The Story Of Us

Bond

Y/n's POV:

"Please, Mommy?" My daughter started looking up at me with puppy eyes while pouting her cute little pink plump lips.

She's been begging me since last night to come with them, Scarlett had mentioned to me that they're gonna go to the Central Park and she'll show Avery the statue of liberty.

"Me and Scarly really want you to join us, please Mommy, just this one time..." She held up her point finger to me, while looking at it to make sure that she did the right number of her finger.

I already checked my schedule when I woke up, and I saw that I didn't really have anything to do today, maybe coming with them wouldn't be that bad of a decision? Plus, I would really like to see how these two bond with each other.

"Okay, baby. Mommy will come." I said before peking her forehead.

"Really, Mommy?" She asked giddily.

But, before I can even answer the sound of the doorbell came through the atmosphere of our home, making Avery squealed as the only visitor we're expecting is Scarlett.

"Can I open the door now, Mommy?" Avery asked looking up at me with hopeful smile, and I nodded wearing the same smile she has.

I went back on making her little back pack that contains snacks, water and her teddy bear. I was in my own little world when I heard a very familiar voices, that I knew far too well. My breathing slightly became ragged, as my mind got scrambled with so many thoughts.

Why is she here with Scarlett?

The sight of them went in my gaze, Scarlett is introducing Avery to Vanessa, Avery is being held by Scarlett in her hands, while all the three of them smiled while introducing themselves to each other, and would constantly laugh when Avery would make a funny and cute comments.

Just looking at them makes my heart breaks in so many little pieces for unknown reason. Avery is mine, why would I be jealous? And, Scarlett and I are not together anymore, and I might still have this stupid feelings for her, but I know for sure that it's not that far for me to be hurt while looking at them right now.

I felt a pained tugged in my heart, as the corner of my eyes felt hot, so I quickly look away, and instantly wiped my unshed tears that is screaming to be free.

"Mommy! Look who Scarly bring! I have a new friend now, Mommy!" Avery exclaimed excitedly, and I have no choice but to face them, wearing a very faux smile I can form in my face.

My gaze caught Scarlett's first, seeing her eyes that is full of unknown emotions, before it went over to Vanessa's, who has this smug smile on her face, and then to my little girl who has a huge smile on her face.

They're all looking at me like a prey, waiting for my reaction, and in that moment, I felt alone. I felt like everyone and everything is just like a ball, that could hit me and make me feel in pain, and I have no one to hold, to ask for help to, or to save me in this messy and lonely world of mine.

"Oh, hi." I said timidly, rather quickly as I tried to contain my feelings and control my voice to not break or squeak.

"Hello, Y/n." They both said in unison, and Vanessa looked at Scarlett as in amusement as if she just won a prized, before leaning in to kiss Scarlett's cheeks.

I thought you two already broke up? I thought you already broke up with her? You can't say that you still love me, and lie that you're not in a relationship anymore. What? Because you thought you're still gonna have a chance from me? And can still manipulate me?

I want to scream all those words and questions to Scarlett, but not even a letter came out of my mouth.

I want to cancel my plan with them, I want to tell Avery that I'll not gonna be going with them anymore, but I don't want to break my poor girl's little heart.
