update
I am now convinced this woman is out for me. I was laying in bed last night, I got up to use the bathroom once this was at about 12:30am. This time she did not bang on my door but she did ring my doorbell 300 times. I got up, walked to the door and she asked me to open the door to talk to her while repeatedly ringing my door bell as she talked. This time she spoke to me very softly.
I told her she can call the police as I will not be talking to her and she continued to stand at my door ringing the door bell so I called the police. The police showed up and she tried to tell them I was making all kinds of noise, talking, and stomping around. Her boyfriend was also outside telling them. I promise on whatever god you believe in, I was lying in bed!! I haven’t played the game because I thought this would be the best route until I go home, I haven’t talked to anyone, and I guess if me walking to pee was an issue then okay she got me there.
She did try to enter my apartment as the police came to my door but the officers told her to get back. She also did bang on my walls several times today when I did laundry, when I used my microwave and again when I was lying in bed this happened all at different times throughout the afternoon and then in the evening when I went to bed. I cannot exist in this apartment.
The police were very supportive and assured me they told her she cannot attack or hurt me. I’m sure she will listen. They told me to keep my door locked properly, don’t open it for her, and call the police if she comes back. I’m exhausted. Am I going to end up shanked from behind one day and this be one of those stories where the police continued to show up and did nothing? I’ve contacted the apartment manager but they are extremely slow to get back to me and they did inform me there was no camera in the hallway. I’m so frustrated, scared, and I truly cannot stand living here anymore. I don’t know what to do.
update
I just installed my ring doorbell camera and already feel a lot better being able to see outside my door without physically having to using the peep hole. I am a little concerned that this may be an issue because anyone walking by my door to use the elevator will without a doubt have to walk in front of my door and therefore be caught on camera.
For now though for my safety I feel like I need this and it will at least help me get some sleep tonight. My apartment managers have still not gotten back to me so I am just left waiting. I wish I could get a place to stay for my last month but unfortunately I am here on scholarship and just simply cannot afford it. I will continue to update, this time maybe with some footage if anything happens. Thank you all for your advice, concern, and well wishes. Here’s to my last month in Tokyo.
