Chapter-3

...At police station...

"I know it might be difficult for you guys to answer but we still need you to co-operate with us ... And ...is it true that you were being abused by your ...Ah! Don't worry we are just trying to help you guys , we will make sure that you don't have to suffer anymore ... So please"

"Yes they did abuse us " Ethane interrupted.

" Boy! Please do not hesitate to tell , tell whatever you know " said the officer .

" ...My parents got in an accident and it was them who took me in ,I was grateful to them untill I found myself trapped between those F**CKING!". "I'm sorry"

"It's seems more like a traumatic experience for you than to have someone taking care"

"Hmmm ,I guess they never likes you at the first place , did they hate your parents for some reasons or something like that "

...(They officer was continuing to say but got interrupted by Aunt Eva)...

"Pardon me for my rudeness but , do you think a 17 year old kid who lost his parents at 14 would know !"

...Silence...

" I know" Aunt Eva continued"but I feel it's hard for "

"Aunt Eva , I know you care about us , but yeah I never knew the reason but they were always rude to me ...to be honest I first felt that it has mistaken them , because they were the one to take me in ... It wasn't you aunt !"

"HEY!! Because you don't know what actually happened, don't blame others , OKAY !

DID YOU EVEN TRIED TO KNOW WHAT ACTUALLY HAPPENED!"

"LEE, okay Ethane let me tell you what actually happened , you don't even remember me being on that trip, DO YOU !"

...Silence...

" ...It wasn't a single car who got in the accident"

"WHAT" Ethane yelled .

"Why was it only me who didn't know this! "

"Why do you think, tell me , we didn't want you to suffer more " said Lee.

" And there it was me " Ethane was saying

" But you still trusted her , isn't it " Lee interrupted .

"Umm! If you guys don't mind may I ask you something" the officer said while scratching his head .

"Sir, I need to tell you something , everyday evening they would ask us to go out , as if they were allowing us to enjoy , it has been about two months since that happening , at first we were amazed and even terrified but gradually it became normal . One day out of curiosity we checked what was actually the matter and we found them act like they were drunk , and that's was the time we were planning to get our stuff at Aunt Eva's and leave thia house with her help but that drunkenness of them made us leave that house at that moment only... but it wasn't that easy .

Aunt Eva didn't know about us moving our stuff , the place where we were moving was that big gaming room for both of us which was quite a big room near her house so that was the place we both decided and after that we would ask aunt to help us ..."

It took us about two weeks for us to shift as Aunt's house was at a distance of half hour approximately using bicycle , after we got our stuff we went to aunt for a week with the excuse to meet her and tried to tell her about all those and asked her to let us stay there but just two days later , yesterday when we returned the house was on fire ..." Lee stoped .

" I guess you guys should go and rest , these days are hard for you and this information is more than enough for us.

Thank you for your cooperation ."officer said.

" Thank you " everyone said while bowing a little .

...Ethane, Lee and Aunt Eva left the police station...

" Is this case that simple as it looks, sir." said another officer .

" Ofcourse not , we don't know when we might get surprised so be always ready for that , Medea " said Alvis , the officer .
