Chapter 4

1259 Words
I stood there for a second and knelt down to pick the mobile. "I know you have noticed me watching you all the time" unknown number. 'Is some one playing prank or is it really someone stalking me.' I decided to know who the person was. So I planned a way to know who and why the person was stalking me. Worrying about it won't pay way, so I kept the mobile on the shelf and went back to bed all I need now is undisturbed rest. Later I will decide what to do with that person. I planned to take a complete rest, no work today and no other things. I woke up late, no plan of doing anything today. I laid back in bed after opening my window to let in fresh air. I took the phone and being the smart phone I planned to utilise it. Before killing my Co worker I made it clear I got all details to operate, making sure no trap is there. I started to Google some information from the phone, I want to buy a gun for my defence. Though my skill with a knife is good, that won't be handy all the time. Again a message "I know you aren't a mute". This words sent me a chill through my body. Now, I know clearly my stalker as kept eye on me from the day I murdered my Co worker. But, who could it be, and why me. If the person knows about me so much, also have known that I can't provide them with anything. Fine, this won't provide me any answer unless stalker themself relieve it. So, I ignored the message again and started to check for guns but I didn't find anything that could be worth, better I need to go to get it in person. Thinking, so I planned to search for some book store and library, so I can develop some skills. I can't depend on the super market jobs and restaurant jobs. When browsing I found a place where the library and book stall are in same place. Thank god, now I don't have to go from place to place in search of a*****e and library. I noted down all the required information and kept my phone in silent as I don't know any other people , this may create unnecessary issues. I planned to not work today, but still I can't be idle. I took a quick shower and got ready. I went out casually, as I know by the time I'm out the gang leader of this place will be out, so one dares to do anything. I went to a nearby bus stop and enquired about the route and how to reach there. People here are really kind while you ask for simple help. I waited for the bus to reach the library. I waited almost for 1 hour and I got on the bus. It wasn't crowded, yet there were less seats available. So, quickly I got a seat. But now, why is it again, the feel of being watched. I didn't have this feeling when I was waiting for the bus for almost an hour, why now? I kept myself quiet, searching for the stalker. My bag was vibrating and I know who it was and why. But I don't have plans to expose myself. The place I need to reach is far away, so I planned on taking a nap. I don't know how long I took the nap, but I felt someone standing near me, I got cautious and held the bag tightly, yet didn't open my eyes. Then within a second someone try to snatch my bag. I thought 'Bad move'. I kicked him hard on his thigh with my knee and used my bag to hit his face. I did it both simultaneously so that no one could see my knee move. And others on the bus started to hit him. I understand, he was a normal thief, so I just let the people in the bus handle him. And I stood up from the seat, so I could stretch. After 30 minutes, I got down at destination; from here it is just a walkable distance. Yes, all this time I had sensed the presence of the stalker. This won't be the right move, I need to hold on until I know who it is. When I was going I saw a girl who was giving flyers, her appearance made me calm. She was like an angel, who was sent to earth to calm anybody who saw her. Her eyes met mine, I just gave a smile. But she was stunned, and instantly changed her expression and gave a smile. My heart almost stopped, her smile forced me, it was so sweet no words to describe, they were so innocent that they did not belong to this world. (Don't mistake me, I'm completely straight, but I felt her smile don't belong here). I went into the library and kept my thoughts aside. This library is a huge one in the city I live in, it has nearly 18 floors with each department separated. In the underground they have a book store, though it is small compared with the entire building, yet you can buy any book you need. I went to the library keeper and enquired about membership details. Here, it goes again they need address proof and other identification details. But, if you can't borrow books you can sit and read in the library. That's fantastic, it works for me no issue of travelling here to read. As I'm a huge fan of reading. I went to each floor to explore first. Though I felt being watched I ignored it again and again, so I can concentrate on my work. While exploring I saw a book about networking. It caught my eyes, so planned to halt here and have a go through the book. Also I collected more books relating to it, I took my note book and started taking notes. I don't know how long I was reading then I heard that time up to close the library but the book store will be open for the next one hour. I took quick notes on required information and also noted some book names. I went down to the ground floor to get some books and I saw that the parking space is also available there. I bought books from an old book store where they sell used books. As here you can get both new and used books. With the saved money, I bought the books I needed. A few weeks went: All these days I on weekend morning I go to library for books. And have weekend night work. By now I started to avoid feeling of being watched, also started to ignore the messages. If the person needs they will come to me, if not no. Nothing much to think about. I planned to spend some time in terrace before I go back to my room. Just spending time with myself. Though it's middle of the night, I sat looking at sky enjoying the breeze. Suddenly I heard some foot steps running from a distance and the sound is towards the place I'm sitting. Too late to run down, so I hide myself. It was a blink, the foot runs in front of me, but got hit by my bag. -------------------- Thank you for reading. Please leave your comment.
