Episode 40

Ava's Point Of View,

I was standing there and looking at her angry face. She was looking so angry and wild. I just know that it will happen the moment I will tell her this and I am glad that she did not say anything else to me, or else I just do not know what I would do and how to handle this.

I know all these years passed but her anger for him did not decrease. She still curses him sometimes when she gets angry and upset or sometimes when she sees Luke upset, she curses him and I just listen to her without even saying anything.

"Why you were not telling me the truth Ava. Tell me when did he come back exactly and why did you hide it from me", she asked me again and I just took a deep breath. Did not I know that was gonna come soon? I know if I will tell her the truth, thousands of questions would be waiting for me and now I just have to tell her everything.

"Mom, I just did not tell you because I do not want you to get worried about me, and trust me, I am just trying to get strong and I know that I can handle this, so just do not worry about this, okay", I said to her as she was looking at me with narrow eyes.

"How dare you hide it from me and what did you say to me, that he wants you back? Let me talk to him. I will tell him what did he miss? I am not gonna spare his ass, what he thinks of himself? How could he do this to you? He really thinks that it is some kind of game or something", as I expected she got so angry with him again.

"Mom, please relax. Will you? I am fine, everything is fine. He is just asking for one chance and he wants me to hear him once", I told her and earned a glare from her.

"Do not you tell me that you already thinking to give him a chance, do not you dare to do that, he does not deserve a chance from you, so now tell me what are you planning to do, what is your plan with him, tell me now", she asked me as she came close to me and I just gulped hard.

"And one more thing, you are telling me this now when I asked you about it. When I asked you where you were lost and why you disappeared, that is when you told me about him. So what is the connection of this? How this is linked? Do not tell me that you were with him, that is why you forget that you are having a son too", she asked me and I just glared at her hard.

"Mom, how can you say this? That is not the truth mom. I was not with him", I yelled at her. I do not know how the hell I got the courage to yell when I was to blame. She was right, I was with him, but there is no way that I am gonna accept this and tell her.

"Then tell me where the hell you were? Tell me right now", she asked me and I just closed my eyes to calm myself down. I gulped hard and opened my eyes.

"I was at the bar, drinking like a drunker and no one was there to stop me, so I fell asleep there. I was so fucking tensed mom.

I was stressed, I saw him after all these years. Do you really think that I could act normally after seeing him? My heart still aches for him, he is the dad of Luke after all", I yelled at my mom.

Tears build up in my eyes and started rolling down my cheeks. I was really stressed and I just do not know what I will do now.

Mom was just looking at me and did not say anything. She was worried for me now and that is what I did not want but it just happened and I am feeling so guilty.
