Life of lies

Chapter 36 - Twisted

Elisa/Nora's POV

Thankfully, I was allowed to go see my grandmother, even though I was on handcuffs,I didn't care.

When I got into the room she was in, my heart dropped.
All these scary machines connected to her body....

"Grandma" I whimper as I run towards her.

"Grandma, it's me, Elisa, I'm here now, please wake up" I smile as I take hold of her hand. Her cold hand.

"Granny, it's Elisa. Grandma please don't leave me. You are a strong woman, I know you can do this" I gently squeeze her hand.

"You are the only family I have left, please stay with me, okay?".
She doesn't even move any part of her body, she just lays limp.

~~~~

I gently close the door as I walk out of the room.
I turn around, only to meet the Greg eyes of Aria.

"What did you do to my grandmother?" I glare at her.

"I didn't do anything, we were just talking and then she-"

She should be lucky I'm handcuffed, else, I would have slapped her across the cheek. Nevertheless, I managed to push her forcefully, before the police men surrounded me.

"If anything happens to my grandma I will hold you responsible Aria! Mark My Words!" I yell, before shoving the police men off of me.

"I'm not causing any trouble. Let go of me"

Aria's POV

God please, let nothing happen to Ma'am Trinidad. Please preserve her life--

"Oh!" Someone interrupts me. "You are praying? You should! Because this is all your fault" Elisa spat.
I've taken enough of her. If she thinks she can just talk bad of me to my face, then she's so wrong.

"Elisa what's your problem? Why are you bent on accusing me of what you know nothing about?! Everything that happened was an accident. I didn't mean for it to happen. In fact, I had already finished my discussion with your grandma before she had an attack. So you better get the idea that this is all my fault out of your head!" I glare at her, as I shove her from my way.

Elisa/Nora's POV

"Please ma'am, I need to go see my grandmother today, please" I hit the bars.

"You caused trouble the other day, what makes you think I'll let you see her today again? Stay there and be quiet!" She bites back.

"But ma, how do you expect me to be quiet when my grandmother is in the hospital and I have absolutely no idea on what is happening to her? I promise I won't cause trouble today! Please! I beg you."

She eyes me for a minute before shaking her head.
"No, I can't let that happen. I can't trust you that you won't cause trouble"

"Please ma'am, you also have a family too right? Please just let me see my grandmother. She's the only family I have left. Please, I...I'm begging you" o sob.

The lady looks at me, pity flashing in her eyes, before she sighs, at that moment I knew I'd won.

Aria's POV

"Aria, what happened" Riley asks as she takes a seat beside me, Layla and Everly sat on the other side of the chair.

"It's Elisa's Grandma, she later came to the wedding reception, she wanted to talk, so I excused us and we went to a quiet place. We had finished talking and I was about leaving, when I found her struggling to breathe or something-"
