    You Are Just A Guest
    Author

    James T Kelly

    My father lulled me to sleep with physics lectures. My mother took me to libraries to give other people a chance to tell me to be quiet. When I came of age I left the big city lights and moved out east to seek my future amongst words. I write genre stories. That means my lies are a little more fantastical, and sometimes feature unicorns and monsters.

      So we moved in to our new house today. Our first home as a married couple. We didn’t get off to the best start; we didn’t finish unloading everything from the truck until half-six, so now we’ll be charged for another day. Jon said something about it being an omen and I told him not to be so silly.

      Anyway, the house. It’s not an impressive looking place. The brickwork was white once upon a time. Now it’s a tired grey with brown and black stains. It’s crumbling, too, which I hadn’t noticed before. The little gravel garden is completely overgrown, grass and weeds and all sorts. Lord knows what’s lurking in there. The front door sticks to the point that we almost needed to build a rudimentary battering-ram. Though Jon probably would have enjoyed that.

      My first words when we stepped inside were, "It’s
