Chapter 4 - Four : Someone's Watching

It took them four hours to tidy the entire house and move their properties, they apparently cleaned till evening. Even though every one was stressed out but the end result was quite satisfying.

The bungalow had five bedrooms, a living room, a basement and a kitchen. It was obvious the house was built before her dad married her mom or atlest her dad had plans of increasing the family had he not died.

Five bedrooms?

Lia choose to believe he intended increasing the family atlest that's what he does best, plant a seed and then vanish.

But the lack of family pictures downstairs proved the fact he built this house before he started a family or maybe he's that ashamed of his family he never bothered putting up their pictures on the wall.

Exhausted,Lia climbed up the stairs sluggishly. She choose the room upstairs cause it had the best view of outside moreover there was a large tree outside which thankfully was close enough to grab from her verandah. That would definitely come in handy whenever her mom grounds her.

Her room painted a pale green was already coming off, she would need to redo the painting but everything else was OK. Atlest her dad had the sense to furnish the house.

The only thing She loved about this new home was the fact that everyone had their bathrooms and toilets unlike their old home where they had to share one and Rex had a weird fetish of playing games whenever he's in the toilet and could be stucked there for about an hour.

So much misery.

walking into her balcony, she inhaled the sweet smell of nature. Thankfully the house nearby was a duplex so she didn't have to worry about a peeping Tom while undressing.

But it was quite strange that no one had come in nor move out of the house since they packed in. Was the owner absent? It would be nice to have a neighbor, a nice goodlooking neighbor.

Suddenly Lia felt the hairs on her arm stand on edge, she frowned. She knew this feeling a lot, Someone was watching her. She searched around but couldn't replace anyone but she couldn't just ignore the feeling of being watched.

It wasn't a day yet but she had a stalker already on her tail. Great!

Heart pounding, She cautiously returned to her room closing the French doors to the balcony.Her stalker was still out there, she could feel it

"Lia" Her mom's voice rang from downstairs startling her .

"Yes, mom "

"Go take out the waste, it's an eyesore "

"Alright " She answered with her heart pounding furiously. Outside? Maybe this wasn't a bad idea, she could try replaceing out who was stalking her outside.

Nervously, she rushed downstairs and grabbed the waste bag, leaving before her mom could suspect a thing.

Thankfully the Recycle bin was just a few meters away from the house moreover she had a 110ml pepper spray in the pocket of her jacket and a taser for additional protection incase the first option fails.

Sensing her stalker nearby, she clutched her pepper spray canister tightly. Perhaps because she was hyper-vigilant , she had a heightened awareness of her surroundings.

Feigning ignorance of his presence, she approached the Recycling bin and started sorting through her waste. She just needed the stalker to come closer, clos..er, close... er and.... now.

With a quick turn, she sprayed directly into the assailant's face as he .. no scratch that... she screamed falling immediately to her knees rubbing her eyes.

"I might not know Karate nor Taekwondo but I have a pepper spray and a taser and I'm not afraid to use it, So back off! " Lia warned with a feral growl positioning her body in an attacking stance.

"What the f*ck was that for? " Her stalker cursed furiously rubbing her eyes.

"Because you were obviously stalking me and I had to protect myself " She defended scrupulously.

"I wasn't stalking you, I was following you because I wanted to be friends with you " The stalker spat leaving Lia dumbfounded.

Lia blinked dazzled, did she just jump to conclusion without being certain of the whole thing.

"Why would you want to be friends with me?" She asked cautiously. "You don't even know me"

Lia refused to believe she was wrong. she's certain that someone definitely was watching her in hiding but now...

"You moron, this is little Town. In little Town everyone knows one other so it's a custom to welcome a newcomer and I'm the one sent to do that " She explained staggering to her feet it was obvious she was having a hard time with her sight.

Lia heaved feeling guilty already, no wonder they haven't seen anyone since arriving their house. Everyone was in some sort of secret meeting preparing to welcome them. This was definitely a strange town, she wondered if her mom knows about this .

"I'm sorry for spraying you "Lia apologized at last

"Apology accepted " She replied flashing a toothy grin even though her appearance was scary. She was kinda sporting a snotty nose, reddish and swollen eyes with partially dishevelled hair.

"I'm Lia "

"Cassie "

" Come-on, let me help you to my place, my mom should have something to relieve that"

Lia told her, taking Cassie by the hand and bringing her to her place unknown of the curious eyes still staring at her from the shadow.
