chapter 9

Aria's Point Of View,

Mary was still looking at me with wide eyes, as she was feeling like it was a dream while it was not, I am here for her and I am gonna help her out.

"I always wanted to take arts and read literature and I wanna be a lecturer", Mary told me and I just looked at her with wide eyes, I do not believe that we both think the same, I always wanted to read literature and we could make the best pair, oh god I am so excited and happy, I am glad that I do not need to find any new friend in the college.

"You can not be serious, I mean how could we both think the same, I mean I always wanted to study about literature, but I do not want to be a lecturer, but I still took literature as my special subject, it would be so fun to read it with you, oh Mary, you do not know how happy you made me", I said to her and hugged her tight.

"Do you still think that I would be able to go to college", she asked me and I instantly nodded my head.

"Of course, you would Mary, I will make sure it for you that you will be able to go there with me, we will go to the same college and I will make it possible no matter what, you just choose your subject and get ready your all school documents and all mark sheets, I will need them soon, first I need to talk to dad and grandma about this and you will see that I am gonna give you a new life", I said to her and I saw how her eyes shined.

"I am so scared Aria, you are just filling new dreams into my life, those dreams were my life just a few times ago but I have to kill them coz they were hurting me so badly, I accepted this life and now you are showing me new dreams and my heart is flying again, but trust me, I do not want to get hurt again, I do not want to cry again, it hurts so much", she said and I slowly cupped her face.

"Do you trust me Mary", I asked her and she instantly nodded her head in yes.

"Then do not worry, I will not let you get down, I promise, that I will not get you hurt again, I will fulfil all your dreams, you will live a life you ever wished, I will try my best to give you what you deserve Mary, just have faith on me, and do what I say, I will make sure that you will not cry again in this life", I said and she just pulled me into a hug and cried on my shoulder, I did not say anything to her, she must have felt so suffocated all these months, why grandma does not know about this, this is so fucking wrong and I am not gonna spare my mom for this, how could she ruin a kid's future like this.

"Now go and get some rest, we have a lot of work to do, and also I will need your help with my new work, so now you have to help me as you are my best friend now", I said to her and she just did not believe what I said.

"Am I really your best friend, you are not joking right", she asked me and I just placed a small kiss on her head as a sister.

"Why would I joke Mary, I really mean every single word I say, so do not ever take my words as a joke", I said and she just forced a smile on me and I passed her a warm smile.

"But there is still a problem Aria, if your mom will know about this, she will punish me, she wants me to finish all the work at home and if I do not do this, she punishes me, and I am so scared of her punishments", she said and I just looked at her with confused eyes.

"What she does to you, tell me right now", I asked her and she started looking down, she was so worried and I could see fear in her eyes, gosh, she was really looking scared out of hell.

"She beats me and it hurts so much", she said and my eyes just got wet to hear this, I know my mom was so rude, but I never thought that she could go to this extent, how the hell she could do this to her, that is so fucking unfair, that is a crime, I am gonna file a police complaint of molesting a girl, I am fucking feeling so bad for her, how did she survive this, poor girl, I just wiped her face and kissed her cheeks.

"Do not worry, no one will dare to touch you when I am here with you, you do not need to get scared of anyone now, I will take care of everything now and also from now you will stay in my room, I will make arrangements for you, one more bed and Almira, everything, so from now, you are my responsibility and I will see who will dare to touch you in front of me", I said and she just hugged me tight, I could still feel that her body was shivering so badly.

Gosh, God knows what the hell mom has done to her, she lost her charm due to fear, now she has to pay for this, I will make sure this.
