Best Answer
If you are playing single player then it should not despawn. You must leave the chunks and when they unload mobs can despawn.
Accordin to this stackexchange answer:
If you log off and there are no other players online, the server should immediately unload all chunks and all mobs within.
How long do monsters take to despawn?
Edit: I found an interesting fact while searching the wiki that may help in this type of situation,
If a hostile mob is tracking a player, the player can separate him or herself and the mob through a wall, relog, and the mob will no longer be tracking the player.
