There are actually multiple characters for the ' and " symbols. Some are fancier than others, looking more like a raised/turned comma; while some are just a straight line. The .txt format is only able to display some of those characters, not all. The ones it can't end up as the squares.
Microsoft Word can be inconsistent in which one it adds when you press the ' or " key. There are settings to tell it to only use one or the other, but it gets complicated.
I think you should be able to write the document in Word, then go to "Save As..." and save it as a .txt file, then open it in Notepad and check for odd characters. It's more work, but it'll fix the problem.
Also, very cute story.
