among the gifts were terrible winterfest sweaters; ones she, of course, insisted they wear for a family picture, no exceptions allowed.

but scarlett had turned away first. as she walked toward the entrance, someone called her name. she stopped, smiled, signed an autograph with hands that no longer shook. behind her, j blended back into the crowd, smaller now. just another face among many.

security finally stepped in then, asking him to move along. his eyes slid back to the building, the crowd, the proof that her life was moving forward without him. that, more than anything, seemed to drain the fight out of him. he didn’t resist. there was nothing left to gain by making a scene.

she tried to be understanding, not wanting her kids to end up with a permanently strained relationship with their father over what had happened. still, she stood her ground. this had to be the last time he sought her out, nearly harassing her, in his attempts to fix his relationship with the kids.

she moved past the anger and saw the hurt in his eyes. he had brought this on himself, yet still... he was right. he was the one who had lost the most in the divorce. for the first time, a flicker of pity for him stirred within her.

she stiffened. there it was. of course it was about the money, the loss of control he no longer had through it. scarlett took a breath, steadying herself. she felt heat rise in her chest, but still, she didn’t raise her voice.

she turned toward him slowly, folding her arms across her chest. where they really doing this again, here of all places? j scoffed, gaze flicking past her to the entrance, the flashes, the security. behind them, the bouncer had already sensed something was off and was watching from a distance.

the night was buzzing with cameras, voices, and nervous energy. amid the noise, she heard her name called out in a tone that had nothing to do with starstruck excitement. it was a voice she hadn’t heard in months now, but still recognized immediately. j stood there, hands clenched at his sides.

but he didn’t have to wait long. scarlett was among the first nominees to step outside, not especially interested in small talk or mingling with these big-shot celebrities. she froze for a moment at the crowd gathered for her autograph, then began signing, smiling happily and taking it all in.

but someone else was closely watching her moment of triumph. outside the brightly lit building, amid a growing crowd of fans, he lingered, just like others in the crowd, tempted to do whatever it took (even bribe the bouncer) to get his way inside.

the moment turned surreal when she heard her name coming from the host’s microphone. 𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘴 𝘤𝘰𝘶𝘭𝘥𝘯’𝘵 𝘣𝘦 𝘩𝘢𝘱𝘱𝘦𝘯𝘪𝘯𝘨, 𝘤𝘰𝘶𝘭𝘥 𝘪𝘵? for a beat, everything went blank, until the sound of applause finally reached her ears and she managed to rise with trembling legs, unsteadily making her way to the stage.

the thought lingered as she took her seat among sims nation’s biggest celebrities. the host began his speech, and she still couldn’t believe she was in the same room as judith ward, thorne bailey, and so many others.

she tried to pull herself together before arriving at the ceremony, but as soon as her taxi let her out among the limousines and paparazzi, her pulse spiked again. 𝘸𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘱𝘭𝘶𝘮 𝘢𝘮 𝘪 𝘥𝘰𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘩𝘦𝘳𝘦? the thought kept looping in her head as she made her way toward the entrance, guarded by security.

scarlett froze, the words landing a second too late. she wanted to ask if he’d actually read it, actually read it, what he’d thought, if he had... but he was already stepping back into his apartment, that familiar half-smile fixed in place.

he shook his head, clearly still catching up, before answering with a soft, earnest smile. the tips of scarlett's ears warmed at his response, and she felt a sudden shyness creeping in.

she called a taxi and got out in the hallway, where she nearly him into kiyohsi. her heels were clicking sharply against the tile as she hurried along, too loud in the quiet space. kiyoshi stopped short on his way to his mailbox, eyes lifting to her, and then he just stared.

still, she dreaded that night. she felt a knot of anxiety in her chest, already bracing herself about going alone, in that dress which felt like a costume, surrounded by celebrities. she couldn’t shake the feeling that she didn’t belong, that she would be an intruder who’d wandered in by mistake.

for once, maybe even for the first time in her life, scarlett felt truly on top of the world. the feeling only intensified when some astonishing news reached her: her book, the same one that had sat under so many winterfest trees, had been nominated for a starlight accolade award.

another gift she had gotten for them all was a gaming console. by the next morning, it had already taken over the living room. hours of play had passed, voices raised, and the competition had turned absurdly fierce.

winterfest followed soon after. scarlett took an almost childish pleasure in piling presents at the base of the tree, each new package a small thrill. her heart was full with the unapologetic joy of finally being able to spoil her kids, and herself, without guilt.
