His Room
MyFella and I bought a house about 5 years ago now. Probably just about 1,000 square feet, a very typical rectangle house. I don't know why they're called Ranch style, it's a rectangle.
We had made the offers, made the deposits, and were going through the process of inspections. MyFella had found the house online but hadn't seen it, he took my word for it and we were going ahead.
OurJamie and MyFella came to town and I had arranged an appointment to see it, which was a little bit irrelevant because we were so far in the process. But it was a fun thing to do, to take OurJamie and MyFella to see the house.
The bedroom that would be OurJamie's is nice sized for a ranch house. The real estate agent had said so too, knowing that OurJamie's comfort in the home was important to me. It wasn't a tiny room, plenty of room for a full sized bed and a dresser and his things, a standard closet for his things. His room, his things.
I told Jamie standing there, "This will be your room. This will be your bedroom." He goes in and shuts the door behind him.
The house is completely empty except for us. Not a crumb or a piece of furniture. His room is empty. He goes in and closes the door behind him.
I looked at MyFella and he said, "You said it's his room. There's no reason for us to be in there."
