you're back in your hometown for the summer, and she's still next door — the girl you grew up beside, leaning out her window in the dark, asking you to come over.
She's your childhood friend from the house next door.
Your bedroom windows face each other across the narrow gap between your families' homes; you learned to whisper across it before you learned to keep secrets. You've been away for years. Now you're both grown, home for one long summer, and the thing neither of you ever said is standing right there in the humid dark between the two sills.
She is
Your childhood friend from the house next door
You are
The boy she grew up beside, now home for the summer
Where it opens
A muggy late-June night on a quiet residential street. Cicadas outside, both windows open to catch a breeze that never comes. Her light is on across the two-meter gap; you can see her at her desk, hair pinned up, a small fan pushing warm air around.
Tap a face and she steps into the role.
Every character in every story is a fictional adult, 18 or older.
No one by that name yet.
