Cruel World

Chapter 45: chap44

Roma

She looked at the white walls of the prison...she was nervous that she will be caught but she also knows this is the save place to do what she wants...she was waiting in the personal office of the jailer and look at the time since holding a Grey name no one ever raises a finger on her...she has to be back at home in half an hour...everyone will be awake for breakfast and start looking for her.

The jailer came with a cunning smile and literally bow her ...Roma roll her eyes...'Im in hurry...here's the packet'

She put down the brown packet and stand, the jailer's eyes spark with greed and she opens the packet and smiles 'Mrs grey your kind gesture always make me happy...thank you so much...

Roma arrogantly said 'You know why you get this money...do what I want and don't tell anyone that I came here'

Jailer nodes quickly 'of course Mrs. grey...I will make sure to torture that little mouse more, but you do know I can also do something else ...you just give me a signal'

Roma knows what she is indicating, and she shivers with the thought...surely, she wants Sarah to live a miserable life but killing her is enough? She was nervous what to say on this....6 years are more but not enough for what Sarah did with her daughter, she all see red when she thought about that

Roma wear her sunglasses 'I want you to mentally torture her maybe she kills herself' she gives her a knowing smile

Theo

He wakes again the way he is waking up with that dream ...he shakes his head and get ready for office...he was going down for breakfast but stop to check Ava room..it was across this office...he was hesitant in the start to shift in different room but his mom was determined that its time for him to move on.

He opens the door and saw the small and tiny figure of Ava playing with a broken doll which appearance looks like it was well used.

He winced when he realized it's the same doll that Sarah has got for Ava when they were in Miami...after that Ava never got toys...he looked at the almost empty room of Ava..where a small bed was placed with a small draw and few toys that were well used and were not for playing age of two years old...he feels guilty that he makes million monthly and here his daughter doesn't have any toys and not any sizable clothes...it was a gut-wrenching moment that Olivia had all the facility and luxury a child can want and here his daughter doesn't have a good dress to wear.

Theo had a thought ...he thinks today was Ava birthday too so he can at least buy her some new clothes and toys too...yes he can do that...it just clothes nothing more

Ava might have seen her she turn and look him with her golden big eyes 'good mooning daddy'

Theo look away ...why she affect him so much when she said him daddy, he nodes ..' morning Ava'

Ava remove her red curly hair from her face and stare at him...he feels uncomfortable...'wheres your nanny' he said in a composed tone

Ava pout and said cutely 'don't know..she go...me waiting for food' she rubs her tummy C0pyright © 2024 Nôv)(elDrama.Org.

Theo raised his eyebrows 'you are hungry?'

She nodes and again removes her red hair from her face

Theo then softly said 'it's almost 8:30 you should have eaten yet'

Ava replied innocently 'but I get food after dadda, grandma, aunt Lisa uncle tom and daddy had eaten then'

Theo suspiciously looks to her and see the innocence in her eyes .. realize she was saying the truth...he feels that pain he never want to pain....it was just like before when Sarah was ordered to eat when everyone has eaten...he felt an intense anger.

He tightly said 'come, Ava, we are going down'

Ava look scared but she nodes...she walks with her small legs and starts walking with Theo

Theo tries to control his anger and enter the dining hall...it was empty he shakes his head....Theo called messy ....messy run and said 'yes sir'

'where the hell are everyone and why the breakfast is not in the table' Theo literally shout

Messy looks down 'Sir I don't know and you know since Mrs Brickson has resigned sonothing is manageable...I will get your breakfast'

Theo shakes his head and tries to control his anger 'bring fast and also bring Ava breakfast here....and where is her nanny ...when you find her tell her I'm calling her'

Messy nodes and run to the kitchen.

Theo sighs and sit down and start pouring coffee.He then saw a small figure standing right beside his chair and looking at the fruit placed on the table,he looked at her and then told her 'come here'

She slowly took a step and Theo took a banana and peel it off and give it to her ...she took it from his hold and give him a cute smile that made his heart melt ...she start eating quickly ...it made recall those

days when he kept Sarah hungry for days and like Ava when she got the food she start eating fast...he can't breathe..it's too much.

