Summer is approaching quickly and the days are getting hotter. Clothes are getting lighter and frustrations are growing stronger.
I had seen you a few times before in my building. Heading out for a walk, getting the mail, meeting friends in the lobby. I'd always thought you had a cute face but hadn't seen much more of you since you were always wearing layers of clothes. I think I saw you leaving one day in a pair of yoga pants but I wasn't sure as I just caught a glimpse of your ass as you went out onto the street.
Today as I was coming out of the parking garage, carrying a bag of groceries, I saw you enter the lobby from outside. The sun was streaming in and it illuminated the light white dress that you were wearing. I pushed the elevator call button and tried not to stare at the silhouette of your body approaching. You were walking quickly and I could tell that you were warm from being outside. Your cheeks were flush and I thought I saw a slight glistening on your forehead.
"Hello" I said. "Elevator or stairs?" I asked as the door opened.
