[short] Siren
1. Seduction
She stood at her window, just across the alley. I’d been noticing her for months coming and going, doing this or that. I mean, a pretty woman lived next door-I’m bound to notice even if she closes her shades. My neighbor didn’t, at least not in the living room.
Not that there was much to look at usually. I mean, I’d seen her on the street for at least a year. She seemed nice enough, and she was quite easy on the eyes, but I shut my shade every day when I got home. I like to give her the privacy she wasn’t giving herself.
