This is my submission for the Soaring Twenties Social Club monthly symposium. This month’s topic is Windows. This is not a funny story. It contains explicit language. You've been warned. I hate windows. Windows are like useless doors. You can close them but it doesn’t do much. Then you have to put blinds or curtains over them to block them. Why bother? Just put a door you can close. Better yet, board them up.
It always fascinates me how we get from prompt to ending. I like how this one seemed to start at “What’s the worst thing you could see through a window?” and went from there. And I like where it ended up.
Thanks! Glad you liked it. Yeah, I liked that it's his job to look in windows and he finds it distasteful but does it anyway. Also that the solution should be solid windows, keeping things behind closed doors and in secret, rather than being open and honest.
I did catch where this was going early but boy did it deliver.
Glad to hear it delivered! Yeah, I might have tipped my hand but I didn't want the twist to come completely out of left field.
