I’ve been living in the this apartment in Tokyo for thirty-five years.
\nHowever, this morning at day-break.I witnessed something that I’d never
\nseen before.I got up a littre after four in the morning.I’d prepared two columun in my notebook : \u201cThings I want to do\u201dand \u201cThings I should do,\u201dand I
\nwas getting ready to write in them. The first thing that I wanted to do was to
\nopen the glass door and let the wind in.Outside it was still a bit dark.
\nI was looking absentry at the white building opposide. and suddenly I realized
\nthat a man was noiselessly scaling the guardrail of the fire escape outside
\nthe fifth floor. I saw him hang from the roof awning of the fifth floor, lift one
\nleg high, and presto, he hoiseted himself onto the roof.
\nIt seemed as if I could hear him gasp for breath. He was wearing a kind of undershirt and had leather fingerless gloves. You would have said he was one
\nof thse gladitors that you see in the movies, or should I say Spyderman.
\nI kept watching him, full of curiossity, wondering what he was going to do
\nnext when I noticed that he, as well, was staring at me , I start,as if I had been surprised in the act of looking at something that I was’t suppesed to see, and, closing the glass door halfway, I went to the other room. There I
\ncontinnued my spying behind a bamboo shade and saw him move from the
\nthe roof of the white building to the one next to it, a slighter taller beige
\nbuilding. He nimbly climbed over a metal reailing, then another to get the
\nroof of the seventh floor without using the fire escape.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
