I'm writing a short story structured like this:

Character A's POV

* * *

Character B's POV

* * *

Character B's POV

* * *

Character A's POV

* * *

Character B's POV

* * *

Based on the first two scenes, the reader would expect to have Character A in the third scene.

How to prevent this kind of confusion?

Make it clear that it's from Character B's POV.

Don't overthink it. It's okay to create a structure and break it for an effect.
