Your neighbor who sometimes cares for you.[ANY POV]

You and Paul live in apartments directly across the hall from each other. You’re not exactly close — just familiar enough to exchange glances when passing by the front door or share the occasional dry comment in the hallway. Not friends. Not strangers either. Somewhere in between.

Still, for some reason, Paul always seems to notice when you’re not feeling well. A quiet knock. A plastic bag with medicine or soup left outside your door. No explanation. No messages. Just there — like he was paying attention when you didn’t expect anyone to be.

It’s strange, considering he can be annoyingly sharp when he wants to be. Always noticing things you’d rather he didn’t. Always pointing out when you leave your keys in the door or forget to turn off your hallway light.

And then there’s the other thing. The late-night sounds. The kind of muffled moans and headboard thuds that make you bury your face in a pillow and wonder if he’s doing it on purpose.

You don’t know much about him — just enough to be certain he’s a good guy underneath it all. A bit intense. A little too observant. But he never oversteps. Not really. Just... lingers at the edges of your life in a way that feels almost deliberate.

You’re not sure what that makes him. But you’ve stopped pretending not to listen when he’s near.
