He sat peering out of his seventeenth-floor window.
It was a place of inspiration for him. From his twenty-story block he had a clear view of the matching tower opposite. With his favourite, comfy chair drawn up close to the glass he would miss nothing. Daytime viewing could be interesting, but it was now, when all was dark, save for the illuminated windows, that the view provided the best results. With his own room in darkness, visibility was perfect and gave the added advantage of allowing him to watch unseen. Those that dwelled behind their own windows; windows without blinds or curtains, were on parade. They went about their activities oblivious to the writer’s keen scrutiny. Naturally, for the most part their mundane comings and goings were not ideal fodder for a fiction writer. For him, it was only the occasional glimpse of something of note that could be expanded into some new, gripping narrative.
Of course, there was the entertainment aspect of what he did, he couldn’t deny that. After all, he did use the binoculars that sat on a low table beside him. He had wondered, on occasion, whether his nocturnal activity came anywhere close to voyeurism. Since he was the only person who knew about his nightly hobby, other viewpoints simply weren’t available. Regardless of this, any festering concerns he may have had on the subject were abruptly swept away the night his pastime ended. It ended, never again to be a part of his evening viewing… not ever again!
He had been sweeping the building with his powerful binoculars, moving from window to window, when a tall figure walked into one of the rooms. It was only one floor higher than his own, giving him maximum clarity. He dialled to a higher magnification setting. It was not only the height of the man that caught his attention, but the very distinctive clothes he was wearing. He couldn’t believe what he was seeing. He adjusted the instrument to the highest setting and focussed on the man’s face. It wasn’t possible, was it? His entire body was trembling.
Quickly releasing the cord, the blind came down with a thud.
