Next morning , i woke up and got ready . i was combing my hair when i saw a shadow behind the curtains of the mansion in my mirror. I turned back and went to my window only to fin no one there.

Strange. yesterday i also felt that someone was there and today also. I think the house has become more creepy now.

I went downstairs and had the breakfast. my brother said goodbye and went to college and my father also left for office.

"MAA, I HAVE TO BUY A NEW BAG.AND NEW WATER BOTTLE. AND A NEW.."

"I KNOW ,I KNOW YOU HAVE TO BUY EVERYTHING NEW. AND SURE WILL BE ." She said with a smile.

"WHEN ARE WE GOING FOR THE SHOPPING?"

" IN THE EVENING."

" NO. MAA, PLEASE . WHY DON'T WE GO RIGHT NOW. I AM READY AND YOU ARE ALSO LOOKING GOOD ."

"I HAVE TO CLEAN THE DISHES AND ALSO HAVE TO TAKE YOUR PET FOR A WALK."

" OK . YOU JUST CLEAN THE DISHES AND I WILL TAKE BRUNO FOR A WALK. PLEASE . DON'T SAY NO ."

"OK , THEN GO . BUT BE CAREFUL"

I took bruno out and closed the door. He is a nice pet and i love him but sometimes he just lose his morals if saw any cat around and i have to call mom to control him. we started our walk. The weather was nice . But i felt someone was following me. Then bruno started barking and behaving strangely.

oh no! a cat. come on bruno. mom is not here. how will i control you?

My grip over his leash got weaker and he pushed me in his direction. i was going to fall but someone grabbed me . i look at the person. He was a boy in his early 20's , with dark black eyes and thick black hair. He was a handsome guy . He was looking into my hazel eyes with his eyes wide open. I tried to be out of his grip but he stood still.

"EXCUSE ME, " I said

He then left my arms and looked at me with weird looks as if he was searching me for a long time. He was looking at me from top to bottom. I Looked at bruno . He was still chasing the cat hiding under a bench. i went to take tiger but he was busy in barking at the poor cat. Then the boy came and he took bruno's chain in his hands and took him forcibly from there.

" THANK U." I said.

He kept staring at me. and then said"WELCOME." He gave me bruno's leash and his hand touched mine to this a strange smile spread on his face . i went on my way but i could feel him staring at me. he then started following me.i sped up myself and opened the door of my house and went inside. From the keyhole, i saw the man was standing in front of my home and was staring at the window of my room . He then kissed the hand which touched my mine. His smile was weird .

But the thing that shocked me the most was he unlocked the mansion and went inside.

IT MEANS HE IS OUR NEW NEIGHBOR...

"So You are back . let's go i am all ready" Mom said as i nervously walked towards her.

"Yes. Give me 5 minutes" I Said and went to my room.

The man was strange! forget him . he is not so important. There are so many creeps in this world but they are a waste of space.

I fixed my hair and we went out . Mom was waiting for me at the door. We drove the car and parked it in the parking lot.

" OH NO! SORRY, SHREYA . I FORGOT MY PURSE IN THE CAR. WAIT FOR ME HERE I. WILL COME IN 5 MINUTES." Mom said and ran to the parking area.

I was standing at the door with hands crossed over my waist. But i felt someone staring me . I Looked around but again no one was there .I was feeling so uncomfortable there. then mom came and we went in the mall.

I was choosing bottle for me then i saw there him standing and watching me.

He is so weird.. The neighbor..

Then again he was at every place where we went. Finally we came home . I Could saw him following us by his car.

This will be alright when my schools will be opened. I smiled thinking about the new session.

But little does i know that things were going to be worst in the school.

This was not even the starting...
