The Guy in the Window

The Guy in the Window

I was in the middle of my divorce when Adam messaged me. I believe his exact words were, â€œHi. I think youâ€™re my dadâ€™s brother. Would you like to get to know me?â€

My brother and I had never been close, so Iâ€™d only met his adopted son a few times when he was very young. Instinct told me to ignore the message, and I did. For a few days. It took an exhausting fight with my soon-to-be ex-wife and half a bottle of whiskey for me to change my mind.

Adam first became â€œsort of my nephew.â€ Next, he became the guy who helped me find an apartment in the building next to his. He was a sweet, cheerful young man doing his best to raise his four-year-old daughter, which led to him becoming the guy who wanted to help me patch up my relationship with my own daughter.

Then one night as I got ready for bed, I looked across the alleyway to the next building, where I saw him getting ready for bed too.

I couldnâ€™t look away to save my life.

It was the night he also became the guy in the window.
