It was their second month in their new house and they were excited to finally be together in it. They'd been waiting for this for so long that it was hard to believe it finally happened. It was already a very long week and Justin was so exhausted that all he wanted to do was get to bed early so that he could get a good night's rest before work the next morning. They were both equally exhausted and looking forward to a restful night. Sherry was happy that she'd decided to take the rest of the week off from work. He wished that he'd done the same and was regretting it now. Still, she reminded him that it was not like she wasn't going to be working tomorrow. She'd be just as hard at work at home emptying boxes and putting things in their place as he would be at work, if not even more!
Morning arrived too soon and before he even realize that he'd fallen asleep, it was time to get out of bed. In a short thirty minutes or so, he was ready for work and he stepped out after drinking only half of the cup of coffee that she made him while he was getting ready. He kissed her as he walk out the door.
After about an hour of opening boxes in the kitchen and putting the dishes in the dishwashers started it and went to take a shower. Walking down the hall to their bedroom, she passed one of the extra rooms and glanced out the window. She caught a glimpse of a man in the house next door. She stopped in her tracks and slowly peeked into the room across the way from behind the doorway. Through the window she got a fuller eyeful of him. He was well tanned, muscular and very good-looking. He looked like he could be a model for an ad for weight-loss pills or exercise equipment. He had nice biceps and shoulders and thick forearms. He was moving some boxes around and she realized she was looking at a new neighbor! What a lucky woman his wife must be, you think. He turns around to leave the room and she ducked behind the doorway to avoid being noticed staring at him, the window having nothing to block his view into the house.
