Da Tian Ting carried a box of her belongings and a heavy heart outside her former work building. What did she achieve in the last ten years? A relationship based on lies, and an unfair dismissal by a company where loyalty meant nothing.
Da Tian Ting looked back at her former work building one last time. She wiped her tears, and chanted to herself to stay strong. Then she turned around, and saw her stalker.
‘What are you doing here?’ Da Tian Ting asked.
Feng Kai Ze’s black shades hid his eyes. He stood crossing his arms, and smiling at Da Tian Ting.
‘Even if you move overseas, it’s not hard for me to find you,’ Feng Kai Ze said.
‘Don’t you have another hobby besides stalking me?’ Da Tian Ting asked.
‘You can say whatever you want,’ Feng Kai Ze said. ‘But there’s nowhere for you to hide. Did you think you can escape me if you move outside the CBD?’
‘How do you know where I moved to?’ Da Tian Ting asked.
Da Tian Ting couldn’t believe in less than a day, Feng Kai Ze found the address of her new apartment.
‘Because we’re neighbors,’ Feng Kai Ze said. ‘I’ll take you home. You don’t need to take the bus.’
‘I rather stand on a cramped bus than sit in your friend’s car,’ Da Tian Ting said.
Da Tian Ting walked to the bus bay. If she couldn’t escape Feng Kai Ze then she could ignore him. He’d lose interest, and leave her alone.
Da Tian Ting lined up at her bus stop. Feng Kai Ze didn’t stop her, he lined up behind her.
‘I love a strong woman like you,’ Feng Kai Ze said.
Feng Kai Ze was grateful he stole Da Tian Ting’s diary. He would have hated her for the rest of his life if he didn’t read her diary.
‘Mr Feng, we’re strangers,’ Da Tian Ting said. ‘Don’t act like we’re close.’
Da Tian Ting’s bus arrived. She hopped on the bus, and paid for her ticket. She sat on a vacant window seat, and stuck her tongue out at Feng Kai Ze.
Feng Kai Ze watched Da Tian Ting’s bus depart.
‘Da Tian Ting, we’re not strangers,’ Feng Kai Ze said to the back of the bus. ‘We’ve known each other since primary school.’
