chapter 3 -pov AVA

see him looking at me but I don't do anything.  I turn and walk away from the kitchen " I am going to change " I say to him. He responds with an 'okay.

I go into my room and I changed into a cute outfit. I have blue mom jeans on me and a white shirt.

TIMEPASS

It's late, I need only to make sure that everything is clean for tomorrow. I make sure that everything is perfect but I hear the bell go.  "It's closed," I say to the big guy that had a black suit on. I am nervous.  the hair on my back makes me shiver constantly.  "Remember, me?" He says as he takes a gun out of his blazer. In my neck, there is now a knot that makes me stutter and cannot speak properly.  " I don't think so " I stutter. The only thing that separates both of us is the front counter.

"Why don't you remember me?" His voice is filled with annoyance and arrogance.

"Ha I don't think we met before, " I say to him. But I think that makes him angrier. He looks for something in his black blazer. He pushes some photos to me. I hitch. Hesitantly pulling the photos to me.  Scared. That's what I feel. I look at him. 

"You...YOU ARE THE FUCKING IDIOT WHO KILLED MY PARENTS?"  I shout at him and bang my hand on the desk. My eyes are filled with tears. "But did you ever ask why silly?" He says as he crosses his arms.

"They borrowed some money from us and...they didn't give it back to us, of course, we had to kill them. But after we killed your parents you got a hit in the head. I left you alone there until the cops came they didn't find anything about us so they didn't know what to say to you when you'll wake up so they kept it a secret." He smirks an evil smirk is evil.

I stay paralysed but the tears didn't stop falling from my eyes." anyways goodbye  I hope you have a good night " with that he left. I stay and stay until I hear the doorbell once again.

I see Mathew looking at me with worried eyes. "They did it. They killed my parents they took their lives. I DON'T KNOW EVEN WHAT IS THE REAL TRUTH. " I have a breakdown. I cry and cry. I feel big arms hugging me. I don't know how to feel.

I am devastated I feel numb I feel like nobody. Did they kill my sweet parents? how am I still alive? Why didn't they kill me when they had a chance? It hurts. It's not the price to cry now. What's in the past stays. even if it means to leave someone who you adored. I take big breaths and  I whisper so many things that I forgot about. "I am here ok I'm here ava please stop crying "Mathews's voice echoed in my head but I didn't say anything. I let the ugly dark take me.