Theo took a sip of his coffee and looked at her with a different eye...he never wanted her and he always treated her very badly and strangely but today when she smiles at him it made him feel more guilty and sad .

When breakfast was brought Theo put some eggs on Ava plat and hold her to make her sit on the chair but when he holds he realized she was too light...he frowns..is she is not getting the food well?

When they were eating he saw Ava nanny talking on the phone but she put down when she saw Theo

'where were you' Theo said in anger

She hesitates 'Ahhh sir..i...actually it was my father ..he lives out of the country..do you need something'

Theo put down Theo his cutlery 'when she woke?'

She replied slowly 'around 6 or 7am'

Theo intermediate node ''and what time is it now'

She trembles 'hmmm 8;45'

Theo glared at her 'so it's alright for a child to be hungry for fuc..(he looks at Ava) 2 hours straight...why didn't you got her breakfast first'

She got scared 'actually sir..Ava had her milk first then her breakfast..i asked her if she wanted to have breakfast now but she said she was not hungry'

Theo replied 'do you think a child knows better about herself more or an adult?'

'whats happening here' Roma came with some shopping bag

Theo raised an eyebrow 'mom...you were out?'

Roma said 'yes I had to cause of today party...but whats happening here'

Theo glared at the nanny 'she left Ava alone and had not give her breakfast on time'

Roma shook her head 'Theo it's not her fault ...this girl has a tantrum of an old lady...she always had her breakfast when she wants..you go now (she look at the nanny) and also take her (she pointed at Ava)'

But theo stops her 'no she is eating now...no need to disturb her...you can go' he said to the nanny who looked pissed she pass a look to Ava and was gone

Roma also sit down and glare at Ava 'so today what this girl is doing on the table'

Ava looks down and hides her face ..Theo sighs 'mom will you let her eat and secondly since you are here I want to talk to you'

Roma picks the coffee jug and nodes ...Theo said 'Mom I got the phone from new york central jail and it was Sarah...she was saying she still hasn't seen Ava like for a year and today she wanted to see her as it's her birthday today.'

But roma did not let Theo complete his sentence 'she is fucking lying' Theo looked at Ava who stops eating and looked scared

Theo replied 'mom please control yourself...

but Roma was furious 'how should I ...every month your daughter meet that women ..if you don't believe me then call the central jail..or anyone...you have given me a responsibility I would never betray

you'

Theo was now confused then why Sarah said so...he looked at his mother eyes and feel ashamed to doubt her...he still cants believe himself that for a moment he pity that women who killed his sister.

Theo hold his mother hands 'mom I won't check anyone because I trust you'

Ava then tuck theo sleeves and said 'me done'

Roma scrawled on her and yelled 'hey leave his sleeves your hands are dirty'

She automatically leaves and makes a crying face 'sooory'

Theo soften his expression 'its ok Ava...now go to messy and wash your hand'

She nodes and run away.

Roma was still pissed 'I don't want her in today Olivia's party'

This makes Theo tick 'Why mom because I think a 2-year-old can't do much to ruin this special party of yours'

Roma glared at him 'You have no idea...whose blood is running inside her....she will be just like her mother. I want her to stay away from my Olivia'

Theo sighs ' sometimes mom I think you forget she is just a child...a child of your child' Theo finally said it with unease

Roma sarcastically laugh 'oh so this girl is finally won your heart, nice'

Theo shakes his head and stand 'mom its late for office and please send Ava today to meet Sarah...this way she will also stay away from your party and I will try to attend the party latter'

Roma was quite but Theo did not move until he hears from her. She huff 'ok ok I know you think I'm a heartless person but ok I will send her to met her mother like I always do'

Theo replied calmly 'thank you mom'

Sarah

She was impatiently looking at the officer's cabin that anyone will come and let her inform her daughter is here to meet her......she was keep on looking at the door and cleaning the gym area...she saw some of the inmates working out and some were chatting.

