Hmm, so you want such like this?
- both of /ro/fileA and /rw/fileA exist.
- /aufs/fileA exists too.

$ rm /aufs/fileA
$ cat /aufs/fileA

and "cat" shows /ro/fileA.
If so, that is not normal fs behaviour, and I don't know why you want
such behaviour.

Instead of aufs, you may want try "mount --bind fileA" and then unmount
it. It may be possible if you develop something based on FUSE. But I
don't think it is a good idea.
