Something shattered behind them. They got cautious and turned back. A vase fell on the floor. It must have been wind. It was a windy day after all. They both went to their rooms. Ari was convinced that she saw someone's shadow beside the vase. She was afraid that she knew the answer. However Leon thought that she was overthinking.A new day rose paving way to the new opportunities. Ari woke up and stretched her body. Ella was sleeping beside her. Though she said Leon that she won't think about what happened between them. It was bothering her. She saw the whole scene in her dreams.
Ari was applying for jobs. She has been living here for a while now. It is not like anyone is saying anything to her but guests look good only for a while. And she is an unwanted guest. These odd jobs were no good. She will never be able to give a decent life to Ella with them.She has been on computer for hours now. She was a little exhausted. So she made herself some coffee. She turned on the TV. News channel was already on. Their was a familiar guy on the news. She was curious about where she saw him. And then she realized it was the same guy who tried to kidnap Ella. He was brutally killed in his own house. He was on all the news channel. They were saying that he was a member of some gang.
Dear diary, I have a lot of topics in my head that are slowly eating me but this is hitting me hard. I had no connection with that man what so ever. He even tried to take Ella from me but I can't help ut feel sorry for him. I am getting a feeling like he didn't deserved what happened to him and someone killed him to supress something. I think that he wanted to tell me something. He gave me a hint. And someone is trying to keep that from me. I wonder who it could be? I am not even sure if what I am thinking is right or not. Maybe it is just a story that my mind made up. But whatever it is I will have to dive into it because I think it will lead me to the father of my daughter.
Leon was heading out for work. Ava came and hygged him from behind,"You were going without saying bye?" She said.He turned towards her and wrapped his hands around her waist. "You were sleeping so peacefully I didn't wanted to disturb you. In fact I want to cuddle you and sleep beside you. But again that would have disturbed you.""Or...""Or what?""Maybe ypu are trying to be fine on your own without me.""What do you mean by it Ava?""Nothing, I am just bothering you. But if there is anything that ypu want to tell to me then I am all ears.""No sweety, I really want to talk to ypu but I am getting late so I will see you in th evening?""Sure." She gave him a kiss. After that he walked towards his car, "I heard you" She whispered.
Leon's mom was nice enough to say that she will let look after Ella for a while. Ari told her that she needed a little time to herself. When the fact was that she wanted to collect some clues about her daughters father.She had a strong feeling that she will get to know more about him by digging into the case of the man that tried to take Ella.She was a little thirsty so she went to the kitchen. Ava was there. She was seeing her for the first time after the moment she had with Leon. She was thinking if she shpuld greet Ava or not. Ava greeted her first.
"Oh Hi, I didn't see you." Ari said. She was getting uncomfortable for she knew that Ava hated her to the very core."Of course you didn't see me." Ava smirked. "I am not the one you were expecting Ari.""No that's not what I meant. I meant that I wasn't expecting you here.""You were not expecting me in my own house?""N-No I meant that in the kitchen. You don't come in the kitchen often.""Doesn't means I can't.""Sure it doesn't means that you can't. I don't know where we are getting with this conversation.""I don't know you tell me. I am just conversing. Is there anything you want to tell me?"
Ari wasn't sure what Ava was talking about. She was thinking what she should say in return although she had a rough idea. She thought that maybe she should tell him about what happened between her and you know."Ava there is something that you should know.""What is it?" Ava smirked."I don't know how to tell you this but...""Let me make it easy for you. If it is about you and Leon then you shouldn't bother. I know about it." Ari stammered, while Ava looked chill. She was just standing casually. "I am sorry Ava""You don't have to worry about it" Saying so she walked away.
Ari went to the house of that man. It wasn't hard to find. It was all over the news channel. Not always people get killed in their own place. Out of all the places in the world it is supposed to be a safe space. It has been a few days since he died and he was a member of the gang. So this case was more open and shut for the police. There was a barrier on the front door but there was no one guarding it. Well it was a relief and it will make it easier for her to break in.The door was locked. Well she was prepared for this. She took out her hair pin. She has seen a lot of detective films while she was a baby. 1... 2... 3... tada the door opened.
