A MAZE OF GREED

"Don't stop, Ruth. Run, run!" Thea yelled again while moving her hands. Before Edwin turned her around and got a chance to see her face, Ruth pulled her hand up and jabbed his nose. Edwin wailed in pain as he felt his nose go numb with pain. Instinctively he freed Ruth to cover his nose with both hands. He bent over a little as his eyes watered because of pain. "You!" He hissed in anger as he leapt again for Ruth. But she managed to run before he could catch her again. Her head turned around in shock when Edwin's hand tore her dress when he tried to grab her. It also surprised Edwin as he had not intended for this to happen. He looked up from the piece of cloth in his hand to see gorgeous hazel eyes. He stood rooted to his spot as his mind went blank. Ruth managed to get out of the property and ran with Thea without looking back. The guard came panting, but Edwin didn't notice him as his eyes were still trained on the gap in the wall, through which Ruth escaped. He slowly looked at the brown fabric in his hand, and the image of those alluring hazel eyes flashed in his mind. He clutched the fabric tightly in his hand, and the word left his lips in a whisper.

YOU ARE JUST IN DENIAL!

Ruth was at Thea's home with the red velvet box of the earrings placed between them.

"Ruth you are not going to achieve anything with this silence. You have to think fast because in few hours, you will need to be there wearing these earrings to hear his answer." Thea said after ten minutes of silence.

Ruth shook her head in distress.

"Thea, you are not getting it. There are... there are hundreds of things running on my mind. I can not decide this in a minute. I am still trying to wrap up my head around what he has done and what he is expecting me to do." Ruth said while rubbing the corner of her head.

"Then let's address those hundreds of things one by one." Thea suggested.

Ruth nodded, although she was not sure how many things she could discuss with Thea. Her plan of revenge was definitely not one of them.

"Does this... this means... he... he l-likes me?" Asking that sounded very weird to Ruth at the same time, it made her tingle at places.
