Chapter 32 - CURIOSITY

Hello aunt. How are you? Are you okay you call this time? Ava was combing her hair. She put the call on the speaker.

Yes my dear I called to ask about Lucas's uncle's health. I was going home from the market. He insisted me sit in the car and he dropped me home. Mrs Jasmine said

He is doing better. Ava said. She didn't notice that Leonardo knocked on the door and opened it as she turned towards the window.

You were right, he is a very polite and very nice guy. You two are similar to each other. But there is a difference. Your goodness is visible and his one is hidden. Mrs Jasmine said

I don't know about mine. But he is exactly the person you told. Ava said.

That's really great. And nice of him. I don't know what will happen, but you two are suitable for each other. It seems like you both are made for each other as I saw you taking care of yourself and he took yours.

No Aunt! What are you saying…? He is just like Lucas's uncle to me. There is nothing in between us. Com... Come on ... it's too late to talk. Good night.

Okay, take care of yourself. Good night. Mrs Jasmine said. She dropped the phone call and turned around she found Leonardo standing there.

How is that? Have you been listening to everything? Ava silently mumbled

I ... I … thought you could have knocked on the door.

No, I just knocked on the door. Here is your book. you left it in my room. so I thought to return it. Leonardo changed the direction and said.

Do you want to say something? Or want to tell me something? Ava asked to clarify whether he listened to the conversation or not.

Why do you think so? Leonardo asked

You looked at me like you wanted to say something. Ava said

Did I do that? Leonardo asked

I don't know. Maybe I felt that way. Ava said and laughed a bit.

Okay, I was going to sleep. Good night. Ava sat on the bed so Leonardo may go out of his room.

He went out of her room by thinking about their conversation. He closed the door of Ava's room. He smiled and went into his room. As he left Ava's room. Ava quickly pour some water into a glass and drank for a second.

What if he heard it? How I will ever look at his face again? Ava talked to herself. She was anxious about happening.

That night was special, both were thinking of each other in their rooms. They had different feelings for each other. Both were reminding each other of the good work they did for each other. Ava took the Infinity wood and looked at that. She put it back in the drawer and fell asleep. The next day, she woke up. She was anxious. She was still thinking if Leonardo could have listened to her conversation with Mrs Jasmine. She went out of her room. She looked around and quickly went downstairs. Leonardo was coming upstairs. She jammed on the stairs with fear. But she tried to manage herself calm in front of him.

Do you want to tell me something? Leonardo asked

No... I don't. Ava said

Are you sure? Leonardo asked looking into her eyes

Yes, I am. I was not going to tell you anything. Ava said.

I will ask you something. Leonardo said

About? Ava asked. She got more anxious than before.

Jasmine aunt. Leonardo said

What you are going to ask? Ava asked. Her hands started shivering.

What do you think? Leonardo asked

I don't know... Ava said

Are you okay? Leonardo asked

Yes, I am. Ava looked at him and quickly went downstairs.

Leonardo looked at her and smiled.

Lucas and Ava were having their lunch in the kitchen. Leonardo came. Ava was unable to leave the site as Lucas was eating. Leonardo sat with them and started eating with them.

How is your aunt? Leonardo asked

She… she is fine. Ava said hesitantly

You are lucky to have such an aunt. She is wise and she is the right seer. She is trustworthy. She knows you well. Leonardo said

He might listen to our conversation that's why he is acting like this way. Ava coughed while drinking water. She thought and doubted as Leonardo said.

She is. Ava said.

Uncle do you know my aunt taught me a poem? Will you listen? Lucas asked

Yes. I will. Your aunt also taught me some good words. Leonardo said looking at Ava.

Did she teach you a poem? Lucas asked

It was like a poem. Leonardo said

Did you memorise yourself? Can you tell me? Lucas asked.

I will.

"We are becoming similar to each other as time goes on"

"It's as if everything I said will never happen is brewing in her"

"We are two that trying to be one, I see that time"

"I wonder, the love that people say it that it?"

"Does it mean to become whole pieces?"

"Does it mean to flow past in one-piece body?"

Leonardo told him while looking at Ava all the time.

I understood but not completely. Are you saying the love between the giant and the princess in the fairy tale? Lucas asked

I think your aunt can explain it to you better. Am I right? Leonardo asked Ava.

She couldn't answer him. She looked around.

Look dear your lunch is finished let us go to your room. Ava took Lucas and went into her room. No one was known that burning Emma listened to Leonardo. She knew that Leonardo said words for Ava. She turned inside out and quickly went to Ava's room. She was about to throw all stuff from the dressing table when Sophia came inside and hold her hand.

Calm down. Learn to be calm. Sophia got angry with her.

Let me, sister. Don't stop me. Emma shouted

I feel you well but I tell you, there is very little left. You must have patience. This is very little left otherwise you will lose due to your anger and frustration. Sophia made her understand the condition.

I don't want to be calm. I can't bear it anymore. Get your hands off me. Emma shouted.

Get out of this room. Sophia dragged her out of Ava's room.

Leonardo went into his room. He was wondering about Ava

"Why do her eyes broaden up while she looks at me?" he thought. He called Watson

Ask Lucas's aunt to come into my room I need to talk to her. If she says I am busy then tell her I am waiting. Leonardo said

Ms Ava, are you free? Watson asked

Yes, I am. Tell me what I can do for you. Ava asked

Mr Leonardo is waiting for you. Watson said.

I… actually… okay I will go… Ava said as she didn't want to confront Leonardo

So why did you call me? Ava asked

It is about what I heard. I was thinking of delaying it for later but it is better to talk now. Leonardo said. Ava thought he was about to discuss the conversation. She started looking around.

What do you mean by those things you heard? What are you talking about? Ava asked

Not the things I heard. There are also things that I read. Leonardo said

What things do you read? Ava questioned

Yes. Leonardo tried to make her puzzle so he can see her anxiousness about that concern.

Both things I heard from mothers and the things I read on the websites. Above all, it is clear that Lucas is needed to go to kindergarten. What do you think about it? Should we send him to school? Leonardo asked

Ava took a deep breath. "Thank god, I was thinking wrong," she thought.

You are right but this season schools already have started. She said

Leonardo took the tablet in his hand and stood with Ava. Ava was feeling something by his touch.

Check I have to find out schools for him. Let us go through it all. Leonardo said

Okay, I can do it myself. I will go to my room and I will check, then I will inform you. Ava couldn't stop there. She snatched the tablet from his hand and ran out of his room

Run away now. Let's see how long will you keep running. Leonardo mumbled when Ava ran out of his room.

Ava went into her room with a smiling face. She found Emma standing there.

I have seen you in his shadow, you are always with him. I know well what you are trying to do! Emma shouted

What are you talking about? Ava asked anxiously

You are a gold digger. Lucas has been a very good excuse for you. You cheat on Leonardo by acting like a good aunt. You influence him with your innocence. You can do everything to get rid of that slum and live here. Right? You couldn't say because I am right. Emma asked

Emma…

Ms Ava, officials from social services have come. They want to see you. Watson interrupted

Ava started shivering with anger and fear together. Meanwhile, Leonardo also came out by learning the news. He wondered about who can report her. Whereas it was a secret between him and Ava. Emma was happy as she believed Ava will be going now from the mansion as Sophia told her. She thought that her words effectively worked in time for Ava. She went to Sophia's room to tell her the situation and go downstairs together to see the bad happenings with Ava. Whereas she was not known that Sophia was getting informed by his agent by every second. She already knew that the officers were coming to the mansion.
