The Living dream

Chapter Eight

                                                                                    3 Months later

Ava had ripped out multiple chunks of hair over the time period, she had broken off her ear. Ava was psychotic to say the least. The soothing voice was Ava's babysitter, Nico. She had jet black hair and deep brown eyes that could lull any worry away. She had a tanish complexion with high cheekbones and shorter lashes. She would disappear to the kitchen and make a huge meal for Liciene, Ava and her so they could all eat together and then she'd go home in her grey jeep. This gave time for Clara to continue her plan to make Ava into Emily. Clara didn't like Ava anymore. Sometimes Ava was nice but most times she was extremely violent towards the doll.

It was still rather cold where Ava lived. It never was too warm but never too cold. Today Liciene had to leave early for work so he kissed his granddaughter goodbye and left her with Clara and Nico. Ava was playing with her barbie dolls facing towards the window. She was wearing pink fluffy pants with grey cats on them, her shirt was also fluffy and pink but it had brown dogs. Clara stretched her arms and slowly creaked to life. Slowly stalking her way over to little Ava. Ava started to turn around, Clara freaked out and shrunk back to the size of a doll and was once again made of porcelain but now she was close to Ava and not feet away.

Ava looked at Clara and laughed, "Hi dolly! You're coming with me Dolly!"

Clara wasn't a fan of that sentence coming out of the brunette's mouth. Ava never truly talked to her and it scared Clara when she did. The brunette picked up the doll and walked out of the pale green room skipping down the oak floor hallway. Ava stopped for a minute and waved at Nico.

Nico smiled and waved back, walking back to the kitchen. Ava continued skipping turning to the right continuing down a new hallway. She turned left into the bathroom shutting the door, setting the ginger doll on the sink and started the bathtub. Ava hummed to herself as she continued to watch the bath water rise, she stood up and picked up Clara dropping her into the tub letting her sink as the tub kept filling, then Ava turned the water off. Pushing Clara's face under water she let the water fill the dolls face from the holes in the scalp, face and ear. Ava laughed leaving the doll under the water.

Clara couldn't breathe. She was struggling. Clara was very much a living person not a doll. It hurt, Clara didn't want this. Ava pulled the doll out and smiled sickly.

"Dolly, You were bad you need to be punished dolly." Ava sweetly muttered.

Ava smiled opening the door, skipping out of the dreary bathroom. Claras black dress was drenched ripping at the seams, water pouring out of her ear and the very few pieces of hair left on her head were soaked and were falling out of the foleckles. One of her eyes was shattered. Ava continued her way to the room. Setting the doll down she walked back out for dinner with Nico and Liciene leaving Clara alone.
