John thinks sometimes of how much of his life he lived without a home. He never felt truly at home at his parents’ house. His uni days were a blur of hopping from flat to flat. His military days were worse, flitting between emergencies. Sometimes John thought home was a helicopter, or just the duffel bag of belongings he dragged around with him.
Now John has a flat with a man who plays violin at all hours when he isn’t attracting the criminal element to join him for tea. It’s now how he imagined home would be, but it’s perfect.
