Mutual

Entering the real estate agency, she knew exactly what she was looking for.

But… would she find it? Her needs were quite specific. For several years now she had felt the desire grow. It had got to a point where she simply didn’t want to go out. Her dream home needed to be a basic one-story house, in some rural setting and extremely remote.

Having listened to her description, the man in the office was most understanding and said he knew just the place. With that, he delved into his desk’s bottom drawer and took out a tatty dog-eared file. That was it! That was how it happened. The house was ideal. It had been on the market for as long as he could remember. It had been all but forgotten.

Meanwhile, the house certainly felt forgotten. In fact, it was lonely. It had been so long since people had moved around in it, making all the noises that a house should hear. Now, knowing that a new owner had moved in, it was determined to establish a status quo. It felt the new presence and was delighted. It would certainly suit the house, never to be lonely again. For her, it was a dream come true. It would certainly suit her, to no longer have to go out.

She stood for a moment in the lounge, the room itself was ordinary enough, but she was most comfortable in it. It would be her favourite. She sat down in the comfy armchair.

It was then that she heard a series of clicks and thumps as the house shut itself up, tight.

Maybe their desires were mutual.

  2. naturally like your web-site but you need to check the spelling on several of your posts. A number of them are rife with spelling problems and I find it very bothersome to inform the truth however I will certainly come back again.

  4. You actually make it seem so easy with your presentation but I find this matter to be really something which I think I would never understand. It seems too complex and extremely broad for me. I’m looking forward for your next post, I’ll try to get the hang of it!

  5. This is the suitable weblog for anyone who desires to seek out out about this topic. You notice a lot its virtually onerous to argue with you (not that I truly would need…HaHa). You definitely put a brand new spin on a subject thats been written about for years. Great stuff, simply great!
