Chapter One Hundred Two

Ryan arrived at the house, with various gifts and some snacks, approaching her apartment before taking a deep breath. He rang the doorbell, there was no answer. He knocked and there was still no answer. He was getting discouraged already.

"Ruby?" He called out and still, nothing. He took a deep breath before turning the doorknob, letting himself in. He dropped everything behind the door, on the floor as he looked around the living room.

"Rubes?" He called out as he looked around the room, his voice came down to a whisper as his eyes fell on the figure, crouched on the floor as she held onto herself, he pulled his shoes off, his feet clad in a pair of socks as he advanced towards the sleeping lady. <
