The day begins like a slow seduction.
Morning light drips across the wood panelling.
Golden. Warm.
Coffee and vinyl in the air.
Fleetwood Mac spins.
Breakfast tastes feels like foreplay.
In the bedroom, wardrobes line the wall.
Doors slide back with a hush.
Clothes spill.
You dress slow.
Eyes linger in the mirror's glow.
The second bedroom waits.
Arched vanity.
Lipstick on glass. Perfume hanging.
Beyond the windows, gardens stretch green and manicured.
Quiet, immaculate, almost secret.
The apartment rests at the very rear, secluded.
Outside, the city is close.
7 minutes to Small Caps for your flat white.
5 to Fairview Park and the Yarra.
2 to the tram down Swan Street.
If you go.
Because leaving feels wrong.
Car slides into the carport off Lisson Grove.
The evening opens.
The sunlight fades, skimming warmth across the timber.
The room turns amber, unhurried.
From the oven, garlic and rosemary drift - rich, sweet.
The air thick with heat and promise.
Two Negronis glisten, ruby and sweating.
The record hisses, slow jazz curling like smoke.
Hands meet.
They sway in the fading light.
Shadows move soft across the walls.
Night settles like velvet.
The apartment hums with music and desire.
This is more than a home.
It's a love affair in 90sqm.
Two real bedrooms.
Separate living + dining built for candlelight.
A lounge that glows like honey on skin.
A beautifully kept 1960s time capsule.
Dressed in romance.
Waiting for someone who knows how to feel.
