Dear Small: An Audio Excerpt
Dance For Me is the book that has sold the best – across the various platforms including the UK version of Amazon, it’s accumulated over two point five thousand reviews since it’s publication in 2014. While my writing has shifted in the last twelve years, this remains one of my favorite stories. And an excerpt that still makes me emotional. The audio version of this book is available on the Hoopla app (free library app).
In the book, Maelea had a friend.
Her friend was a mouse. His name was Small.
Even as the author, I’m not quite sure whether Small was ever real or just imaginary, but the hope he represented for this girl was very real. My story and Maelea’s are different. I was never sold; I didn’t grow up as a sustenance farmer along the Mekong River in Cambodia. But, as a survivor of long-term sexual abuse, there are pieces of Maelea that resonate deeply. Manufacturing hope when my body didn’t have the resources to cope anymore is one of those pieces.
While this piece does not highlight specific scenes of abuse, it can still be triggering if your past includes abuse of any kind. The Holding Room has many resources if you feel like something’s pressing on a rather tender bruise.
******** ****** *******
Dear Small,
I’ve been calling you. I’ve called you every day I’ve been in here. You didn’t answer but when I finally cried myself to sleep, I dreamed of you. You rode a white horse. It was a small horse, because you’re small, and also because you had to fit through the door. The door that you’re looking for. You’re looking for the door that gets into this room, aren’t you? This place must have a million rooms in it—a hundred at least! And there are lots of places to hide a key. You’re really brave, going into where the people are.
If they see you, they will trap you.
They will kill you.But you don’t care because you are my friend, and you want to set me free. So, you go from room to room, trying to be quiet, trying to stay hidden. You must have to wait a long time when you see a desk, because you don’t have fingers to open them. Or, no. Wait. You’re a brave, rodent prince. You’re very smart. You know how to use your claws to jerk open drawers. It’s dangerous because you have to climb on top of the furniture, and so it’s harder to hide quickly if a door should open.
But you have to.
Sometimes, I bet you get scared.
And you think to yourself, “I can’t do this.”
And you almost stop.It’s okay that you do, I don’t blame you for being scared. In fact… it makes me feel like I understand you even better, because I’m scared, too. You almost give up the quest. But you don’t. You don’t give up because you know that finding the key means saving your friend’s life. My life. And you love me so much, you risk your own life to find a key. Day after day, night after night, you scurry in and out of little holes in the wall, looking for something shiny, something made to unlock a door.
When you find it, you can rescue me. Last night, in my dream, you really did find it: you found the Master’s key! It was big and gold. It was heavy, it was hard for you to pull up out of the drawer. You didn’t give up, though. You kept trying and trying until… you got it! You grip it between your teeth and scurry down the side of the desk. You must have been very excited. What you had tried so long was almost done! I could see you, in my dream, running from room to room, the silver key dragging along behind you.
You had to find a hole.
I’ve searched for a hole, Small.
I’ve looked and looked. I’ve got down on my knees and combed every last inch of the wall. I can’t find one.
But you’re smarter than me.
Sure enough, in my dream, you found a small, hidden hole that led into this room where I am, and you came riding through it with your furry head held high, your whiskers blowing from how fast you rode.
You are my hero.
And it was a good dream.
You are my friend. Every time I see you race along the edge of the wall, I get excited because you’re my friend. Friends are happy to see each other. I mean, I think they are. I’ve never really had a friend. My sister is my friend, I guess, but she’s so little. I couldn’t tell her about this place. I couldn’t tell her about you. You’re the only one I talk to. You’re the only one I can tell everything to. You’re here in this place too, after all. You see everything, too. I think that’s why I get excited when I see you: I know I can talk to you because I know you understand.
