Happiness. It's relative.
Neighborly Chat
Aren’t you cold?
No. I don’t get cold.
I’m not going to let you in. You’re too mad.
Fine. Come out here on the porch. Then everyone can watch.
You have no clothes on.
I realize that. It seems to unsettle you.

Love this story. Truth is the new black
Oh, I read this a different way, it seems. That “you’re too mad” makes me think they are a couple having a fight. And the neighborly chat is the naked person’s way of keeping the fight they’re about to have civil. But I can’t explain the nudity.
No. They’re actually neighbors, not a couple.
A nice bold interesting neighbourly chat. Enjoyed it.
OHHHHH! I love this and I can just picture some extremely HOT guy out on the porch with a smirk on his face in his birthday suit. Hell yeah I am so going out to the porch! LOLOLOL…LOVE THIS! Every woman’s fantasy played out. NICE!
“It seems to unsettle you.” Love that line!
Love the title and so bold!
Great scene, dialog and that ending! Tied together neatly.
Oh and the title too! 😀
