"I took my coffee with me to the landing and then peered down at the entrance to the building. Insects. That's what they reminded me of, all those uniformed people. I could see about six of them standing around a lump on the floor which was covered by a green sheet. I guessed it was a body, a person I supposed. Police don't come and check out a dead dog, so it must be a person under the green thing.
"Murder" I turned and saw my neighbour, Carlos, standing at the top of the stairs.
"Murder? I don't know. A dead person, for sure." I said.
Carlos walked towards me. Strange how he never made any noise when he moved. Probably why it had taken two years of living in this place before I knew he existed. Even now, I'm not sure which apartment he lives in. It might be number 4b or 6a. I don't know why I think that, just a feeling about him. He looks like a 6a man to me. 6a was empty for a long time. Not a peek from the place. Somebody moved in though, there's a new doormat with a "Welcome" sign on it."
A story of Mystery and Suspense to delight you that will leave you thinking about your own next door neighbour.
