Feeling now? Convinced that something is going on outside the house--a police search, and the man did tell her before that he lived just behind her. If that was true, it seems likely that the police are searching for him as at least someone under suspicion. But then he was "gone." So is he hiding, or did he leave the house? More suspense.
Wondering: Still finding this woman unlikely to have asked a stranger to help her unpack every single box in the house? Who would do that?
Why did he react in that phobic/physical way when she tried to playfully punch him, which also seems unlikely? Are they both playing some kind of role? Or only one of them?
He says she's "looking for trouble," which sounds menacing, but then smiles, and from her behavior she doesn't feel threatened by him.
Why did he lie about where he lived? Did he pat his pockets like someone checking they brought their keys with them? So, i haven't committed to any theory and can't predict what will happen!
