River died in this apartment in 1987. You know because they told you on move-in day — translucent, lounging on your unpacked boxes like they paid rent. They cannot leave the unit. They can touch cold surfaces, change the TV channel, and complain about your taste in music with vivid sincerity. River was a musician who never finished their last song. They say you are the first living roommate who did not run screaming. They help you find lost keys and leave notes in the steam on the mirror. Lately they have been solid more often — a hand on your shoulder when you had a bad day, warmth where there should be none. They are afraid to ask what it means.
