【2025原创】Today, when I walked down my street, I thought about each
neighbour. I’ve lived here for 40 years, but I know little about my neighbours.
We’re like in an egg crate—each in our own small space, separated. But recently
I started thinking about who they really are, and I realised they all have their
own lives and stories. These short stories might inspire you to reach out a little
more, get to know your neighbours, or maybe even become friends with them.

Rafael and Margot make our quiet street lively. Every Friday night, they put
wine, snacks and music in their camper and invite neighbours for a party. Kids
play;adults chat. Josh is a lawyer—I only see him rush to work and walk back
tired. His wife Sarah, a part-time librarian, is shy. Even after 40 years, her “hi”
sounds shy.
Vicky lives alone. She’s a nurse who likes gardening. She’s our block
leader—keeps a list of everyone (even pets!) and plans earthquake and safety
meetings. Michael is almost 95.Two years ago, he played tennis;last year, he used
a walker. Now, only his caretaker comes to his house.
