' I am sorry, don dallas woman seeking sex Juan.'
' It is all right. You didn't know.'
'Did your benefactor teach you all this about Mescalito?'
'No! Nobody has taught me about dallas woman seeking sex him. It was the protector himself
who was my teacher."
'Then Mescalito is like a person dallas woman seeking sex to whom you can talk?'
'No, dallas woman seeking sex he isn't.'
'How does he teach, then?'
He remained silent for a while.
'Remember the time when you played with him? You understood what he meant, didn't you?'
'
I did!'
'That is the dallas woman seeking sex way he teaches. You did not know it then, but if you dallas woman seeking sex had paid attention to him, he would have talked to you.'
'When?'
'When you saw him for the first time.'
He seemed to be very annoyed by my dallas woman seeking sex questioning. I told him I had to ask dallas woman seeking sex all these questions dallas woman seeking sex because I wanted to find out all I could.
' Don't ask dallas woman seeking sex me!' He smiled maliciously. 'Ask him. The next time you see him, ask him everything you want to know.'
' Then Mescalito is like a person you can talk...'
He did not let dallas woman seeking sex me finish. He turned away, picked up dallas woman seeking sex the canteen, stepped down from the ledge, and disappeared around dallas woman seeking sex the rock. I did not want to be alone there, and even though he had not asked me to go along, I followed dallas woman seeking sex him. We walked for about five hundred feet to a small creek. He washed his hands and face and filled up the canteen. He swished water around in his mouth, but did not drink it. I scooped up some water in my dallas woman seeking sex hands and drank, dallas woman seeking sex but he stopped me and dallas woman seeking sex said it was unnecessary to drink.
He handed me the canteen and started to walk back to the ledge. When dallas woman seeking sex we got there we sat again facing the valley with our backs to the rock wall. I asked if we could build afire. He reacted as if it was inconceivable to ask such a thing. He said that for that night we were Mescalito's guests and he was going to keep us warm.
dallas woman seeking sex it was already dusk. Don Juan dallas woman seeking sex pulled two thin, cotton blankets dallas woman seeking sex from his sack, threw one into my lap, and sat dallas woman seeking sex crosslegged with the other one over his shoulders. Below us the valley was dark, with its edges already diffused in the evening dallas woman seeking sex mist.
Don Juan sat motionless facing the peyote dallas woman seeking sex field. A dallas woman seeking sex steady wind blew on my face.
'The twilight is the crack between the worlds,' he said dallas woman seeking sex softly, without turning to me.
I didn't ask what he meant. My eyes became tired. Suddenly I felt elated; I had a strange, overpowering desire to weep!
I lay on dallas woman seeking sex my stomach; the dallas woman seeking sex rock floor was hard and uncomfortable, and I had to change my position every few minutes. Finally I sat up and crossed my legs, putting the blanket over my shoulders.
