The narrator tells us that he is in love with a boy, but he refuses to tell anyone about it. He asks the boy if he can come to his place now, and the boy replies that he can. The narrator then tells the boy to hurry up, because he is taller than he was before. The boy tells him to lie down quickly, because his shoe size is too small. He says he is too short to wear kid's size shoes, since it is normal for men to wear them. He then shows the boy his latest creation, which he calls "the sparkle." The narrator says he does not know the size of the people who wear the sparkle, since he has not tried it on before, but the sparkle reminds him of sitting in a garden with a cup of tea, and he wonders if it is "freaky." The boy says he has to go back, because the zipper on the dress is stuck.
