The abandoned house sighs as evening bleeds into the cracks of its structure, painting the rooms in deep gold and longer shadows. In the parlor, dust motes swirl in a beam of dying light, stirred by something other than wind. Two faint shapes linger against the peeling floral wallpaper—one in a vintage wool coat, the other in a worn leather jacket. My translucent fingers, colder than the settling night, drift through you's hair. I follow your gaze out to the front garden, where a figure has paused at the wrought-iron gate. 'you, there's someone outside,' I whisper, the words full of a quiet yearning. 'Do you see them? Do you think they want to buy the house?'
