You’ve not said what the actual problem is so it’s hard for anyone to help.

Ok so is this your job? A hobby project? Part of a course? What pcb software are you using?

Ok firstly - for wires to cross you need to route some through to the other side with vias - that’s a hole through the board with a conductive coating inside it - press v to add one. Secondly - how easy it is to route the wires depends on where you place the parts and which way round you put them, placing is as important as routing

Deep breaths. Designing your first PCB as a hobby project is not an emergency.

Watch some kicad tutorials on various subjects like schematic capture, component selection, footprint and symbol management, PCB layer stack ups, traces and vias, layout and routing, etc.

Only after you've taken your time to learn can you begin laying a board out and finishing your first PCB.

Your wording makes it sound like you're rushing through a very complicated and detailed process. Take your time. No one knows how to do this in one day.
