The Orphan Choir
“It is falling in love. I knew it was going to be. I knew Swallowfield would be the right place. Two hours ago, as I drove past the sign that says ‘Welcome to the Culver Valley’, I imagined myself doing the journey with Joseph, his happy voice asking, ‘How much longer?’ from the back seat. He’ll be beside himself with excitement whenever we come here, desperate to get out of the city and back to his other house in the beautiful countryside outside Spilling.
Of course, I didn’t know for sure, on ...my way to Swallowfield, that I’d want to buy: this is what I tell myself and, although it doesn’t feel true, it must be. I hadn’t seen the estate yet, or any of the houses. I hadn’t been on Bethan’s sales tour. All I knew was that I felt drawn, as if by a magnet, and couldn’t resist. Didn’t want to resist.
As I drove along the approach road to Swallowfield, I imagined that it might have been rolled out, brand new and only seconds ago, for my sole use. There were no other cars on it going in either direction.MoreLess
