3. The Curtains Won't Block Me Out

Arriving at my house I told Maria to make me hot chocolate and rushed straight towards my room.

The Incident has been running in my mind ever since. But the saying that hit me the most was his words.. 

"You tried to touch her!? I'm gonna break you into half!" These words capture repeating themselves in my mind over and over again. 

Did he know me? Is he someone I have met before!? I'm actually good with faces. I couldn't see his face.... but still that voice doesn't ring a bell. 

I was deep in thought when my dad bursted inside my room. 

"Dad you know you gotta knock..." I said as he approached me.

"Why didn't you tell me you were attacked!?" 

Shit! I told Tylor to keep his mouth shut! I know that dad's men are more loyal to dad than me but still...

"Yeah... but I am fine now and you might as well think about giving Tylor more training, he couldn't even handle three men.." I said turning back towards the window. 

"Tylor was beaten up?" Dad asked. 

"What? Didn't he tell you that?" 

"Then did you beat them? Wow that was quite impressive." He said and I froze.

That was literally the first time he would have appreciated me...

I worked hard everyday to secure a perfect As in my academics and in everything I do, but he never praised me he said would your heart but now he is praising me just because he thinks I beat up three men? 

As much as I wanted to hear more anyone can't because I was not the one who beat them.

"Of course not that you know I am not trained enough yet. It was some other guy he popped up at the right place at the very right time and he helped me." 

"You mean a guy? He helped you? Do you know him?" He started throwing questions at me. 

"No dad I don't and right now I am very tired so can you please please leave my room?" I said he looked the bit taken aback. I have never talked to my dad like that before.. I used to think that if I work hard and live up to his expectations maybe he will start loving me more, just like my mum.

But I am not that stupid little girl anymore, I know he loves his job and his money more than he can ever love me.

So I quit now. Everyone who I loved has always deceived me and left me...

I still do crave love, but I'm gonna stop looking for it now. 

Dad left my room and just after a minute Maria came in with the hot chocolate. 

"He's just worried about you." She said. 

"He is just worried about his reputation." I said in a cold tone. 

Mariya looked at me with concern in her eyes but didn't say a word and left. 

I just completed my assignments and started for the rest of the day.

I don't really want to go out after what happened..

I changed into my night wear and Summit myself to my big and fluffy bed. 

I was just about to dive into my Dreamland when my phone's notification broke the spell. I read for my phone on the night stand and clicked on the new message. It said~ 

"The tank top and those shorts look so damn good on you. Oh the things I will do you, my baby girl." 

I sat upright in my bed after reading the message. It was the same number who messaged me in the morning during the class!! 

Wtf!? how does he know what I'm wearing!? Who the hell is he!? 

Can he see me!? 

I looked around the room and saw the curtains of my big windows were open.

I quickly rushed towards the window and Drew the curtains. I took a sigh of relief and returned to my bed. He can't see me now can he? Wait, is this Maria cracking a joke with me!? Only she knows what I wear at night... But when did she get a new number? 

Then suddenly another message arrived~ 

"The curtains won't block me out." It said and my eyes widened. 

It can't be! he can still see me!? 

I blocked the number, switched off my phone and turned off the lights. 

I tried to sleep but only kept tossing and turning around. Sleeper luxury I think I just lost...

You can't possibly sleep when you know someone is watching you but who is he? 

Is this even a guy or one of those girls from my college who had just played prank on me..

I was cursing myself for not saving anyone's number from my college.. 

I lay still in my bed thinking about these things and I didn't know when I sleep took over me and I slipped in a slumber... 

Next morning was not a very pleasant one. I had a severe headache and also bags under my eyes because I couldn't sleep well last night.. 

I stood up and did my morning routine. 

I had to put on some makeup today because the eye bags aren't looking good at all. 

After completing everything I went downstairs for breakfast. Setting on the dinner table is switched on my phone. 

To be honest it took so much guts for me to switch on my phone. 

I didn't really want to see any creepy messages.. and thankfully there weren't any.. 

But my mood was spoilt..

"Sabrina, for you." Maria came and placed the blue flowers on the table. 

My face immediately lit up.

These flowers were doing some kind of magic to me, and so does the note.. I pulled out the note and started reading it. 

"Before I met you I didn't know what it was like to look at someone and smile for no reason."  

The smile never left my lips all the while I read this 

I immediately took out the pen and paper and wrote.

"Before you came into my life I didn't know what it felt to be loved and wanted.."

"Maria do you know at what time these flowers arrive?" I asked here.

"At approx 7:00 a.m. I try to catch the person but no luck.." 

"It's alright No need to look for him anymore, just keep this outside the door before the flowers come." I said happily. 

This secret admirer of mine is so damn sweet he never fails to bring a smile on my face.

Wait! What if the person sending me these flowers and letters, is the same one who is messaging me?