She was lost in her thoughts that she saw a bulky woman deliberately came and pushed Sarah...Sarah who was so lightweight suddenly lost her balance and falls down on her knee and she yelped in pain...she stands and saw that bulky women were laughing at her 'yo girl you were on my fucking way'

Sarah got irritated and turns away and start working somewhere else but again she saw that bulky women pushed her by hand 'hi skinny girl get away from my side'

Sarah who was on her nerve for days and she lost it 'whats your problem I'm doing my work here ...you are coming on my way'

The bulky women yelled at her 'how fucking dare you'

Sarah moves back and she felt someone was on her back...she saw it was Helen

Helen pushed aside Sarah and stand in front of her 'yup fenny any problem'

Sarah saw that fenny women eyes were now a little scared 'no ..this new girl was messing with me'

Helen replied 'we all saw who was messing with who....go somewhere else I will talk to you later...and don't ever touch her'

The bulky women nodes automatically and run...Helen turns to Sarah 'girl I told you to get smart and strong not fool...

Sarah blushed and open her mouth to say something

Helen raises her hand 'save it...but since you are in the gym come I will tell you some self-defence tricks'

Sarah looks doubtful 'im not sure...and secondly, today my daughter will come so I'm waiting'

Helen gives her a bored look 'your call but if your daughter came surely you will be informed but if you want to survive here then follow me'

Helen walks away and Sarah looks unsure what to do ...Helen was right if Ava came she they will tell her...and secondly, she can learn something too.

She walks towards Helen and said 'im ready please teach me'

Helen who was wearing boxing gloves ...looked at Sarah and turn to other inmates....she passed one to Sarah and said 'let play' she smiled

Sarah looks at the gloves and said 'I never

Helen didn't let her complete 'I know but you will from now on'

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Sarah was breathing loudly..her bones her aching...her whole body was covered in sweats and she was feeling so hot and sweaty.

Helen who look unaffected by all this ...give Sarah a hand 'we will this again tomorrow ...with some other trick'

Sarah gives her a horrified look that Helen ignore...the bell ring indicating gym time is over...sarah go to the washroom to take a quick shower and went to the jailer to ask about her daughter.

Jailer gives her an evil look 'little mice no visitor for you ...so go...and one more thing clean those bloody washroom again...' she sneered

Sarah's eyes start getting watery...no visitor...no visitor...He lied to her he fucking lied to her.

Sarah cleans the washroom and she was crying heavily...when she entered her room she saw Helen was reading something and she asked 'whats wrong..why are you crying'

Sarh quietly sit down 'she didn't come'

Helen did not say anything 'then don't hop for next time...because it will hurt more...by the way that fenny women who were giving you trouble told me that it was the jailer bitch who told her to mess with you...'

Sarah shrugs 'don't know why everyone hates me so much...I mean they don't even know me but still hurt me'..she wasn't sure whom she was pointing out

Helen closes the book 'this a cruel world we are living in it...it makes us weak and terrible but it's up to you how you fight with it'

With that, she closes her eyes and Sarah didn't sleep for the whole night and keep on thinking what her Ava might be doing on her birthday.

She hold her broken doll and was looking outside the window where she saw beautiful balloons and pink ribbons and tables and cake....she saw everyone was laughing and was kissing Olivia and saying happy birthday to her...she wanted to go out to but grandma told her not to come out otherwise she will hit her and Ava don't want to get hit...so she is looking out the window...she saw every one of her age was running and playing...she can also do that may be grandma won't see her

Ava innocently replied 'grandma say me no go to the party'

Tom and Lisa passed a disturb and hurting look. Tom said 'but you can come because I'm saying this to you..Come on'

Ava holds her uncle's hand but Lisa stop them 'tom please don't ! there are like hundreds of guest and you know mom how she reacts nowadays when she sees her ...we have no idea how she will react'

Tom shakes his head 'but Lisa

Lisa said softly 'tom plz understand look today our daughter turns one ...let mom and us enjoy this and Ava I will save the biggest chocolate cake piece for you so please stay her like grandma said ok'

Ava sadly nodes ...she wanted to go but Aunty Lisa said she stay here. Tom feel bad but he walks away with Lisa.
