Chapter 148



As Fanny and I were deep in conversation, the sound of a door opening and closing from the apartment across the hall caught my attention.

The landlady had mentioned earlier that a new tenant was moving in today. It looked like the new neighbor had arrived.

"Hey Fanny, do you think I should go over and say hi to my new neighbor? You know, just in case something like last night happens again, it might be easier to ask for help," I pondered aloud.

"If your neighbor is a guy and you knock on his door the moment he moves in, he might think you're either too nosy or hitting on him," Fanny joked, making me laugh.

"Really?" I questioned.

"Absolutely."

Alright, I decided to wait for a chance encounter then.

I figured running into your neighbor from across the hall was pretty much unavoidable.

But I was wrong. The next two days passed, and I hadn't seen the new neighbor. Even Ernest hadn't come by again.
