This is going to sound insane but bear with me.
This guy, not a close friend, just someone I knew semi-well gave me his house keys six days ago. Straight up handed them to me and said something like, “Everything you need is there.” I thought it was temporary, maybe he was leaving town or doing something dramatic.
But already it is has been 6 full days. No texts. No calls. No social media usage. Phone’s dead. Things were gone totally, and man was an insignificant figure, too. I chose to give in and take a look around it because, well, like an empty apartment or something? Nah. It is a finished home. Such as lived-in. Bed made. Pantry stocked. The items in the wardrobe. All right, normal… as usual… but the guy has just disappeared and the house is now mine(?) Then my questions are: When does it technically belong to me? What happens in the event that he ceases paying anything (utilities, mortgage, taxes)? Who will have to pay? I guess there is about a 90 percent chance the deed is under his name. So I guess I am now a squatter with a back story? And one person can just... give you his house like that? It gives me the sense of a bizarre indie thriller in which the twist is that someone has adopted me unknowingly. I do not know what I do here.
