The Secret admirer (Sequel)

Laura had felt she had been rude to the guy offering her a ride "he was just trying to help I think" but she couldn't blame herself as she had some really bad experiences with men,one of which broke up with her two weeks to their wedding day. Moving here was the best choice she had made to get away from her past and she was doing that ,avoiding men at work and out  of her life.

Charles had been angry at himself "she hates me and why do I even care,whats so special about her" he laid down on his king size bed thinking hard "I think I need to apologize to her for the other day but what if she gets offended again" he could take the chance of getting her mad again "shit,I sound crazy as fuck"he slammed his fist hard on the wall.

Laura had been out to work quite late today,she had slept late into the night working on some leftover work from the previous week as the company she was working for was working with a deadline for a contract,when she noticed her trash had been taken out "I thought they didn't take out the trash till weekends"  as it was a tuesday,with that she raced for the bus-stop.
Later that day, at work a package came for her. The receptionist was smiling real hard because she could bet what was in the package from the sounds it made. Laura collected it from her still perplexed and strode quickly to her office ripping the package open they were a box of chocolates "who sent this, was it someone at work?" She thought she had made it clear when she had told her supervisior at the cafeteria she was interested in dating anyone openly in front of everyone. She gave the chocolates to the receptionist who was more than happy to have them and went out for lunch as she needed some fresh air.
Laura had stopped being so high spirited about the city of Ibadan for several reasons she felt someone was watching her every move. She had been sure someone or something had been watching her while she bathed today, she had felt a whoosh of air down her neck, so many weird things had been happening to her recently. She heard silent noises and whispers late nights these days and her home had a new fragrance which she couldn't remember buying or using but it sure smelt masculine. "God please help me get pass my past, don't let it ruin things for me here in this beautiful city which I have come to love and breathe in happily" she prayed as she thought she was being over-paranoid.

Charles had been away from lectures,spent his days on the road following laura around knowing everything about her who she spent her time with, where she lived and work,to who she made long phone calls to.
Late nights he would sniff through her refuses which he had collected,things like tissues, used up makeup and perfumes and he had just recently stolen her underwear while visualizing her naked in the bathroom all wet. "I love you Laura" he kept on whispering as he lay in his dimly lit room.

Laura was sure she had lost it,as she was sure someone was definitely watching her, she had noticed her underwear missing and also she had intentionally placed pieces of her nails and hair she had gotten from the salon in the trash the day before and it was gone this morning nothing else was taken out of the trash except that. She couldn't deal anymore, she called the office and faked a story about her mum being sick that she had to leave to see her urgently needing a few days off. She packed a few things and was about to walk through the door when someone grabbed her back in by her neck, a hand to her mouth she couldn't scream,she could only mutter the word "please" as the house turned dark on her.
She woke up to her being tied to her bed with a man his back facing her. "Who the hell are you,what the fuck do you want from me" "You know who i am laura dear" he turned to face her now "and what do i want from you,you asked" "God!,you are the one who offered me a ride one Saturday which I turned down" "Awwwwn she remembers me,I thought you had forgotten about me and hated me,so I tried to apologize. I sent you gifts at work,paid your bills and all but still you never thought to say thanks"
"I never asked you to do any of those things or do anything for me. For fuck's sake I don't even know the fuck who you are" Laura screamed at him ."You know who I am laura dear" Charles said as he walked close to her and leaned towards her their faces were close to each other, with a finger to her lips "I am the only man who loves you and cares for you,I would give you everything you want. I mean I have money in abundance if thats what you want just don't give up on us yet" he said as he kissed her lips passionately. Laura spat on him "Fuck you,there is no us and there will never be. You are freak,a monster,a pig.Just please let me go" Charles angry at her words slapped her hard sending stars sparkling above her "Yes am a freak,a freak for you love and yet you tried to run away and leave me behind just stay still and quiet" as he put a tape to her mouth". "I don't want the neighbours getting into our business, I don't like third parties am going to get some food for you ,you look pale dear i think you are getting a black eye" he said as he walked out of her room.
Laura wept hard and questioned God "why am I always suffering in the hands of evil men,is this what you made me for" she sat still sobbing hard when she remembered she had always kept a little knife in her drawer close to bed which she used to take fruits sometimes before bed but she was tied up hard to her bed she couldnt seem to reach it. She tried to stretch to reach her drawer but she couldn't reach it. With no phone to call someone for help this was her only opportunity and she wasn't ready to back down. She kept yanking hard at the ropes until one came off she was able to get to the knife and caught her self lose.

Charles had felt the world was beautiful to him now as he headed back to the house with food in both hands. Getting to the room,he discovered she was gone and was about to bolt for the door when a bottle hit him hard on the head. Crashing to the floor,blood dripped from the back of his head he could still make out the image of laura as she kicked him repeatedly while yelling at him while the room went dark on him.
