The protagonist of Girl in the Window sits at home. He stares outside and is tired of being alone at home again. He takes a walk into the city from Gramercy to the East Village, finishes a drink and walks back home around midnight. He enters a massage parlor, leaves, and returns home. He stares at the windows across, and observes a single lighted room.

Girl in the Window is a short story that takes place in New York. In one sleepless night, it describes an evening in the life of one man.

The buzzing activity of hipster boys and attractive girls on the street is contagious. I feel the rush of adrenaline, dopamine and oxytocin, being amongst people again. The brush of physical contact awakens an uncanny desire. I pass the tinted windows of an Irish pub, the transparent window of an Asian fusion restaurant, the spotless glass facade of a Korean beauty parlor, the mirror window of a barber shop with its vintage interior, and the colored displays of a corner store with advertisements pasted across the window. All invite a myriad of gazes into their projected worlds."
