Weird People Around My Block

Yesterday morning, after having breakfast with my parents, my dad dropped us off from the main road as usual.

As we were chatting with a Indian neighbour and her son while waiting for the lift, an uncle came and went into the lift with us. I forgot that he did not stay at my block. Well, there is a basketball court below my block and every morning, there will be a group of people doing routine exercise there. The uncle who came into the lift with us would always stand at the back of the group and would most of the time be looking behind. Yet he knew when the rest changed position, etc.

The uncle even tried to join in the conversations that we had with the Indian neighbour as we were commenting that her son was very friendly. After the Indian neighbour left at level 4, the uncle started to 'chat' with us and asked questions like why are we here, etc. Even comment that he saw that we always come by car daily. So how long has he been 'eyeing' on our moves? My mum had been going breakfast with my dad for a long period of time and me since the start of the semester. Now, not only 'eyeing' at us, he even goes to the extend to follow us up?

My immediate neighbour also know that he always stand behind during the exercise and always looked behind looking at the opposite sex. We always joked that one day he would '' but we didn't expect that he would follow us up. If ever happened again, would sure scold him and embarrass him in front of many people and even threaten to call the police.

My block had become a place with many weird people. A guy who always had many different Secondary School kids with him would loither around; my neighbour had pillows, etc lost when she sun them outside; they even got clothes and undergarments missing; people gambling or playing cards at void deck and even at certain level of my block at the lift lobby; there are people coming up to play with water from the tap at the staircase beside my unit; and the staircase had become a public toilet and public bathroom, etc. My area had become so unsafe. Must take extra care already. I think it would worsen when the ITE opposited my block was fully build and the school starts.
