Have you ever noticed how loud it is in an empty house in the middle of the night? You expect the deadly absence of sound but the space is filled with noise instead. The soft humming of machines, water gurgling in the pipes behind the walls, the soft sighs of floorboards stretching, the quiet rustle of carpet fibres relaxing.

Funny how you never hear them during the day, as if they're all playing dead and only dare coming back to life when they won't disturb anyone. They're very considerate, the things in my house.

It's so sad. It's kind of cute.

I always found that a bit of creepy.

You never worried about the things that hide in the dark?

Not really. How bad can they be if they have to hide?

I would have gone out but I couldn't find my keys.

Can I tell you something? Without you freaking out or worrying, I mean.

No, you can't. I worry even if you tell me nothing. I've been worrying since we were seven.

Are you high

Are we having a bit of an existential crisis, big brother?

Oi, first Ned and now you're taking a turn shitting on my attempts at writing! Although, I admit that 'existential crisis' sounds better than 'I'm bored'.

Waxing poetic about the floorboards just seems like a bit of a warning sign, that's all I'm saying.

I'm fine. However, if I start composing odes to my porridge or something similar to that, hit me over the head or call help.

It's because the house knows that the music it makes is for the night. During the day the music of a house is about people living their lives, the sun, birds chirping, laughter or angry fighting, our voices make the day music. Our actions make it.

But at night, we quiet down enough that the house can write us a symphony finally, and we're on the right wavelength to hear it.

Sometimes nature plays along. Crickets, the wind creaking at the windows, tree branches nearby hitting on things, all of those kinds of things. I love it when that happens.

Poet?

Observant and good with words, then.

There's a lot going on at night. I've never paid attention before and now it feels as if I've missed out.

Changes in our lives often make us observe things that under normal circumstances, we wouldn't.

Are you having trouble sleeping?

I think I love you. But I know I don't, never have, not like this It's all jumbled twisted wrong

It doesn't matter if it's true or not. When I'm involved, everyone automatically assumes the worst. Think of your reputation, woman!

I think I've already seen to the ruin of my reputation all on my own, Robert honey.
