I knew it was not going to be easy.
The top floor, and a window of only fifteen minutes to get through the open window. Time to see if all my practice at the rock climbing wall bore any fruit.
Okay, slow and steady does it. I won’t look down and only focus on the goal – the window. That’s easier said than done. Here come the shivers. Ignore them, ignore them.
Right, made it to the window. It is open, as I was promised.
I hope she likes her valentine’s gift and can keep it away from her disapproving father…

Like the two uses of window in one sentence, clever. Sounds like climbing the wall, as compared to facing the father, is the lesser hurdle.

Perfect for Valentine’s Day. Romance story? Or perhaps a murder since the father’s reaction could be bad.
