The secret admirer

The strange letter

Shit's gotten really fucked up lately, objects in my house keep being moved, my spare key has gone missing 6 times. Each time I've had to change the locks, I have even had a fucking hot coffee and breakfast placed neatly on my table with a stupid fucking note saying, 'I love you xx ♥'.

Actually, none of  this is going to make any sense. I'll start from the beginning. Okay, so it all started a few months ago. 6 months prior, I dumped my ex for cheating on me and as a fall back due to the depression I'd go to bars, fuck women and drink till I didn't know what which way was up and eventually passing out. Not really sure if it was a half assed attempt at suicide, honestly I don't think I cared at the time.

After the 6 months of utter self hatred and pity I started sobering up, I calmed down with the drinking and sleeping with girls. Life was finally looking a little brighter for the first time in 6 months. I work at a Tech shop call TechSav, I know it's unoriginal. It's pay is alright and it's not to hard, you get the occasional old person who couldn't tell a Tablet from a toaster but I guess it's bound to happen every now and again.

After a long day at work, I was driving home. I pulled up to the front of my house, turning down the volume of the radio and putting up the driver's window, I turned off the car and got out. Making sure to lock it of course. I drag my feet along the floor to the letter box, opening the top lid to find a single letter addressed, 'Michael♥ '.

I remember thinking, 'I wonder who sent this. Did they get the right guy?'. I bring the letter with me closing the letter box and walking to my door. Fumbling in my pocket to get my house key, I successfully pulled out the key and unlocked my door.

I sit in my lounge chair and open the letter, here's what it read:

"Hey Michael,

I've been watching you for a long time now, first it started with me watching you from a distance whilst you worked. But after awhile, it kind of slowly formed into an addiction. You were always on my mind, I couldn't get you out of my head. I even touch myself to the thoughts of you taking my body and your hands trailing themselves over me. You have never noticed me, you probably never even knew I existed, I've known you existed though. I've been following you for a while now, learning your patterns. The way you walk, talk, act, the way your emotions reflect on your facial expressions. Everything. I know your name, address, friends and family. And even that SLUT TWO-FACED BITCH called Katie. Your ex-girlfriend. Don't worry sweetie, I wouldn't hurt you like that. I care for you so much it hurts, you may not have known who I was, but that's going to change.

Love,

Your secret admirer xx"
