Slap!

Ava's POV
I got into the bathroom to shower. After spending about thirty minutes of bathing, I wanted to spend more time under the shower to cool off and cry more.
The ugly scene kept on replaying in my head. I couldn't help but scream inside my head.
As I got out of the bathroom, I heard a knock on the door. I had to get dressed before checking who was at the door, so that I wouldn't get embarrassed again.
I rushed to the door to see who the hell was there only to meet a second huge embarrassment.
“You brat, I sent someone here to call you but you refused to open the door. Are you that shameless?” she yelled.
“I….iii was in the bathroom, and that was the reason I couldn't open the door so fast.” I stuttered badly.
Lisa pushed me and walked into the room. I wondered what she wanted this time. I was sick and tired of them all.
I stood there quietly as she stared around the room and finally settled on the bed.
“Just get your ass here. I want to explore. I want to check your virginity and also know if you are pregnant.” She ordered with a faint smirk.
I gasped.
‘What? Is she stupid?’ I thought.
Each day I stayed in this house, there are always things the family does to offend me.
“You aren't deaf right? Come here now?” Lisa asked.
“Please, Miss, I really don't understand what you said earlier,” I said angrily.
“What the hell can you not understand?” she added. “My brother told me he hasn't touched you yet and I also heard you are a slut who had so many boyfriends. I need to check if my brother is safe with you.”
“What? Are you a doctor now?” I muttered, trying to put myself in order.
“You have no right to ask me that, just do as I say.” she yelled.
There was definitely gonna be a dispute because I was not going to lay down for her to check me.
I stared at her, thinking of how to unleash my anger by kicking her out. But whenever I tried to speak, nothing came out.
Just then, her phone rang, she picked it up and answered. Then stared at me.
“You are so lucky! I will leave you and focus on someone important. I will be back for you, definitely!” she smirked at me and left immediately.
I watched Lisa as she held her phone on her right ear side, talking to someone as she left me standing there. I breathed a sigh of relief.
I stood at the door, thinking of what to do. She was one of my biggest problems.
“Ava!” I heard a voice call me, and I flinched.
“L–Logan!” I stuttered.
“Yes, what are you staring at so lost?” he asked but that wasn't his business.
I don't know why I keep seeing him.
“What do you want?” I frowned, irritation rising inside me.
Why is he always coming to me?
He didn’t answer. He just stepped closer.
Instinctively, I stepped back.
“What is the matter?” I asked. “Why are you here?”
A faint smirk appeared on his lips as he moved even closer, pushing me into the room.
“Why do you always look so scared?” he said.
Before I could react, his hand slammed against the wall beside me.
I froze.
My back hit the wall, trapping me between him and the door.
“Stay away from me,” I said, my voice firm despite the pounding in my chest.
He leaned closer, ignoring me.
“I told you… you don’t have to keep suffering like this,” he murmured.
My stomach tightened.
“Your husband doesn’t care about you,” he continued. “To him, you’re nothing… just a burden.”
My hands clenched at my sides.
“He has other women,” Logan added, his voice low and convincing. “Women are better than you.”
His hand moved toward my waist.
“I’m the only one who can take care of you,” he whispered. “You should come to me.”
His other hand was already on my cheek.
“Your sick husband has gone out with his mum for his medication. Now we have enough time together. Let's–”
Before he could finish–
SLAP!
The sound echoed sharply.
My palm connected solidly with his face, the sound echoing through the room.
Logan staggered slightly, holding his cheek, staring at me like he couldn’t believe it.
“You… slapped me?” he said.
My chest rose and fell, but this time, I wasn’t shaking.
“Yes,” I said, my voice steady. “And I will do it again.”
His expression darkened. “How dare you raise your filthy hands on me? You smelling b***h!”
“You caused it. I am married to your brother, not you. You have no right touching or coming close to me.”
Logan's POV
“Wow, that was really fast.” I said, after realising that she couldn't be easily convinced.
I just needed to soften my mood. Though I hate the fact I got slapped by her. I am willing to try again.
I was only going to help her escape my family's cruelty but I think she loves it. She even slapped me. She really thinks she can reject me? No woman has ever done that before.
“But anyway, I will keep trying until you come begging me. You can't enjoy my brother more than you would with me.”
“Please leave the room,” she said angrily.
“Ok!” I said with a smile on my face.
That was my last word, as I left the room.
“Logan! What are you doing in Ava's room?” I heard my sister's voice, Lisa and I flinched.
“I-i forgot something there,” I muttered. “Though I didn't see it.”
I wished I didn't see her.
“Really,” she said with a faint smile. “You now keep things there? You and I know what you are looking for.”
“I told you what I was there for. No further questions please excuse.” I said angrily.
Lisa was always acting so bossy. I hated her as my sister.
“I will tell Michael what you are doing,” she yelled as her voice echoed through the corridor.
