly metallic odor that always gave them away, though it took months to figure out how their parents always knew where they'd been.
"Cesar's nieces work at the pet store," she says. "Maybe they can help us."
