That was some smooth creamy writing. I loved the voice of the narrator. This was a very moving and heartfelt story. Creeping about, and looking into his own backyard? And thinking about her? Waiting to see her, only to leave with a promise of coming back? Powerful. The gentle hints of a past relationship gone wrong, or so you hope. Because what if he's not? Love it!
I love how you make the past slip into the present. You make it feel easy when it's anything but. And most of the softly crumbling relationship is told in dialogue. You make me like these people and ache for them. Beautiful writing, Craig.

Hey Craig, was just cruising the Substack. I liked this story a lot.
I did!
Don't make me choose between your written words and your smooth reading of your story. 🙂
