Love's Redemption (Chris and Maddie)

As Lisa and I were chatting happily, I heard the sound of a door opening and closing across the hall.

The landlady had mentioned the new tenant would be moving in today, so it seemed my new neighbor had arrived.

"Lisa, do you think I should go introduce myself to my new neighbor? In case something like last night happens again, it might be easier to ask for help," I said. "Your neighbor is a man. If you knock on his door just after he moves in, he might think you're either overly friendly or up to something," Lisa's words made me laugh. "Really?"

"Really."

Alright, I'd wait for a chance encounter instead.

Given that we lived across from each other, the chances of running into him were high.

But I was wrong. Over the next two days, I didn't see my new neighbor even once, and Brandon didn't come by either.

It turns out that the hero only cares to rescue the damsel once. Was he not worried that my date from that night might seek revenge and come to harm me again?

This realization dampened the good impression I had of Brandon.
