The Tenant, Part 3

The Tenant
The Tenant

On another occasion, Abby heard a sound coming from her neighbor's apartment. It sounded like furniture was being rearranged. She went to her neighbor's door and rang the doorbell for a second time. Again, there was no answer and Abby returned to her own home.

One night, after returning later in the evening after having been at a restaurant with newly made friends, Abby observed that her neighbor's door was ajar. Curious, she approached the door and pushed it open. She called out and identified herself, but no one answered.

Thinking that something might be wrong, Abby opened the door and stepped inside. She was shocked at what she saw, and her heart pounded. The house was empty, save for a folding chair sitting next to the wall that joined the two apartments. Upon inspection, it was observed that there was a peephole that looked directly into Abby's bedroom.
