"Alright, let's get this show on the road!" Maya clapped her hands together, the sound echoing in the empty, hollow rooms. She'd been waiting for this day for years. A lightness lifted her, as she surveyed the interior one last time.

She skipped towards the kitchen, her mind already swirling with design ideas. The demolition crew had given her the keys to walk through before they started. She bounced on the balls of her feet, as she walked towards the back door. Her vision for the future was bright, and the old house, with all its ghosts, seemed to shimmer in the background. It was a new day, and a new life.
