The House That Makes You Remember

Old House

The old house had a habit of making people remember things they had forgotten.

That was the first thing my friend’s mother told me when I arrived that summer.

She said it casually, almost like a joke, while carrying a basket of freshly washed blankets upstairs.

“Don’t worry if you hear the house settling at night,” she said. “It’s been here longer than any of us.”

I laughed because I thought she was trying to make an old house sound charming.

At the time, I didn’t know that some places don’t settle.
