The Man Behind the Mask
I couldn’t stop wondering who he was, and this curiosity drove me to plan a way to draw him out.
That evening, I decided to open my curtains again. The large bay window in my bedroom was usually covered when I was home alone, but this time, I left the curtains open to attract him.
I deliberately wore the skimpiest outfit I owned and prepared myself, though my mind wasn’t really focused on what I was doing. I kept glancing outside, hoping to catch a glimpse of the masked man, wondering where he was watching from.
For half an hour, nothing happened; he was just too good at it. Just when I figured my plan had failed, I heard the familiar sound of a whistle.
