The movers were finishing their last trip. He stood on the porch, watching them load the truck, a faint smile playing on his lips. The house was now his. He took a deep breath, savouring the scent of fresh paint and blooming flowers.

He spent the rest of the day unpacking, arranging his things, and making his home. He felt a sense of pleasure in the simple act of putting things in their proper place. His fingers traced the edges of the bookshelves in the library.

He felt something different about the back wall. He pushed and the wall gave way, revealing a small, hidden space. He smiled and walked inside.
