Every day I climb three flights of stairs to reach my apartment, aging wooden stairs with decades-old cracks. Each time this hundred year-old building laughs at my impatience. I sure do miss the one-story architecture of my last home. From my living room I can see the street that, after that laborious ascent, seems impossibly close. Yet, here I am on the third floor telling myself, "You really should move to the fourth." My building doesn't have a fourth. | ||

The air hovering above reeks of anticipation for his first move.
