Summary
On a quiet, sunny Tuesday afternoon in January the house looms, larger than life, more than it’s ever seemed to before in all his thirty-three years. As a kid he was scared of it sometimes, how big his house was, with its big pillars and wide doors and many windows and his mother’s watchful gaze around every corner. Some nights he’d come home late after playing with Jonah down the street and stand at the bottom step, wringing his hands nervously as he stared at the house in the nighttime, afraid of the shadows cast under the light of the moon as he thought about his parents waiting for him on the other side. There were days where the house felt too big, while other days he felt suffocated, despite the enormity of his room, Paul’s, Grace’s, every room in the house seeming cavernous in their size.
And after Paul, the house had never been quieter. Never as stifling and tense as it was during those few days after his death. Louis despised it even more.
