Now that Mr. Ansell and Ava were in the car, Mr. Ansell chose to drive his own car rather than ask the driver for help. Suddenly a thought arose in the heart of the man if he wanted to be alone with Ava without anyone disturbing their closeness.
Ava looked at the street, it felt like she had not come out of the Almero residence for a long time, but it was also only 2 months ago, the last time Ava came out of Almero's house was when Maria and Emma tried to kidnap him and also commit violence against him. Ava's heart throbbed with pain as she recalled all the harsh treatment Maria and Emma had for her, both completely devoid of conscience.
“How are they doing now,” muttered Ava shrieked with the net still continuing to look out the window.
“You want to see them?” ask Mr. Ansell. Ava's murmur was too loud that Mr. Ansell could hear it so easily.
Ava pulled her attention from the street, now the beautiful netra looked at Mr. Ansell who also looked at her even though only a glance, because the man refocused on driving this car before anything went wrong.
“Can I see their condition?” ask Ava. Ava may indeed hate both of them, but both are also family even though only Ava here who considers them as family.
“I'll take you to meet them, then we'll go for dinner outside,” Mr. Ansell told Ava. “Make sure if you will not be pity to see the condition of both of them,”, said Mr. Ansell trying to remind Ava not to be tempted by persuading them.
“Now, I have not seen the condition directly,” said Ava who is not easy to promise because Ava does have a soul of care so high, he said, it is not easy to ignore the pain that is being felt by others, especially that person had lived one roof with him.
Mr. Ansell reviewed a very thin smile, he could have guessed that Ava would answer that. Mr. Ansell's hand suddenly stretched out and started rubbing Ava's cheek in a slow motion.
“Looks like I have to be by your side all the time, otherwise there will be a lot of people who will deceive my wife,”, said Mr. Ansell.
Ava's body immediately stiffened after listening to what Mr. Ansell had just said. Is it true that man wants to take care of her forever? Is it really like that? Doesn't it mean that Mr. Ansell will never leave him? All the questions were gathered on Ava's tongue, but she dared not speak what was in her mind. Ava was afraid that if Mr. Ansell just wanted to talk because from the beginning the man had never liked her, maybe now the relationship between the two was much better, but Ava still remembered very well if Mr. Ansell wanted to marry him because he did not want to lose the inheritance from Mr. Sam. Yeah, that's all.
After some time travel finally the car driven by Mr. Ansell finally arrived in front of the prison where Maria and Emma were. Yes, since two months ago this is where the two evil women live.
Mr. Ansell was holding Ava by the hand when he was taken into custody, and two policemen led them to Maria's room and Emma was in. Mr. Ansell had already sent word to the two of them that he and Ava would visit to see the two prisoners, so it was no wonder the police welcomed them both in a friendly manner
Actually Ava and also Mr. Ansell can meet the two prisoners in a place that has been provided, he said, but Mr. Ansell refused out of fear that Ava would be hurt because the two women must have taken revenge on his wife and for that reason now Ava and Mr. Ansell were standing in front of the bars it's been two months since I locked up Maria and Emma.
The two policemen kept their distance from Mr. Ansell and Ava, but both of them still gave wary gazes. Fear if there are things that are not desired will happen and escape their observation.
Ava felt her cheeks heat up when she saw maria and Emma who took the remaining rice from the other prisoners, the rice even looks not worth eating. Emma and Maria scramble for rice that has not been eaten by other prisoners and more heartbreakingly, the food has been stepped on by other prisoners. So disgusting. It is sad for their fate. Ava seemed to feel d’javu when she saw this scene.
Flashbacks.
“Ma, please give the food to Ava, Ava is very hungry because since lunch has not eaten anything, even Ava snacks have also been taken, Mama took,” said little Ava while whining under the feet of Maria who is now sitting at the dining table while enjoying all the delicious dishes on the table.
Ava did not get any response from Maria, she began to step closer to Emma who is now enjoying two pieces of fried chicken with a large size in both hands. Ava sipped her saliva when she saw it, her stomach began to sound again to cause pain achibat late eating.
Emma began to stare at Ava then dropped the two pieces of chicken in her hand onto the plate. “Ava want to eat?” asked Emma with her sadistic grin.
Ava who was still so naive immediately wiped the tears that had fallen soaked her cheeks with the back of her hand then reviewed the sweet smile by nodding her head and answering. “Ava is very hungry,” Ava replied honestly with a vibrating voice.
Ava's smile vanished along with Emma's hand spilling the food on the plate onto the floor then Emma got up and stepped on the food with a satisfied smile as if what she had just done was a funny thing.
“Ups .. forgive Emma, Ava. But the food has been stepped on by Emma,”, Emma said with a very annoying face.
“Ava must be very hungry once, this is eating also rice leftover mama.” Mary did what Emma had done before, and the obedient woman stepped on her as if the food was worthless in her eyes.
Ava cried sobbing by holding her increasingly hungry stomach. Ava fell to the floor with a trembling body. Ava's eye beads look at the food in front of her, wanting her heart to get rid of the disgust she had in her eyes just to prop up her hungry stomach, but Ava had never eaten the rest of the other person before, Ava could not eat the rice that had been stepped on by emma and also Maria, but Ava's stomach continued to sound to make her feel nauseous because of the hunger.
“If only Mama were alive, surely Ava would never have experienced all of this, ” Ava's inner self with trembling hands began to pick up the food that was not worth eating right off the floor, with both eyes closed the little boy put the disgusting food in his mouth. The clear thread continued to wet both of his cheeks.
“If this is the case, she looks like a pet,” Emma said with a satisfied laugh.
“He is indeed our pet,” Maria continued inhumanely.
Flashback complete.
“Ava, help us. Look at them giving us food that is not worth it,” said Emma who has now seen Ava's whereabouts.
“Honey, please release us from this cursed place,” Maria continued with tears of sadness.
There was no beauty left from the skinny bodies of the two women. Maria increasingly looks old because she does not do care or polish her face using makeup as usual. Emma looks much older than her age, because the woman has not done a series of treatments that have always supported her appearance.
“If this is how he looks like a pet,” Ava said by withstanding the vibrations in each word. “She is indeed our pet,” Ava continued again still looking towards Maria and also Emma with a view that began to blur because it was covered with tears.
“What did you say?” asked Mr. Ansell who was beginning to be confused by what Ava said just now.
Ava smiled wryly by looking at Mr. Ansell then thanks, “I used to be in this position, they did not allow me to eat from noon until night, I whined for food and the two spilled the leftover food onto the floor, I was hungry and forced to eat the food that had been trampled on by their dirty feet,” Ava explained in a trembling voice. “And that's what they said to me, I'm just a pet.”
Mr. Ansell hardened his jaw after listening to Ava's explanation just now, how could his little wife get such inhumane treatment. Mr. Ansell pulled Ava into his arms as if to show that it would never happen again. In the next instant Mr. Ansell began to stare intently at Maria and Ava, as if he wanted to tear the bodies of both, daring to do such a cruel thing to little Ava.
Emma and Mary joined hands, with trembling steps both beginning to retreat away from the bars for fear of seeing Mr. Ansell's eyes on them now.
