Leora.
Okay...something was...off.
Since I got out of my room to set, everyone...and I mean everyone has been giving me the eye...
Some had pure shock on their face,some disappointment,others jealousy.
And here I was, oblivious to what was going on.
"Okay...Can someone tell me what the fuck is going on?"I bang the script i was reviewing on the vanity...startling everyone.
"N-N-Nothing is going on at all Ms. Kohen...what do you mean?" My assistant Shauni says in an unusually cherry voice.
She was clearly lying.
"Shauni,you are clearly lying...so spit it out cause i will not ask again" I say sternly and she gulps...staying silent.
"Melissa" I gesture to my make up artist...who had been unusually quiet.
"There is rumors going round about you and Jon being in a relationship" She blurts out and Shauni sighs.
"What??"
"Yeah,its all over every tabloid and news site you can think of...and there are...pictures"
"B-But we know its not you...you could not do such a thing" Shauni immediately chips in and I am rooted there in my seat,stunned.
Jon was the male lead in the movie I was currently shooting and we have been friends for a very long time.
So where was this narrative coming from...and pictures??
Ashton...
Oh my God...Ashton must have seen this and must be thinking the worst of me...
I need to talk to him...now!!
"Shauni...Shauni,where is my phone??I need to talk to someone immediately" I start frantically searching for my phone i havent seen since morning on the vanity.
"Ms. Kohen-"
"WHERE IS THE FUCKING PHONE SHAUNI??" I yell on top of my voice startling her...And I immediately feel bad. But apologizing to her could come later...I needed to talk to Ashton.
"Ms. Kohen your phone is dead remember? There was a power outage in your hotel so you gave me this morning to charge"
Fuck.
"You phone then Shauni...I need your phone right now" I reach for her phone which she gives immediately and I dial Ashtons number with shaky hands.
He picks after the 3rd ring...
"Hello?" His voice came out low and strained...like he had been crying...and I did not know it was possible,but at that moment my heart broke.
And I knew there and then...I was falling for my husband...
I was falling for Ashton Carter.
Leora
"Ashe" My voice came out a little above a whisper and although the line went silent for just a moment... It felt like eternity.
"Leora"He did not call me Mrs. Carter...
For the first time in my life...I hated someone calling my name.
It was cold... Lacking any form of warmth. Plain.
The way Ashton usually called my name was special...The way he called me...like I was his whole world,his everything... Even though this whole marriage was an arrangement.
But today...it felt like merely him taking my name was making him physically sick.
I took a deep breath in..
