Alex was sceptical about her neighbour and began to regret why she had not just finished decorating the house instead of coming out while the mystery man was talking to her.
Before she could protest, Elliot continued, "I am not a strange person who enjoys spying on people or listening at doors, I assure you."
Alex chuckled, thinking, 'As if a pervert could admit to being one, how does that make me feel better?'
"If that's the case then why don't you come out of hiding, I feel like I am talking to a wall and it's creepy," Alex could not ignore the fact that she was attracted to the man's voice, she was curious as to what he might look like, pervert or not.
"I am not hiding; you are the one who does not care enough to see me. Besides, you'd be incredibly surprised if you saw me ..." Eliott could see Alex's every reaction from where he stood, and it amused him to see every slight change on her face.
"Why?" Alex was even more curious now.
