Satoru has been getting on his nerves lately, more so now than in the past six months. Geto was trying to leave the country and go visit Y/N but it was impossible for him to do without compromising her location. Gojo had become his shadow, wherever he went, whatever he did… he was there. He even had to stop communicating with y/n, least Satoru finds out how they kept in touch and ruined everything.

“Good morning, Suguru” the platinum-haired sorcerer said, smirking and lifting his coffee cup as a greeting “how are you doing today?” Continued while walking down the street from the cafe Suguru just left, shamelessly following him “what do you want now Satoru?” Asked Geto, straight to the point. “What? Am I not allowed to spend some time with my best friend?” Asked with a smidge of sarcasm.
Geto Suguru was his only friend, he was also someone who he had wronged, not that he ever would admit it out loud but he was trying to mend his wrongs. He knew if he didn’t have Suguru on his side Y/N wouldn’t forgive him either. That was the downfall of sharing a best friend with your lovely wife.
He didn’t even want to begin thinking about how twisted and complex their relationship was.

There was no way to put it in simple terms but… Satoru always knew that Suguru was in love with his wife, on a purely platonic level. Since Y/N and himself started dating Suguru never gave indications of changing his behavior, he merely accepted that both his best friends were happy and so he was too. Satoru knew and trusted them both, neither of them had it in them to betray his trust (he truly didn’t deserve them in his life).

That flimsy balance had been disturbed when Gojo, in his idiocy had gone and fucked up everything. Now Y/N didn’t want anything to do with him while she relayed 100% on Geto. It seemed that the tables have turned.

He didn’t have concrete proof but he couldn’t believe his wife would leave and choose not to talk to their best friend again. So his best chance to get to her was through Suguru.

“Is she doing ok?” He asked softly while they walked down the street. Suguru sighed, that was a loaded question, whichever way he chose to answer was not going to be good. “I’m not answering your questions Satoru” added in a monotone voice. If he told Gojo that she was fine that would be admitting to the fact she kept in touch with him, he didn’t want to do that either. Because then… Satoru would be stuck to his ass, like a leach, 24/7 until he found out where she was.
“Suguru…. “ they both stopped walking. Satoru sighed and ran his hands through his disheveled platinum strands. “Listen… I know I fucked up… ok? “ admitting it was like pulling teeth but he couldn’t just charm/sweet talk his way with Suguru.
“I know it wasn’t right but… I’m trying my best to fix this and make it up to her.” Geto frowned, folding his arms over his muscular chest.
“Don’t you have a child and a woman to take care of Satoru?” He questioned sternly.
“No! It’s not like that” quipped prematurely “I mean… the child… it wasn’t mine…” admitted mildly embarrassed he had been fooled.
Suguru scoffed and he swore he heard something along the lines of ‘serves you well’ under his breath. He did deserve that one.

“Look… I know you love her too and you want the best for her, but… She is my wife Suguru! I cannot give up just like that! What would you do in my place?!” Asked irritated, trying to get Geto to put himself in his place.

Geto was quiet for a few minutes, regarding his friend under his analytic glare “If I had been in your position I would have NEVER cheated on my wife, I could never hurt her that way! I would have never made her question whether she was good enough for me or not!” Answered holding an inclement stare. The memories of his sweet Kitten crying herself to sleep, breaking down in his arms, the despair and anguish in her raw voice. Her bleak features contorted in pain were engraved on fire in his mind.
“To answer your question Satoru. If Y/N was my wife I would have never given her up for the world. I would have never fucked her over and would have never changed her for any other woman. So no, I cannot understand why you did what you did.”

Satoru sunk in his spot, like a chastised child. He hated to admit it but his best friend had always been the better man out of the two of them. He might not be the strongest but he was the better person.

Sweat dripped from her exhausted body, after running for 5 miles she finally decided to make her way back to her apartment on the upper west side to take a shower and have breakfast before heading out to the studio.
Two hard-boiled eggs, a cup of black coffee, and half of a grapefruit in slices were all you had before going to the metro. Today was an important day, you were auditioning for the prima ballerina role in The Swan Lake. This was probably the most important audition of your life. The past few months you poured your entire self into this. It was your way of coping. More like avoiding dealing with the pain and trauma that Satoru caused, by completely ignoring it, and you do something else instead.
It was a cowardly move but at least this didn’t imply her drowning in her depression.
Thinking about him made her stomach tighten, she hated the butterflies within every time she recalled his ridiculously deep and crystalline blue eyes. Sighing she shook her head, she had to stop doing that. Satoru was never going to be part of her life ever again…
He probably already moved on with that woman and his baby. (Ouch)
Swallowing the lump in her throat she chose instead to focus on her mental map for the choreography she was to execute.

After five hours and multiple rehearsals of the choreography later Y/N was finally done for the day. The judges and the MET Board of representatives took notes and requested the girls they considered the best to remain to repeat their performance while the rest was slowly dismissed. At the end of the day, there was only Petrova Ekaterina left.
Oh yes! That was a new identity Y/N had assumed in NY. She also changed her hair color and wore contacts to conceal her natural features. After Suguru warned her about how Satoru had been so close to finding her twice. Using her actual names was leading him to her easily so they decided to up their game and go for the unexpected.
She still couldn’t understand why her ex-husband kept trying to find her!? Why couldn’t he just move on with his life and pretend she never existed?! I mean, wasn’t he too busy with his demanding sorcerer life, new partner, and child.
But Y/N knew him all too well. She was certain that his behavior was nothing but Satoru trying to stroke his ego, a miserable attempt at having ‘the last word’… egocentric bastard.

She picked up her phone, an email from her lawyer in Japan.
12Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ048gBUbgcu
From: Mr. Hirano
Subject: Gojo Divorce Paperwork
12Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSX9gIxrGns
Mrs. Gojo,
I regret to inform you that your divorce has not gone through, the other party refuses to sign the paperwork and there have been other complications.
I don’t know how to tell you this but the clerk says they seem to have lost your petition in the system. Both the physical and electronic copies of your request are not on file.
My apologies but you will have to file again.
12Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGhZQgq8Y8i
Kind Regards.

She froze on her seat “what… the… fuck…” she whispered feeling her head spinning. That’s impossible!… Not it isn’t! Supplied her brain.
Of course, it wasn’t! She was trying to divorce an asshole who literally could warp anywhere he wanted and do whatever he wanted! This had Satoru written all over it! She could see he was trying to force her hand by making her go back to Japan to file for divorce again. But he was absolutely mistaken if he thought he could coerce her into doing anything anymore

Grabbing her phone the woman called her lawyer’s phone number “Greetings Mr. Hirano, I would like you to talk me through the process of sending you a full power of attorney”
She was not going back to Japan, Gojo Satoru was not going to force her hand ever again.
{“But tonight
I need you to save me
I’m too close to breaking
I see a light
I am standing on the edge of my life” }
