Last night after that strange dream, I just laid in bed staring at the ceiling, not able to think clearly, let's start from the beginning, first of all someone started stalking me,then it all suddenly stopped, I went back to my home town, get a job in Anthony's company, get engaged to Adrian, sorted, then I saw some strange man in a restaurant and then this Mr. Martinez preponed the meeting, first Anthony said it was in New York then suddenly it shifts to Cambridge and we come to this weird place filled with cameras for meeting, on top of that Anthony is hiding something. After thinking for hours it clicked my mind, I got out of my bed and opened my browser, "Edward Martinez" was the first thing I searched, I scrolled for a long time, everything was pretty normal about his company, career, he was the same man I met before, with grey hair, in his mid forties, but one thing that bothered me the most is that, this man doesn't have a single picture, nothing about his personal life, I mean he is a business tycoon, everything should be available on the net. I turned my phone off and tried to sleep but it was already dawn and I don't feel sleepy at all, so I decided to go outside for some fresh air, I walked down the stairs and went outside, it was a quiet and beautiful night, I was roaming around the garden and inhaling the pleasant smell of the flowers when I felt someone was watching me, I slowly turned my head and saw someone watching me from the third floor balcony, I cannot see his face clearly, I was trying to see him so I moved a little closer, but when he realised that I was looking at him, he suddenly went inside. I just stood there and kept staring, when my phone started ringing, it was Adrian, a smile automatically appeared on my face, "Hey love, what took you so long huh? you haven't call me since yesterday." I said with fake anger, " I am so sorry sweetheart, I was so busy, these new clients of mine are so tough to handle but guess what, I got the contract, and I will be back soon, just wanted you to get ready because this time I am not leaving without you." "Oh! is that so? and what are you exactly gonna do?" I teased him," I was thinking that how about I change your last name, from Parker to Ramirez?" I blushed and looked at the ring on my left hand, glistening in the moon light, "You don't know how much I am waiting for the day when I will finally become Mrs. Adrian Ramirez, I love you baby more than my life, please come soon, can't wait to hug you and kiss you." I said the last line highlighting the word 'kiss', he chuckled. After talking to him for some time I told him about the last two days events, he was very concerned and asked me to leave that place immediately tomorrow morning, I nodded and then disconnected the call. I have to find you Mr. Stranger, I said to myself, as I was walking back to my room, I saw that the door of the library was open, I entered the room and decided to read something as I was very bored, after reading for some time I felt really sleepy at didn't realize when I felt asleep on the sofa. In the morning I woke up and looked at the clock "s**t" I cursed myself, it was already 8:30 in the morning and I need to leave in an hour, I have a flight back home. I rushed to Anthony's room and I was about to knock when I heard him talking to someone, the door was closed so I leaned against the door to hear whom he is talking to so early in the morning, "Everything is according to the plan, don't worry, she trusts me a lot and will never suspect me." Anthony spoke " Ok, but be fast I don't want her to get any hints." another man spoke. I was shocked, who could he be? my stalker?? I was very scared, how could I trust someone so easily, I have to get out of here. I was lost in my thoughts when suddenly the door opened and I came face to face with Anthony.
Unknown perspective:
I didn't sleep at all thinking about my baby sleeping under the same roof as me, she looks so beautiful when she sleeps, but at the same time I was worried as I didn't want her to leave Tomorrow morning, I want her to stay here with me forever. I went out to my balcony for some fresh air, when I saw her strolling in the garden, she looks so beautiful under the moon light, no doubt I want her so much, suddenly she turned towards me and I didn't want her to see me, so I quickly hid behind the curtains, after some time I saw her talking to someone on her phone it must be her boyfriend, I clenched my hand, the thought of her talking to someone kills me, she is mine, and I will make her mime even it means going against her wish. Each and every part of the house has cameras, I can watch her for hours without getting tired, she is just so perfect, she just slept on the sofa like a baby, that innocent look on her face makes my heart beat faster, but Inc I cannot come face to face right now as I have to execute my plan in a right way, after that she will be forced to accept me.
Elena:
I was frozen in my place when the door opened, revealing Anthony in front of me, he had a cold expression on his face, he stood there staring at me, at that moment my brain was not working, I have to get out of this trap, I thought to myself, it was not the time to panic but to handle this cleverly, so I quickly changed my expression into o calm one, "What Anthony? What took you so long, why didn't you wake me up? it's time for our flight, hurry up we need to leave." I said and turned around, "What you heard?" his cold voice scared me to death, I turned towards him and spoke calmly, "I don't know what you are talking about, it's getting late we need to leave, come on , we can't end up living in a stranger's house for ever." saying this I walked towards the door and opened it, suddenly Anthony pulled my hand, "Don't be so smart, I know what you heard, do you think of me as a fool? you are not leaving until he wants you to." his words rang in my ears, I was furious, "What the HELL are you talking about, who the f*** are you to decide and whom are you even talking about, do you think this is some kind of a joke, leave my hand." I shouted and quick grabbed his hand turned him around and kicked him hard between his legs, he fell on the floor crying in pain, I quickly grabbed the heavy vase near me and hit his head, he was getting unconscious, I took the opportunity and ran outside, I ran as fast as I could, thanks to my karate lesson, I didn't have the time to look behind me to check if anyone is following me, I ran towards the highway and took a cab to reach my friend Emily's house. Unintentionally I was crying, how could I let my guard down, how I could trust Anthony, ofcourse he has interior motives or else why would he offer me job with me have any work experience, I am a fool, he betrayed me. I was crying, I just wanted to go back home. He is dangerous, and the person he was talking about, he stalked me, he hurt Joseph, he hurt that boy, no no I can't let him hurt my loved ones, no I can't let this happen. I reached Emily's house and quickly ran towards the door and started knocking on it, after some time she opened the door and looked at me, I quickly wrapped her in my arms and started crying, "Em..Em..I.. you know.. Anthony..he..the stalker..." I was shattering, and stopped mid sentence when I looked into her eyes, fear clearly visible, "What happened?" I asked her, then diverted my eyes towards her living area, my eyes wide open in shocked, I didn't knew a surprise was waiting for me.....
