What Do I do About My Landlady’s Brother That Is Sexually Harassing Me?

I’m an introvert and a writer, so I spend most of my time inside writing. I just moved into a new neighborhood.

When I moved in, my landlady introduced me to her brother when he came to visit. I greeted him politely.

Later, my landlady told me her brother had been talking about me. He said he didn’t like that I was always alone and that I should try to come out and socialize more. Every time he visited her, he would ask about me.

I thought maybe I was being too distant, so I decided that next time he came, I would try to be more friendly and casual with him.

When he came again, I went out to greet him. I told him I heard he always asks about me. He said he was just concerned because I’m always indoors alone and he wanted me to have a friend. I smiled, thanked him, and i took his number promising to call him. I had planned to call him that week, but there was no power and my phone was dead.

He came again last Saturday to visit my landlady and after he finished talking to her. He came to my room. I let him inside. My house na small house o. No parlor inside. He asked why I didn’t call him. I explained there was no light. Then he told me I should know that he likes me. He asked if I have a boyfriend, and I said yes. Then he asked me if we have sex. I told him I couldn’t answer that. He said I was acting like a small girl.

Then he came closer and started touching my legs. I moved away. He said he loves tall girls. I kept begging him, “Please sir, I will call you, let’s talk later.” But he kept trying to touch me, and I kept dodging him, running to the other side of the room. Eventually, he left.

I went straight to my landlady and reported what happened. She said she was surprised to hear that and promised to warn him the next time he came.

He came again today. She confronted him about it, but he denied everything. Then he came to my room and knocked again. This time I refused to open the door. I pretended to be asleep until he left.

When I came out, my landlady told me he denied it all and asked me if I was sure I was telling the truth. Now he’s making me look like a liar.

I know he will come to visit again on Sunday, and this time I’m ready to confront him. What should I do? This man is old enough to be my father.
