Boardinghouse Stories

When Thecla visits her cousin Samuel, who has been in a coma for eight years, she expects silence. Instead, she finds something impossible. Samuel hasn't aged. 11-year-old Samuel is still 11, not 19! Suddenly, a strange pendant and a blank diary pull her into visions of his past-inside a Nigerian boarding school where something went terribly wrong. Guided by Samuel's voice, Thecla watches the truth unfold piece by piece. But the deeper she goes, the clearer it becomes: Samuel's coma wasn't an accident. And if she doesn't stop what's coming, he may never wake up. Because some choices don't stay in the past. And some stories refuse to be changed.

Six strangers. One boarding house. A caretaker with rules he swears will keep them safe. They should have asked why the rules existed before they agreed to follow them. The house on the edge of the city is too large for what it costs and too quiet for what it contains. The caretaker delivers his rules at the door and disappears into the dark at the end of the hall, and by morning the rules are less comfort than they seemed, and the door at the end of the corridor is breathing, and the miniature sitting in the forbidden room has figures with faces pressed into their clay that no one should have been close enough to make. Cora has been drifting for long enough that she has stopped noticing the drift. She notices the house. She notices the bruise on her sternum that has pulsed since she crossed the threshold, shaped like a keyhole, warm in ways she cannot account for. She notices the miniature's tiny figure with her own face pressed into it with the intimacy of a mold made before she arrived. The house has forty seven names in its ledger. Eleven of them escaped. Inside these walls, nothing taken can be returned. Nothing placed inside a person comes out the way it went in. And the thing the house wants most is the one thing Cora does not yet know she has been carrying her entire life. This is not a story that flinches. It stays in the room. Count carefully. Do not open your eyes until you mean it. ©️ Relle H

Between goodbyes. Between who they were and who they're about to become. Each guest arrives carrying something heavy. Each one leaves a little lighter. Genevieve has one strange gift : she can see how long someone will stay. A soft glowing thread follows every guest, counting down to their departure. Everyone has a thread. Except for the quiet boy with ink-stained fingers who arrives one rainy evening.. and plans to stay "just for a while." His thread is missing. And no one has ever stayed past Thursday before. In a house that exist between moments, Genevieve is about to learn that some people aren't waiting for a place to go - they're waiting for the courage to move forward. © 2026 by Yvie.
