The festivities ended well, with the beginning of the new year and people got back to business and other respective jobs as well, Mary was an intern Doctor at the good cure hospital since she had recently graduated, but she still was under the financial support of her family, they did that without complaining, her brother would also give her money even without asking for it. The hospital was far and she was out of time and when her leave ended she had to travel back to work. She spend the whole morning packing, she had been home for a few days and she had such huge luggage, her brother would be driving her to the airport, she would be late if she drove all the way, it takes almost five hours, she wasn't ready for all the fatigue when she can spend much less time on the plane. When she was done, she bid her family goodbye and left with her brother. She liked being a doctor, but her father had tried to tell her to choose another career on the basis that medicine would be tiresome and she would not have time for herself, he also didn't want his baby girl to get so serious since she lacked nothing, she remembers him suggesting fashion design as a better option for her but she rejected the idea and stuck to being a doctor, that's why even when she has a bad day at work she doesn't dare complain to her father, he will always tell her that he warned her against it. She talks about it with Fred since he supports her in whatever she wants to do. They left, Fred was driving while listening to his favorite music from his favorite artist Otile Brown, Mary liked his music too. Sometimes she would sing along, they talked about random issues till they got to the airport. Fred did not forget to remind her to tell him of anyone who tries to Bully her. He always had a way of dealing with those bullies. Mary laughed at that reminder. She hugged her brother before they parted and he left. On the other hand, Greg asked Moses to check out on her, and when he came back he had all her information including her age and contact details, he sent her an email but she didn't reply. He wished to see her so in the evening he decided to pretend to be her friend and went looking for her when he got to the gate, he told the gate man to call her out that her long-time friend was looking for her. The gateman was in doubt, he told him that Mary had gone back to work. Greg had done a background check and he knew she had studied medicine. To indirectly ask which hospital she worked at, he asked if she had been transferred or was still working at the same place, the gate man told him that she was still working at the good cure hospital. Since it was a famous hospital, Greg didn't need to ask for more information less he gets discovered. It was then it dawned on him that she was out of town. He felt disappointed but could not show it. He left with a mood that wasn't pleasant. He had a lot to do at the company so it would not be easy to make time to travel but he would give it a trial. considering the way he was held up, he needed about a week before he could ease the load of work at his disposal. With that, he sent out one of his men to keep an eye on her, as he prepares to go and see her. GREG I have a lot to do and I need to get this girl no matter what, he said to himself. When Mary got to her apartment, she was so exhausted, she slumped on the sofa. The place was already dusty, she sneezed and jumped up from the sofa, it was evident she could not rest on the sofa, so she went straight to her bedroom, freshened up, changed her bedding then lay down for a while. She was later woken up by a phone call from Fred, who wanted to know if she arrived safely. Mary smiled sleepily before picking up the call, she was so lucky to have such a brother who doted on her that much. Hey bro, just got home a while ago and decided to have some rest before calling you, she said before he could ask why she did not inform him when she arrived. That tells you I am perfectly fine. You could not even wait for me to ask, he said. Well I knew what you would say so I just answered your question in advance she said and they both laughed.
Greg's guy has been following Mary to and fro for some time now without being noticed. He is good at what he is doing since he has been doing the job for years. Mary drives to work in the morning and comes back in the evening every day, she has a feeling that someone is following her around. Her immediate neighbor told her that there was a guy he saw a few days ago peeking at her door. Mary did not think much about it but as it is now she can feel some tension building up within her, the feeling is not good at all but whatever it is she is going to find out.She got home with a creepy feeling that day, from afar before she could get down from the car, she saw something at her doorstep, seemingly like a huge dog or so. She wasn't sure what it was so she walked out carefully and alert in case anything happens to her. When she got closer, she saw some movements from whatever it was, at a closer look, it
