Dirty Lingerie

May 20th 2010 08:52
Day 5- 20th May 2010

I came home early this morning, after a heavy night out. The car was there again. In my half inebriated state I stumbled past it, towards the house. In an army crawl, I waddled up the front lawn of the house and peered into the living area window.

The woman, dressed in skimpy lingerie, was being chased throughout the house. She was laughing. I was laughing. I could see the man playfully chasing her, but I struggled to make out his face. Eventually, I recognised him.

He was a father at the school. His daughter and her daughter were best friends. I guess that made it easier for them to continue to fly under the radar, using their children as a cover.

I’ve actually noticed them at the school a few times, how they act. They stick to polite nods and light passing conversation. They’ve got it all figured out.

The man and woman disappeared upstairs. I realised where I was and lifted myself off the dewy grass. On the way to my own house, I accidentally bumped into the man’s car, accidentally bending back his side mirror. I accidentally kept walking.

Accidentally…

The Bottles

Day 4- 17th May 2010

I spent the morning mowing the lawn.

She came outside; dressed in a one-piece tog-suit, a sarong wrapped tightly around her waste. She was saying something, but I couldn’t hear over the lawn mower. I switched it off.

She needed help putting her bins down. I obliged. They rattled and clunked loudly as I pulled them across her driveway. I asked what she had in there, but she ignored me.

When she turned away I lifted the lid. There were about ten empty bottles of vodka on top.

I closed the lid without her noticing. When she saw I was finished she gave me a smile.

A car drove passed. We both looked. It was the car with the number plates. The tinted windows obscured the figure in the driver’s seat. It slowed awkwardly, tempting the gutter. The woman looked just as awkward.

The car stopped. The woman didn’t move.

The car sped off.

In the pool

Day 3- 16th May 2010

They had a big fight last night, the husband and wife. I heard it from my bedroom. She was screaming, calling him a liar and a cheater—he just mumbled in return. She threw something out of their bedroom window and it landed in our swimming pool. I went outside and found it at the bottom of our pool. A mobile phone. I grabbed the pool scoop and clawed it out. I tried to turn it on but it wouldn’t spark. I thought for a while then threw it back over the fence, into their backyard.

I sat down next to the pool, listening guiltily. I heard her tell him to leave and a few moments later a car burnt off out of the street and into the distance. I stood to walk back in the house but was stopped.

From the bedroom window, she asked me what I was doing. She was wearing a silk nightie and I could make out the shape of her nipples in the mellow moonlight. She asked me if I’d heard anything. I said no. She asked me if anything landed in my back yard. I said no. She asked me if I wanted to go over for a drink.

I said no.

At work

Day 2- May 12th, 2010

I saw the woman at work today. She dresses professionally-- must have an office job, perhaps in the city. She passed by me with another smile. Does she know I live two houses down from her? Does she assume I know about the car with the number plate
