We are going to take the last shot. I want purely aesthetic chemistry here. Ava said, settled the lens in the camera, and stood again to take the last pictures.
I think you are still in hurry today! if I am not wrong pretty? why did you call me to the studio? I have a lot of work to do. Ava's friend entered the studio and loudly interrogated her.
You better know this date, Vanessa! I have also much to do at home. Ava said
I think you should windup all now. you have to work a lot. Vanessa said
Okay. wait a few minutes. just winding up. Ava said
I am waiting for you outside. Vanessa said and went out of the studio.
I hope tonight we will have delicious dinner again by your hands, Mr Freud said. Ava nodded her head to her father's compliment and smiled but she was silent and sad as it was the birthday of her elder sister. As she made all her favourite food for Olivia, which they enjoyed together on her every birthday before marriage. She left her father's house when she got married to the son of Benjamin's family. 5 years apart, both sisters were unable to meet because Ava's father ended up all connections with Olivia for getting married to the person and family he never liked.
Dad's table is ready! Ava said
I am going to get fresh and change then I will join you, my princess..! Mr Freud said
Okay dad, I am waiting. Ava replied. After 10 minutes Mr Freud came to the dining table. The smell is like food which your mother used to cook, He said
I used my mother's recipes today, which she made for special events at home, Ava said.
Her dad noticed all the decorated meals were not according to the routine. Daddy try some stuffed eggplants and meatballs, it was the most challenging for me to cook, Ava requested
Yes, it's delicious, Mr Freud said
Daddy, have some chicken cheese strips or whatever you like. Ava said
Can you please pass me that covered plate? Mr Freud asked
Ava took off the lid and put it in front of her father. It was a chocolate cake full of cherries. Something flashed in his mind. He started staring at the table hardly making fists.
Meanwhile, Ava looked at her father, who was not in a causal mood and depicted anger.
Is everything okay daddy..!?
Why don't you make your heart corner soft for your daughter?
Why are you wrenching my heart with this behaviour?
What do I have in my life? After mom, I only have you, my sister, and my 4 years old nephew whom you never wanted me to meet..!!
It's the birthday of Olivia. That's why I made all dishes that mom made on her every birthday. After mom passed away I used to make the same. I miss her so much.
Why do you not finish the bridge of hate between you and Olivia? Lucas is your grandson ..!!!Why you cannot accept your grandson? Dad why you don't understand that after her husband passed away she is alone with her son in Benjamin's mansion? You know what dad! She is suffering a lot in that mansion and getting sick day by day… while asking her dad, Ava started crying
Stop crying, my sweetie….!! She never listens to me. She just left and became the bride of that family which I never like. She was against my wishes. When you know that I can never have a soft corner in my heart for her and her son, then why did you break my heart? Don't you pity your father even a little bit? Mr Freud asked her daughter.
You are right about everything you said, at first I was also angry at her. Her leaving broke my heart into pieces as well but dad don't you say that life is too short, we should enjoy it with our blood relations and friends? Don't you miss your grandson? Don't you crave to love and take him in your lap? Look Olivia give her name which you thought about your son. Daddy, she loves you a lot don't deprive her of your kindness. Ava again raised her voice. Mr Freud left the table and went into his room and also shut the door by saying "Ava leave me alone for this time do not try to come into my room". Ava cleaned the table, put the dishes in the dishwasher, and went into her room.
The next day in the early morning her phone rang. She picks up the call. It was a call from the hospital. Hello..!! Yes, I am her sister, which hospital? I am coming!! Ava said with a trembling voice. She reached the hospital and asked the receptionist about her sister, she told Ava that she is in an emergency on the first floor. Ava reached her sister in a second.
Ava listens to me..!!! Olivia called her with a shivering tone
Sister, what happened to you, why blood is coming out from your ears? Ava asked
Listen to me!! Probably I will not recover, please take care of my heartily Lucas, please take him to your home. The Benjamin family is so harsh. My son lacks sympathy and affection. Tell daddy that her daughter loves her so much. Please Ava Please....!! Olivia was begging her sister. Meanwhile, her eyes closed, her body got flexible and her hands got down with jerks.
Olivia Olivia…!!!! Open your eyes!! You cannot meet me like this after ages. We need to talk..!!! We need to spend time…!!! We will go to dad and will bond happily… please my dearest sister!! Open your eyes!! I cannot live without you… Lucas will not live without you!!! Ava shouted. Suddenly the doctor came and asked Ava to leave the room. The doctor checked through the defibrillator to resume the normal rhythm of her irregular heartbeat. But remained to fail to recover her. A doctor came outside the room and said to Ava;
"Patient is no more, I am so sorry for your loss".
A nurse came to her by handing over Olivia's necklace and wristwatch in a plastic bag and said;
Take these off your sister's belongings and kindly go to the accountant's office and clear all dues, so we may hand over to you the dead body. She felt for a moment, that it was an earthquake.
At that moment a man came and asked the doctor about Olivia, and the doctor told him the same as that man.
Both Ava and that man moved towards the accounting office. Ava was losing her potential while walking toward the accountant's office. She stopped for a moment and stand with the wall. She felt that everything is moving.
Excuse me, miss! Are you okay? The man asked Ava. He realized that girl is getting faint so he managed to give her juice from the canteen. Ava took some sips and said to that man
Thank you for your help!
The man nodded his head and both reached the accountant counter.
How much dues for patient Olivia Benjamin? Both asked the accountant same time.
Who are you to pay my sister's dues? Ava asked that man.
My name is Frank Albert, I am personal secretary to Mr Leonardo Benjamin and I have to pay the dues. He grants me duties. Kindly be patient, Frank said.
But..!!! Ava said
No buts..!!! It is my duty, my boss will get angry with me and I cannot disobey him. He replied and gave the card to the accountant for dues clearance.
