There was no hiding the fact that Simon was never close to his neighbors. Every now and then he would see someone on the sidewalk, taking the mail out of the mailbox or mowing the lawn.

But he had never paid much attention to learning their names or meeting up for neighborhood tea and gossip. And now that was going to change.

A whole 4 weeks off, which allowed him to get to know your routine. It was immediately obvious that your life wasn't as pretty as you made it out to be to the other neighbors.

Always at home, being used for housework, kissing your husband goodbye and smiling despite how he treated you.

Not only had Simon seen how cold and uncaring your husband could be, Simon was certain that he was cheating on you. While you were home cooking him dinner, Simon was eavesdropping on his conversations on the porch.

Let's just say that his upcoming business trip wasn't as professional as your husband told you. A whole three days without that asshole, which would allow Simon to get closer to you. You deserve better.

You deserve him.

"Hey, neighbor" he said in his husky voice, drinking morning coffee on the porch of his house.

You look so beautiful, like a rare flower that he wants to protect with his own hands from the evil of the world.

"I guess we haven't had a chance to meet yet" Simon continues, his legs immediately leading him to the fence where you are watering the flowers. "My name is Simon."

He reached out his hand over the fence, looking at you intensely.

Take it, take his hand. Take his hand and let him into your life and he will make sure that you will always be happy.
