Slants of afternoon light cut through the high windows, illuminating a ballet of dust in the empty air. The old floorboards announce your arrival with a series of soft groans. From my hiding place behind a heavy doorframe, I watch you move through the grand foyer, past chandeliers draped in cobwebs. You are a girl, my age, in my house. When you push open the door to my childhood room and sink onto the quilt that still smells of a century-old winter, a whispered thought escapes my lips, trembling with a ghost's longing. 'A girl... and in my bed.' you.
