My princess to the Black Widow Mafia

Chapter 8. Moody Aria

Aria POV
Caleb hasn't called us for two days now but he did text me and Ace goodnight before we went to bed.

I made breakfast for Ace and got him dressed so we could go to the grocery store with Jerry to buy a few things we needed in the kitchen.

I was in a really bad mood these few days because Caleb wasn't around and it was even worse because we couldn't call him either. I wasn't getting the best of sleep either because of my nightmares.

Ace would cry a few times for Caleb I would have to cheer him up with cookies or taking him to the park.

Lydia came over a few times to help me but I didn't want her to feel like she had to help me or that I couldn't do it on my own with Ace.

She cooked us dinner we ate together Jerry drove her back home to the guest house that she was staying in while she was here for the month. "Were here Aria." Jerry said interrupting me from my thoughts.

"S-sorry um w-we w-will b-be r-right b-back." I told him getting out the car with Ace. "I'll come with you." Jerry said turning off the car to come with us in the store.

"Mom can I get a toy please?" Ace asked me. "Y-yeah j-just l-let m-me g-get e-everything w-we n-need f-first." He nodded his head holding my hand while Jerry stood behind us.

I pushed the cart through each isle grabbing what I needed off the shelf. We made it to the toy section I let Ace go get what he wanted.

"Could you get your son he can't be touching everything in the store like that." An employee said. "H-he's n-not d-doing a-anything w-wrong w-we j-just g-got h-here."

I explained to her getting angry with her for accusing Ace of something he wasn't even doing. "I understand that but he's getting out of control just get your child."

I looked at Jerry and then back to the employee. I was already in a bad mood and she just set it off. I was about to lunge forwards to attack her when Jerry quickly pulled me back.

"W-who t-the f-fuck a-are y-you t-talking t-to!" I yelled trying to get out of Jerry's arms to punch her. "Ma'am you need to calm down."

I got out of Jerry's arms punching her right in the jaw. "W-watch h-how y-you t-talk t-to p-people m-ma'am!" I mocked her.

Jerry pulled me away grabbing the cart and Ace so we could go pay for our things at the register. "Are you okay mommy?" Ace asked concerned as I picked him up. "I-I'm f-fine A-Ace."

We got to the cashier she scanned everything while another employee bagged everything for us.

"Your total is 97 dollars and 83 cent." The cashier told me. I took out the card Caleb gave me paying for the groceries.

Jerry helped put everything in the trunk driving us back home. Ace opened his new toy car to add to his car collection in his room.

"Can we call dad when we get home so I can show him my new toy car?" He asked me. "S-sure b-but I d-don't k-know I-if h-he w-will a-answer." I told him.

"Okay mommy." We made it home I helped Jerry bring in our groceries while Ace went inside the house to call Caleb.

I put all the groceries away. Ace sat at the kitchen counter calling Caleb on my phone. There was a knock at the door I went and opened it seeing two cops standing at my door steps.

"Hi we were called because a women assaulted one of the workers at the grocery store down the street." One of the cops explained. Jerry came beside me noticing the cops.

"What are you doing here Larry?" Jerry asked one of the officers. "Did she assault the worker at the grocery store just now?" The other officer asked giving Jerry an attitude.

Ace came beside me holding up the phone in the cops faces. "A-Ace w-what a-are y-you d-doing?" I took the phone from him noticing the cops seemingly got nervous for some reason.

"Princess give the phone to Larry." I heard Caleb's voice come from my phone. I handed the cop the phone listening to him. "Caleb's gonna handle it don't worry Aria." Jerry reassured me.

Larry handed me back my phone frantically. "We're sorry ma'am we got the wrong house hope you have an amazing day." The other cop that gave Jerry an attitude said practically running to his car.

Ace took the phone from me so he could talk to Caleb again. "Is mommy okay Ace?" Caleb asked him through the phone. "Yeah she's fine but she said another bad word at the store daddy." He snitched me out again.

I face palmed myself knowing I was in big trouble when Caleb came home tomorrow. "Mommy's been really moody lately I think she misses you." Ace told him sitting at the kitchen counter again.

"Let me talk to her Ace." He handed me the phone I walked away from Ace knowing Caleb was about to give me an ear full.

"Tell me why you got in a fight princess you never did this before why now?" He asked. "B-because s-she w-was b-being r-rude t-to m-me a-and A-Ace" I explained hoping that was a valid enough explanation.

"You never cuss why are you saying bad words now?" He asked. "B-because-... I-I d-don't k-know I-it's y-your f-fault."

I blamed him because he's the one that left making me moody and bratty. "My fault! And how is that suppose to be a good reason for you saying such filthy words." He adamantly said.

"Listen to me princess fix your attitude I'm coming home tomorrow. I'm telling you right now that filthy mouth of yours and that attitude isn't gonna be their when I'm done with you." He promisingly taunted making me nervous suddenly.

"Y-your b-being m-mean." I whined angrily. "I gave you plenty of chances to get your attitude straight. I warned you before I left that I would find out if your being a little brat." He reminded me.

"I-I'm h-hanging u-up y-your b-being a r-really b-big m-meanie n-now." Before he could respond i hung up taking a deep breath knowing I was in a lot of trouble when he got home.

I went back into the kitchen Jerry smiling at me with a knowing look. "D-don't b-be m-mean J-Jerry I a-already r-regret I-it." He shook his head laughing softly at me.

I went back to putting the rest of the groceries away Ace played with his toy car on the kitchen counter.

I didn't know what Caleb was going to do to me when he got home but I knew it was going to be pure torture.
