Cruel Display

Night finally came and I still couldn’t sleep. I was restless as hell, skin too hot, thighs sticky. I ended up at my window again, arms wrapped around myself, staring out into the dark backyard trying to breathe normal. Cool night air on my face. Just calm down, Aria. You’re fine. He’s just some asshole neighbor.

Then the lights flicked on next door. Upstairs room. Curtains not fully closed.
