Chapter 23
It was at that moment that Maya realised that her brothers would be in real danger if her mom doesn't divorce her dad and gets custody of all the kids together.
Back in the balcony having the ultimate conversation on how their kids were going to survive with the stance of their divorce.
Mr Scatt: Sighs "Our divorce will take place in a month, how are we going to do with the custody of ki–"
Mrs Scatts: Yells "So you're trying to negotiate the custody of our kids with me?" Looks at him up and down annoyingly "You must be very stupid, because if not for your stupidity, how would you bring my sons looking like rags because you have been taking care of them and still want to be demanding custody" Hisses in his face and goes "As we can both see, my son's that you have been "Taking care of" Hair quotes "Look like trash, and from here you can also see how healthy and calm my Maya is so I think we can all agree that I will be the one with all the kids, but you can come visit from time to time" Looks at him deep in the eyes like she would kill him if he said something wrong and goes "Any objection?"
Mr Scatt: "No,no, i have zero objections" Looks away from her eyes because of how scary she looked "It is true that I haven't been doing a great job at taking care of the boys, everything has just be consequential and it feels like I am always sticking out my neck instead of protecting them so when I am leaving, I'll leave alone and drop them with you so that you can take care of them better. And I am also grateful to you for letting me come visit some times".
Mrs Scatts: "Great, then let's talk about that divorce–"
Mr Scatt: "Actually I think there should be no need for divorce, we are already seperated, and divorce will only cost more money and decisions we might not be able to withstand so, it is better that instead of taking it all to the courtroom we've done our thing our selves, so I think divorce won't be necessary, what…t..,t..t" Stammares "What do you think?"
Mrs Scatts: "It is a good idea to prevent us from spending a lot of money and wasting time, but I'll need time to think about it and discuss it with my lawyer, so I'll tell you later, for now, feel free to leave".
Mr Scatt: "I do need to leave because my work schedule is tight 😕, but I will be back tomorrow to come take the boys out. We have a little trip we had been organising, so feel free to come with Maya if you want to, the bus is pretty big".
Mrs Scatts: "Hmm hmm, okay, see you tomorrow".
After Mr Scatt had left, Mrs Scatts moved closer to the boys and got told how their dad was treating them from Maya, and couldn't help but break down in tears and give the kids the tightest hug ever and then it was time for them to prepare their lunch. Normally in their old house the kid and their mother were the ones who would make lunch together after she got back from work. They would all go into the kitchen, paint their faces with flowers runaround, grind what they had to grind and have so much fun. So from there it became a family thing but since the separation and the start of the divorce they hadn't had the opportunity to do that again. But since they were in their mother's house even though their father was not there they could redo and reinvent and restart the family little ritual at lunch. Decided to make tortilla de patatas because their mother was half Spanish and she woulf always make them that after they had an argument. After the shenanigans in the kitchen and lots and lots of laughs they finally had their tortilla de pasadas prepared. It was delicious. The family ate it together on the dining table like a real family and had a quick nap after.
Back in the Collen's house, Lisa was located in her room having a little chat with one of her friends, Lacrosse. The chat was about the situation she was having with Maya at the moment. She figured that no one would understand a girl's fight other than a girl's, so since Lacrosse was her other best friend apart from Lisa, she thought it was just right to call her and explain things to her so she wouldn't go crazy.
Lacrosse: "So, tell me, how did the fight happen?"
Lisa: "Well, to be honest the fight is ally fault, and we've always had fights like this where everything would be my fault and even though, she would still be the one who would come apologize, but this time it's a little weird that she still hasn't come begging, and it's been almost a week already.".
Lacrosse: "I didn't ask you about the types of fights you've had with her, I am asking you for how THIS fight that is happening right now went down, so stop beating around the bush and tell me what you did".
Lisa: "Very well…" Sighs "So what happened was that, I like Franclon and we had met even before our parents met themselves or thought of marriage. We had had sex like multiple times and it was finally leading to something, like a relationship. But then our parents met each other and decided to marry, so we also thought it would be a good idea to pump the brakes on our relationship because we were going to be siblings soon and siblings being lovers isn't really understandable. Fast forward to after the marriage, when my mom decided to come and spend the rest of her pretty long life here with Franclon's dad, Franclon and Maya met each other and had the most amazing sex on the first night of meeting their selves–"
