The Deal • Scarlett Johansson x Y/N

No, mother. You Are.

NEXT DAY

Y/N took a deep breath while fixing her suit. She's currently at the front door of her grandmother's house, preparing herself for what's waiting for her. She just knows that her mother will try to ruin her day.

You can't let her win. She said to herself, then she finally rang the doorbell.

A minute later, the door opened and revealed a woman. She looked like she was in her early fifties, and she looked like she was a model in her youth. Still beautiful and classy.

"Oh, wow. They were right, Y/N L/N will really come today." The woman said, smiling.

"Well, hello." Y/N said, giving the woman a charming smile.

"Come in." The woman said, smiling. "I'm Charlotte."

"I'm Y/N, nice to meet you, Charlotte." Y/N said with a smile.

Just then, Y/N's mother appeared.

"I see, you two already met." Y/M/N said. She walked towards Y/N and Charlotte. She looked at her daughter, raising an eyebrow. "Y/N, nice of you to join us."

"Mother." Y/N greeted with a blank expression.

"This is my girlfriend, Charlotte." Y/M/N said.

Y/N chuckled dryly, "Oh, you got tired of men, huh? Now you also play for the other team." She said.

"Don't talk to me like that." Y/M/N said through gritted teeth, glaring at her daughter.

"You never changed." Y/N mumbled, and she excused herself before leaving them and going to the backyard, where the celebration will take place.

She greeted everyone there; she's not really close to her mother's side, just with her granny. Her grandpa died three years ago, and she was close with him too.

"Happy birthday, granny." Y/N whispered to her grandmother, giving her a warm hug. "I got you something, it's a special gift."

She got her granny a custom gift, and it has a button behind it. If you press it, you'll hear the voice of her grandpa saying, I love you, my one and only. It's something that her grandpa used to say to her granny. She knows her granny will love it. And she got that from a video of her grandpa being sweet to her granny. It was so cute and lovely.

"What is it, darling?" Y/GM/N (Your Grandma's Name) asked, smiling.

Y/N pulled away and handed her granny the paper bag she's holding. "It's a teddy bear, and it has a button behind it. Press it, granny." She said, smiling.

Y/GM/N excitedly took out the teddy bear and immediately pressed the button.

"I love you, my one and only."

Y/GM/N gasped and she immediately started crying while hugging the teddy bear. "Oh, my."

Y/N smiles softly and she kissed her granny's head.

AN HOUR LATER

"You should sort your shit out, Y/N." Y/M/N said, looking at Y/N. "All I'm seeing in the news is you and this Scarlett woman, and then you and your ex-wife. What the hell is that?"

Y/N took a deep breath, she's getting tired of hearing her mother's voice and her nagging. It only has been an hour but her mother already blabbered so fucking much, attacking her here and there.

"Stop that already, Y/M/N." Y/GM/N said, giving her daughter a look. "I haven't seen my granddaughter in a while because she's busy working, I want to have a peaceful time with her. And peaceful birthday."

"I just want her to get herself together because she's embarrassing herself and me." Y/M/N said.

Y/N scoffed, "You're embarrassing yourself. How long will this woman last, huh? You want different partners every week. My dad's better off without you."

"Oh, please. You're just like your father, weak and pathetic." Y/M/N said.

"Y/M/N!" Y/GM/N raised her voice.

Y/N clenched her jaw and glared at her mother. "You're the pathetic one. Abusing your child for your own amusement, cheating on my dad when all he did was loved and cared for you. You're so pathetic that you can't settle for one person."

"You little—"

"What? You're mad? What're you gonna do? Fucking hurt me?" Y/N said with hatred, then she chuckled bitterly and looked at Charlotte. "You should save yourself while you still can, you look like a nice person. You don't deserve to be heartbroken, and trust me, you will be if you stay with my mother. She likes to play with people's hearts and lives."

"You little shit." Y/M/N said, and she's getting red because of embarrassment and anger.

"No, mother. You are." Y/N said, glaring at her mother.

"You shut your mouth or I'll make you." Y/M/N said, full of anger.

"You know what, mom? I still don't understand why you're like this. My granny is a great mother to you, grandpa was the best father to you. Why the fu—"

"Because I didn't want you!" Y/M/N blurted out.

That shut Y/N up.

"Y/M/N, shut your mouth." Y/GM/N warned her daughter.

"No, ma!" Y/M/N shouted and stood up, "My dear daughter wants to know the truth. I'll give her the fucking truth."

Y/N just looked at her mother.

Y/M/N looked at Y/N, "I didn't want you. Your father and I got drunk because we were both a mess and we ended up sleeping together, and I got pregnant because of that. I wanted to abort you but my mother found out I was pregnant. I didn't have any choice but to confess and when your father found out, he asked me to marry him. I didn't want to, but our parents made us do so. So, you see? I never wanted you or your father!"

Hearing that was a stab in Y/N's heart. As much as it saddens her, it also makes her angry. She stood up and glared at her mother. "And you punished me for that? It wasn't my fault! I never fucking asked to be born! You and dad were reckless! But at least dad took care of me, he knows his responsibility! But you? All you did was punish me for something I didn't even do! And you really should've killed me before I was even born because you're not a mother, you never were."

"And I'll never be!" Y/M/N shouted.

"Then why the fuck you fought for a joint custody?! You know damn well that dad will let me see granny and grandpa even if he got full custody, so why did you fought for a joint custody?" Y/N asked, and she couldn't help but to raise her voice.

"Because I wanted to punish you! I wanted to hurt you!" Y/M/N yelled.

Y/N shook her head. "You're not making any sense, mom. You had a chance to live your life without me and dad. But you chose to continue hurting me? For what? For being born? I didn't even asked to be born, mom! I..." She stopped, she didn't know what else to say. She's hurt and confused.

She clenched her jaw and just kissed her granny's head and apologized to her before she walked out.
