The Neighbor Who Mows at 3am
1
My neighbor mows his lawn at 3am. Last night I finally found out why.
2
It started in June. Every night, same time, the engine starts up.
3
Nobody complained, and that was the strange part. Not one neighbor said a word.
4
So I watched from my window. He wasn't cutting grass, he was mowing a shape.
5
In the morning, from the attic, I could see it clearly. A circle, with our house inside it.
6
Then he knocked on my door, smiling, and said, you're welcome. Part two tomorrow.
