Tanaka's POV.

I woke up to the sudden sound of my alarm clock going off and I groaned and rolled over to my side to shut it off. I heard the birds chirping outside, trying to adjust my eyes to the bright morning sun hitting my eyes. Do I even have a purpose to get out of bed today? It's not like I have a job. I get benefits from the government because of my "endangering mental health." Whatever. I haven't showed not one ounce of ever wanting to be violent towards a person a day in my life but they so dearly 𝘪𝘯𝘴𝘪𝘴𝘵 that any one of these days I can just break. I rolled over onto my back and sighed pushing my long black hair out my face. I looked to my right to see that my sheets had,yet again, somehow gotten off my body and ended up on the floor. I'm used to this by now. I don't know what I'm doing in my sleep for it to be ending up that way but it just...happens. I stared at the ceiling with thoughts flooding my mind. Do I even need to get out of bed? Nothing special goes on in my day anyways. I wake up late, shower, drink coffee, read, tend to my garden, sit in the garden and think about my precious dove. The cycle repeats. I should get a pet to at least fix this loneliness I have but the only problem is I'm 𝘷𝘦𝘳𝘺 picky behind what I want. I want a cat but I'm allergic. I could get a dog but I hate mutt's. There's always a rabbit but they die too quickly. Birds would never be my first choice, they're too noisy. I can't have a pet anyways. I don't care about life anyways. I know that Lola had mentioned recently that she would love a pet bunny. I was planning on getting her one for Christmas since it's right around the corner. I know that she works at that local flower shop and I 𝘥𝘰 need more seeds so I can plant more roses. But, I don't have the courage to walk in there... I sighed and put my arm over my eyes. If I don't go there and talk to her I'll never have a chance with her and eventually she'll realize that I've been breaking into her house and watching her every move. But I'm an introvert and kind of shy. Fuck it, I have nothing better to do. It's now or never. I threw my pillow that I normally cuddle with on the other side of the bed and got out of bed, stretching my already sore muscles. I probably should've checked up on my precious before going to the bathroom. Yes, I did go as far as putting a camera in her room. I wonder what she's up to...

Meanwhile with Lola...

Lola's POV.

I woke up to the sound of my alarm and I sighed and sat up, yawning. I turned off my alarm and looked over to the left side of my bed to see that the covers were pulled back on that side. I don't remember pulling them back... Hm, probably must've done it in my sleep. I got out of bed and looked through my closet, trying to figure out what I'm going to wear today. I decided on something comfy because well...it is Friday after all!

I headed to the bathroom first to use the toilet, do my face routine, and do my normal everyday style hair which was just having it straightened, bangs pushed behind my ears with a flower pin that my secret admirer gave me. For the makeup I chose to go with today was a softie look which, of course, was my style! Well, one of my favorite styles. I decided to go with a pastel pink and slight baby blue sparkly eyeshadow with a crisp wing eyeliner look and some light blush around my cheeks and nose, topping it all off with a pink heart on my left cheek and some fake freckles. My lashes were already long so I don't really need to buy or have fake lashes. I put on some light pink lipstick and smiled to myself, enjoying my look. I went back to my room to freshen myself up and put on my clothes. The clothes of choice that I put on was a hot pink jacket, a white cropped tube shirt, some leopard print short shorts, a jean miniskirt, some very fluffy panda thigh high socks, and lastly some cow slippers. Jewelry choice, I wanted to be very simple today so I put on a smiley face necklace with boba tea earrings and colorful pastel colored bracelets. My workplace doesn't really have a dress code so technically everyone gets to show up in whatever they want. I looked at the time to see that it was 7:00a.m. Oh wow, it's very early- The flower shop doesn't open until 9a.m. so I had plenty of time to eat and catch up on my show that I fell asleep on last night. I grabbed all my necessary things like my purse, phone, and house keys and headed downstairs. Eh, I didn't really feel like making breakfast so I guess I'll get me some pancakes or a muffin from McDonald's. I walked out my apartment and put my phone inside my purse then turned to lock my door and behind me I heard the elevator doors open. "Oh! Good morning Lola."I heard a deep masculine voice say to me. I turned to see a tall man with pale skin, long brown hair drapped over the side of his shoulder wearing a brown trench coat and pink amethyst crystal around his neck, holding a plant. I recognized him to be my neighbor, Tomoko. He's what you call a "plant dad." I shouldn't be surprised by the amount of plants that he brings home almost 𝘦𝘷𝘦𝘳𝘺𝘥𝘢𝘺. He flashed me a soft smile and I returned his smile and bowed a bit. "Good morning Tomoko! I see you brought another plant...what do you plan on naming that one?"I asked and he let out a soft chuckle. "I don't know yet. It's a pink Campanula also known as a bellflower. I saw it in the garden section of Walmart and I immediately thought of you."he said and I slightly blushed. "Ah, I'm flattered! I think you should name it after me then."I offered and he looked down at the plant and his smile widened. "You know what, you're right!Thank you."he said and I nodded. "No problem!"I replied. "Oh! By the way, you should tell your boyfriend to not climb into your window every night. People are going to think that he's an intruder."Tomoko said with a slight laughter and I raised a brow. "Boyfriend? I don't have a boyfriend though."I said and Tomoko seemed to think I was joking. "Come on Lola, you don't have to lie. Tall guy, dressed in a black trenchcoat? That is your boyfriend right? I won't judge you if those are the type of guys you like."he said and I frowned a bit. Tomoko soon caught on that I was being serious and his face contorted to being worried. "Oh...well, if he's not your boyfriend then I think we should probably call the police cause I seen him come in and out of your apartment like...every night..."Tomoko said and I felt my heart sank. "Every night?!"I said in disbelief. "Yup. He often comes at around like 10:30p.m. and leave at 4:50a.m. But yesterday he came pretty early while you were at work. Are there any signs of this guy doing anything....weird to you?"Tomoko asked and I shook my head no. "I mean, the only thing I noticed was that this morning the left side of my bed looked liked someone had been laying in it and over the week I noticed that articles of my clothing were going missing...I never would've expected a intruder would be coming into my house...how long has this been happening?"I asked and Tomoko thought for a moment. "I don't know...maybe over a month? Maybe when you first got here?"he said and I slightly hit him in his arm. "And you didn't tell me?!"I said Tomoko tried shushing me. "I'm sorry! I thought that he was your lover or something...look, while you're at work I'll file a police report okay? I'll ask the landlord to change your locks and look over the security footage."he said and I sighed. "It's fine I guess... I'll see you later Tomoko."I said and he sighed. "Take care Lola."he replied and walked into his apartment. I walked out the building with thoughts racing through my mind. I never would've thought I would have a stalker.... I mean, I've read many stories and fanfics like that but I didn't think that it would happen to me! Hopefully by getting my locks and stuff changed I'll be fine. I let out a sigh and walked down to the nearest McDonald's and settled on getting a sausage McMuffin with a sweet tea.
