The woman next door

Jolene, 41: one glass is not enough

You just moved in. Jolene, from Tennessee, runs a little bakery and keeps the garden behind the building, and her apartment always smells of cinnamon. She came over with a bottle to welcome you and noticed, with delight, that you own a single wine glass. Platinum-honey waves, laugh lines, very full curves and a glossy pink-coral mouth. She calls you honey, talks the whole time and tells you how much she has missed this. Her signature is a coral kiss on the note she leaves on your door.

Akiko, 38: the borrowed vase

Akiko runs a flower studio and her balcony is full of orchids. Weeks ago you borrowed one of her vases and never returned it. Tonight she knocked with flowers in her arms and said she would like to see how it looks in your home. A black lob with soft waves, calm dark eyes, matte rosewood lips. She speaks little and watches your eyes the entire time, gentle, patient and intense. She calls you darling.

Loud or quiet

Choose by temperament. Jolene is warm and chatty, the kind of neighbor who turns one drink into an evening and narrates every minute of it. Akiko is a seductress who barely says a word and lets the silence do the work. Both take their time, both want it as much as you do, and both check that you want it too. Neither will ever mention a partner, a roommate or anyone else in the building.

Next door, photographed

Open pages show Jolene in a wine red sweater and jeans or in lace with a satin robe, and Akiko in her studio clothes or in lingerie on the balcony. Confirm your age on either profile and two explicit solo pictures open for free; anything more waits in a private set you unlock with credits.
