Tick，tock，tick，tock. I’m sitting here，watching the movements of my existence pass slowly away. My house has been 1 for such a long time，and I’m lonely and forgotten. Sitting here, by myself, all that I can do is 2 and think about my past. I could tell you stories that only 3 would know. But walls can’t speak.

I came to this place many years ago，along with an old man…. 4 , he was with me for on1y three short years before he passed on….

For a time，I was left alone，while people came and 5 the house…. Then，one day a nice couple moved in with a young son. 6 , their son Danny liked to stay with me，and I was completely 7 with him. He always looked as if he loved the stories I told，most of which began with. ‘‘Back in my day…” and ‘‘When I was 8 .…” I sometimes had the kind of idea that he didn’t really understand what I was saying，but it felt good to be 9 ． When Danny went off to college, my heart broke. Soon afterward, 10 sold the house.…

New owners came and 11 . Then，One day it so happened that I was in when a new family was moving into the house. You can’t even imagine my 12 when，unexpectedly, Danny walked through the front door. He had a 13 and kids now. I was so overjoyed when I saw him that I put all my 14 into my daily activities. ... I spent the next twenty years watching his kids grow up, with a mixture of pride and 15 about what would happen next.

The kids finally became 16 and Danny sold the house. That was about five years ago…. Some of the local kids have started the rumor that the house is haunted (闹鬼的)--- and，in a way，it is. It is haunted by 17 of all the people who have lived in it. Every second has 18 me so much. I have been 19 them down and they are almost up for me.... I hope that someday somebody will 20 me, and drop in on me again. Maybe then I’ll get a new home and an opportunity for a whole new set of memories.

滴答...滴答......我坐在这里，看着自己的存在慢慢地逐渐消泯。我的房子已经空置了这么长的时间，我很孤独，且已被遗忘了。我独自坐在这里，可以做的只是追忆往事。我可以告诉你，只有墙壁才知道这些故事，但墙壁不会说话。

很多年前，我跟随一个老头来到这里....可悲的是，他与我作伴只有短短三年，然后他“走了”....

有好一段时间，我只是独处，间中会有人来看房子....然后，有一天，有一对和善的夫妇和他们的小儿子搬进来。从一开始，他们的儿子丹尼就很喜欢和我呆在一起，我完全有“被需要”的感觉。他看起来总是很喜欢听我的故事，其中大部分故事的开始总是 「在我以前的日子...... 」、「在我年轻的时候...... 」有时我想，他真的不明白我在说什么，但被人爱的感觉真棒。到了丹尼要上大学的时候，我的心都碎了。此后不久，他的父母也把房子卖掉了....

新业主来了又走了。然后，有一天，有一个新家庭搬来，我碰巧在屋里。你真的不能想象我的惊讶，出乎意料的是，是丹尼从前门走进来。他有了妻子和自己的孩子。我是如此喜出望外，当我看到他，我把所有的精力投入到日常活动之中......我花了接著的20年，看着他的子女长大了，怀著一份骄傲，也焦虑会发生些什么事。

孩子们终于长大成人，丹尼也把房子卖掉了，那是大约五年前的事......一些当地的孩子们开始在传房子闹鬼的谣言， 在某种程度上，也是。所有曾在这房子住过的人的记忆都成了困扰，每一分一秒钟都给我留下深刻的印象。我一直在倒数著时间，也几乎接近尾声....我希望有一天，有人会记得我，再来看看我。也许我会有一个新的家，且有机会了获得一段崭新的回忆。