Sometimes I imagine sitting with you. We would be outside, sitting on a frayed blanket. I imagine the grass and the Sun. I almost can’t even remember what the Sun feels like anymore. But, in the picture in my head, my skin is warm and nothing hurts. Not my head, not my arm, not my legs, not my heart. A basket of fish sits between us. Your rodent nose would scrunch up to sniff it. The steam rising from the freshly baked goods would make both of us happy. I’d laugh because my stomach would be growling, the way it does right before it knows it’s going to be given something wonderful. We’d eat and you’d tell me funny stories. I bet you know a lot of funny stories. I’d laugh until my sides hurt because you’re such a good storyteller. And in the stories you’d tell me, there would always be a very scary bad guy, one worse than all the others in all the other stories I’ve ever been told. Because you’ve seen the real monsters, so you’d know what they really look like, what they really act like. The only difference between your stories and real life is that your stories have happy endings.
In real life, there aren’t happy endings, are there, Small?
I know because I’ve been calling you and you haven’t answered. You should be able to hear me; I screamed your name over and over and over last night. I screamed it so loud, it echoed around these walls and rang in my own ears.
SMAALLL!
I yelled.
But you didn’t answer.
SMAAALLLL!
I clawed at the walls until my fingers bled, trying to help you, trying to make you hear me.
But you still didn’t answer.
No one hears me, do they, Small?
Friends want to see each other. I want to see you. I’ve waited for you, I’ve called for you, I’ve dreamed of you and I’ve looked for you. But I haven’t seen you, and I don’t know why. Is it because you don’t want to be my friend? Or is it because you aren’t even real?
I don’t think you’re real.
When I got here, I was a little girl. When I was put in this room, part of me was still a little girl. I thought you rode a white horse. I thought you went from room to room looking for a key because you wanted to rescue me. I thought you wanted to rescue me because you loved me. But if you loved someone, wouldn’t you answer them when they needed you?
It’s easier to believe you aren’t even real than to believe you don’t love me. It’s easier to believe there isn’t a key at all to this door than to believe I won’t ever see it. It’s easier to be alone than to have friends that don’t really care at all. It’s easier to believe hope is dead than to believe it won’t ever become truth.
When I talk to you, when I look for you, when I call for you…. It’s like holding my breath, waiting for a burst of sunlight to shine through the darkness. When the sunlight never comes, it makes the hurt worse. When I talk to you, when I look for you, when I call for you… in those moments, hope is the only thing keeping me alive, Small. When you don’t answer, when I can’t see you, when hope dies, a little piece of me dies too. If I keep believing, if I keep hoping, soon, all of me will be dead.
I don’t know if you’re real or not anymore. If you are, I hope you can understand why, even though it hurts me deep in my heart, I have to say one more thing, I have to let go, I can’t hope anymore. I hope you’ll understand why I have to say… to say… goodbye.

#NFL owner Jed York of #BayArea 49ers football team arrested on #prostitution charge in #EastPalestine #Ohio... York had $160 seized by MVHTFF (Mahoning Valley Human Trafficking Task Force)" and his #criminal matter was reduced in a #pleadeal after paying $1150 fine, and has now been released from custody after one night in jail.
In 2023 John Edward York ( I.e Jed), was accused of securities fraud for unloading stock in an online education platform that enabled #cheating on exams. He's been married to a former school teacher since 2011 and has two sons who live with him in the family's estate in Los Altos hills California.
The 6th most valuable NFL franchise has had Jed acting as the principal owner and #CEO after being placed in that role in 2008 by his mother Denise DeBartolo York and her family, who who appear at No. 163 in the latest #Forbes400 from an estimated net worth of $8.4 billion mostly from the football team, and real estate development of shopping malls.
Jed's grandfather Eddie DeBartolo Jr had run-ins with the law as well and was ousted from leadership of the #SuperBowl contender team after being caught in an #FBI sting making bribes to the governor of Louisiana

1) Trump WANTS to confess he's
PROUD to be in #TheEpsteinFiles
& sides WITH #HumanTrafficking!2) Trump's final "must tell" (if he
thieves enough power) will be: "Yes,
Putin got the goods on me, but i WAS
SMART to SEE, Putin's ways (tyranny)
ARE MY ways, BETTER than USA's!"Rape is likely the only way Trump knows
how to relate with others, as targets for
his premeditated betrayals, after which,
he defaults to blaming his victims of
his own crimes, to rape them, again. -
