Y/n pov

I'm currently in the kitchen literally staring at my phone waiting for it to ring hoping my thoughts were right... I would call her but all i can remember is there's one 9 and an 8 on her number and that's all i got

"C'mon....please.." i sighs hiding my face on the nook

It rang.....every drop of blood in my body jumped that i almost dropped my phone from panicking but turns out it's just kevin feige "hmm... Maybe later. I never liked you anyways, killing my wives just like that" i huffed letting it ring not answering it

My attention was then caught by agnes coming inside from school. We agreed that she's gonna have her own driver since i really don't want her to get linked to me just because of paparazzi pics. I need to settle everything for a while and keep her safe first.

"Heyyy, how was it??" I smiled watching her skip her way leaving her bag on the couch before going to me

"It was funnn...look, i have a lot of stars!" She proudly Stated showing both her wrists

"Awww...great job then! You wanna go for some donuts?"

"Maybe next time, I'm kinda exhausted" she sighs sitting beside me while i stood up to go get her some water

"you ok? "

" Yeahh, there's just this girl in school... She's annoying" she huffed

"what do you mean? "

" She's pretty, she's smart, everyone has a crush on her " she stated still in the same expression

"ok.. look, you're pretty and you're smart.. other's success isn't your failure. I mean y'know maybe be friends with her? Maybe you have something in common with her.. best friends sometimes starts coz one of them hat the other one at first" i shrugged watching her drink the water

"hmmm yeah.. maybe.. I'll think about it"

" What's her name? "

" Thy... Like tea? Cup of tea? But with h.. like thy" she tries explaining it

"that's a weird name" i chuckled

" It's a nickname, i forgot her whole name it's too long"

" That's what she said.." i mumbled to myself laughing can't stop my intrusive thoughts

" huh? "

"Nothing , I said change already and don't forget your backpack" i shook my Head still chuckling

She goes upstairs groaning.. she finds th. Stairs annoying coz it's kind of a lot of steps.. when i mean kind of, i meant 30 something steps

I'm still checking my phone and nothing has changed "ok, I'm not gonna drink iced coffee for a mont- a WEEK if you call.. or even just a text. Come on Scarlett Johanssonn" i groaned

Something then popped in my mind.. putting all these in 2 Senses." It's either.. its wasn't her..a-and.. the uhm.. worst t-thing possible happened back in that country again.. or.. she... Hates my guts and don't wanna see me anymore for leaving her.." i sigh to myself already drained and devastated

"just one call, scar...i...i Just wanna hear your voice...then I won't bother you anymore. Just let me know you're here" i took a deep breath swallowing thickly

Koko suddenly goes to me waking up from a nap. I quickly picked him up as he rested his head on my chest " i miss her too, Kornelius" i hugged him tighter

Scarlett pov

I'm in the kitchen staring at my phone anxiously with the number already typed and all i need do to is press a damn button but it's killing me thinking about the consequences this one last press could make

"Ok...oh god.. oh my god.. uhhhh i hate this" i shaked my head can't do it

"Come onn you'll get your life back just call her. Who cares if she left that other slightly better looking Scarlet? Oh.. the kid.. damn.. FUCKKK" i groaned already stressed out with all these

"Mommy? I'm homee" Rose suddenly came in giving me a kiss

"Hi sweetie, how's School?" I asked smiling hiding my anxiety away

"it was funn, i have a new classmate and i think she hates me but that's fine im still the class muse" she casually says smiling confidently at the end of her Sentence actually making me feel so much better

"why would you think she hates you? What's her name? " I laughed

" Agnes..i think she's threatened by me" she suddenly says..

" A-Agnes? " I nervous chuckled..please tell me she's not who i think she is...

"Yes, mommy"

"W-Wha- uhm.. w-what does she uhm looks like?"

"Uhh smaller than me, black hair, wear glasses and yeah she has dimples" she shrugged

Oh god....

WHAT IF Y/n SEE'S ROSE AT THAT SCHOOL, ASK ABOUT ME AND  IF ROSE SAYS I'M FINE SHE'S GONNA THINK I DON'T WANNA SEE HER BECAUSE I DIDN'T CALL. WHAT AM I GONNA DO????

"mommy? Are.. you ok?" Rose hesitantly asked while I'm having a full on panic attack

"H-huh? Yeah.. o-of course.. why wouldn't i be?" I asked still hiding it. "Ok.. I'll just go upstairs and change" she awkwardly responded

As soon as she got upstairs i literally chug a whole glass of cold water to actually start breathing coz right now i don't even know if my heart is gonna explode.

To me it seems like it's either I'd be the villain or I'd be the hero who gave their way...

"Ok.. if I'm nat.. what would i do?" I asked myself to think deeply. Yes, i do this when I don't know what to do anymore

"PEANUT BUTTER AND JELLY TO THINK" i nodded running to my pantry getting some making a sandwich

As i took a bite my Neurons started working "i got it" i huffed.. " i don't need to call her..if we're really for each other.. I'm pretty sure the universe will do its way to make us see each other again... Yeah.. YEAH THAT'S IT--but what if this call is the way and I'm dodging it?? Uhhhhhh" i literally just dropped my head sobbing in annoyance at the counter

I stood up fixing myself and just grabbed my phone looking at the paparazzi pictures of y/n and that kid "I don't wanna ruin those smiles" i sigh to myself seeing this picture of them smiling at each other

"Oh y/n... why are you doing this to M--HOLD ON A MINUTE.. IS THAT A RING???? MORE IMPORTANTLY, HOW COULD YOU DO THIS TO ME!???" i scoffed zooming it in seeing the ring isn't even real silver coz of some stains

"YOU SETTLED FOR A GLASS RING WHEN I GOT YOU A DIAMOND ONE??? OH COME ON"

"AND YOU WANT ME TO CALL YOU EVEN IF YOU'RE ENGAGED TO SOMEONE ELSE?? WHAT KIND OF A GAME IS THIS TO YOU??! I DON'T WANNA BE A MISTRESS. I'M HERE FEELING SO GUILTY AND YOU'RE HERE MESSING AROUND" i Furiously says arguing with my phone looking at her picture

My anger then dropped with my Expression while it started sinking in to me.. "she's engaged...with someone else" i mumbled.. feeling my chest getting heavier as i stared at the ring she got me when i was unconscious..
