Can I be honest with you, Mr. Wind-Up Bird? I mean, really, really, really honest? Sometimes I get sooo scared! I__l wake up in the middle of the night all alone, hundreds of miles away from anybody, and it__ pitch dark, and I have absolutely no idea what__ going to happen to me in the future, and I get so scared I want to scream. Does that happen to you, Mr. Wind-Up Bird? When it happens, I try to remind myself that I am connected to others__ther things and other people. I work as hard as I can to list their names in my head. On that list, of course, is you, Mr. Wind-Up Bird. And the alley, and the well, and the persimmon tree, and that kind of thing. And the wigs that I__e made here with my own hands. And the little bits and pieces I remember about the boy. All these little things (though you__e not just another one of those little things, Mr. Wind-Up Bird, but anyhow_) help me to come back __ere_ little by little.
