PopularNovel101 Ava’s Fear
Scarlett’s POV
| don’t think she is going to like what Ava has to say.
| was surprised that Jack Fuller seemed to know Ava’s true color, but not for long. He has always been a
calculating fox and | doubt he’d let anyone fool him, not even his own daughter.
But I don’t think Mom knows about it at all. If she thinks Ava is her angelic tdaughter, then she really
believes that. She is a devout bellever. And as horrible as Jack Fuller might be, there is one thing | can’t deny of
him - he loves his wife.
| guess | shouldn't feel bad for Mom. | should envy her. She might know all the truth, but she is happy, living in
the little illusional bubble where everything is kind, good, and alright. She doesn’t have to feel bad for keeping a
little girl at hjust to be her daughter's blood vessel because her husband told her the little girl is an orphan
who needed help; she doesn’t have to know that her own daughter broke the ugly truth to the orphan that she
was adopted, because Jack Fuller determined it was an accident no matter what | said; she doesn’t have to feel
bad for trappinghere as a prisoner, because maybe not as much as she loves Ava, she also “cares” about
me, and that makes what she did a desperate try of a mother to keep all her kids around her.
Nothing evil.
Her kindness hurtthe most when the ugly truth cout. | was devastated to realize that no one in the
family ever loved me, and yet | couldn't say a harsh thing to this innocent woman. Sometimes | wonder which is
cruler-right out evil, or self-tricking lies.
At least against the former, | could try to defend myself. But fake love? You wouldn't know how deep you sank
before you are suffocated.

excitement.and Ava getting along has been one of her biggest wishes for years, and today she sees the first
glimpse of hope for that.
“Jack!” Mom puts down the apple on the table, waiting for her husband by the door with a pout. Jack Fuller
moves his legs reluctantly, and when passing between Ava andhe says-
“Be nice to your sister.”
He doesn’t say who he is talking to, and he looks at neither of us.
The room falls into silence. Ava is not talking long after they left. That's her habit in case anyone hears. her. | sit
down on the chair far away from her, close to the door. There is no telling what Ava would do when we are alone,
and | learned to protect myself.
“So where's your apology? I'm listening,” | lean my chair backward on the wall, its two front legs in the air. This
way | can see the Fullers in the hallway. Jack Fuller hands Mom a cup of hot coffee.
“If you are trying to getto say something bad-" Ava glares at me, her tone cold and vicious.
“They are coming,” | glance at Ava and she instantly bites her lips. She knows how unlikely that is, but still,
she dares not to risk it.

“Does it ever tire you? To play a role ALL your life?” | shake my head, taunting her coldly. | can’t imagine doing
something like that. It's exhausting. Maybe that’s why she is so mean and nasty in front of- she needs an
outlet of her true self, and to whom better than the adopted sister who nobody cares or would
believe?
“Open the door!” Ava demands. | snort coldly, enlarging the gap so Ava could also see her parents. The fullers
look over atwith slight confusion, but remembering where they are, Mom sends over an encouraging smile,
and Jack Fuller looks away from me.
He has always looked atthat way since | was too young to understand any of that. It's a hatred rooted deep
in his heart, fear even. But | don’t know what on earth could get him, a rich, powerful, decisive man to hate or
fear a little girl who only recognized him as her own father.
