It could be that Necolaj is a bit scared still! If she is going potty in the same place outside of the litter box, moving the litter to that spot may encourage her to start using it. Placing her stool into the litter can also help her learn that this is where to go by smelling her old stool there. An enzymatic cleaner can also be used to clean up any accidents so that she isn't encouraged to keep going potty there as well. If she's still getting used to you, lots of love, patience, kitty treats and a favorite toy can help her get more comfortable over time!
