"Where, where the fuck is she? Where the fuck is Sumana"
"Sumana, honey, she'll come back, why, why are you acting all weird, are you tired?"
"Yea, Dada!"
"Honey, look at me, she's gonna be fine."
Nisha, grabs me by my shoulders, and she reassures me everythings gonna be okay.
I slap her.
"My daughters out there and you want me to fucking sleep? How the fuck could i sleep? Can you sleep? What kind of fucking mother are you?"
i raise my tone as i raise my hand again and just when im about to slap Nisha again, Meera grabs my other hand.
"Dada, please, please dont hit mommy"
I look down at her, as she holds her tears back. I sit down close to her and wipe those tears off her face.
"Meera, lets go look for her okay?"
"Yes, Dada."
"Nisha, you?"
I reach out my hand to her
"Of course my love."
I grab both their hands, get up and we go outside.
"Vikram, you, you got a c-car? Fully functioning?"
"Yea, yea i stole it."
"Lets go look for her in this Mama, Dada"
As we approach the car, Armando and Matilda get out and raise their guns.
"Dont move"
"Where's the other daughter you liar?"
Nisha and Meena stop and raise ther hand up.
I speak up
"She's, she's not here."
Nisha and Meera both look at me, Nisha completely understanding whats going on, she gives me a look thats basically saying "How could you?", she's horrifed and terrified.
"Dada, please protect us"
Meera grabs my hand even tighter and leans behind me.
"The fuck you mean she's not here?"
"You heard me, she went out looking for me, please spare me"
"Like we'd believe such a stupid lie, Armando go look in that house"
Armando goes to look for her in the house as now Matilda keeps looking at us, two guns in her hands. Nisha doesnt hesitate and asks
"What, whats gonna happen to us?"
Matilda ignores her. Nisha lets go of me and starts to walk to Matilda
"Please, please spare my daughters, if you're gonna kill us, kill me and him"
"Miss, Stay back."
Matilda warns Nisha and loads up one of her guns.
Nisha doesn't stop.
"Please, please, please oh i beg you spare atleast my daughters, please"
"One step closer and i'll kill you"
"Nisha stop!"
I scream that out but it has no avail,Nisha keeps getting closer to her.
Bang
Matilda shoots her in the leg and nisha falls to her knees.
"Look, one step closer and death wont be the only thing facing your daughters, far worse."
Nisha yelps on the ground and starts to beg.
"Please, just my daughters, spare them, spare them oh god."
She starts hurting, crying and bleeding but she still manages to beg, staying in that begging position.
Armando then leaves the house.
"No one's inside there."
"Fine, then we'll leave with these three"
"The fuck happend?"
"Nothing, tie them up and throw the little one in the back"
"Why do i have to do it?"
"You just have to."
Matilda gets inside the car and waits for Armando to do all the heavy work.
"From what i make of this situation, seems like she's the man in the relationship."
Afterwards i get punched in my gut, which leaves me on the ground, gasping for air. He keeps kicking me.
**SUMANA POV**
"Sumana, Sumana"
I wake up to my mom whispering my name quietly grabbing my shoulders and shaking me
"What mom, did dad come bac-"
She puts her finger to her nose, signaling me to be quiet, she seems stressed, no, more like terrified.
"Mom, what the fuck are you-"
"Listen Sumana, please listen to me, just this once"
I nod
"What, what is it?"
Me and her, well our relationship is not the best, i get along with dad more but she is acting awfully weird, she's never like this, its super concerning so i'll comply.
"Please, hide, find a place to hide, anywhere, just hide somewhere where you wont be found out."
"Mom, thats childish, why-"
She closes my mouth and interrupts me for the 3rd time, this is serious, she means it.
"Please Sumana, you'll die if you dont."
My heart stops beating for a second, what is going on. What is she saying, has she gone crazy? Is this a nightmare of some sort? Whats going o-
She slaps me back to reality and whispers to me with tears in her eyes.
"Hide."
The moment she says that, i hear the door open and hear the sound of dad saying
"Im Home!"
