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.

I THINK THEY WERE RIGHT THEN!

Thea sat silently, thinking about what could be going on in Ruth's mind. For some reason, she did not get a good feeling about it, but one thing she was sure of was that she was with Ruth at every step, even if that led them to the pits of fire.

The carriage slowed down when it reached the crowded roads of the market. Ruth was looking outside the window of the carriage with not much on her mind. All she wanted to do then was find Edwin's arms around her.

She hoped he had returned from his job by now.

As the coachman tried to get the way out of the crowd, Ruth watched the hustle and bustle of the market. She missed it!

Her attention was caught by a small puppy, who was staring right at her. She found it to be cute. A group of kids came running to that puppy and began playing with it in adoration. They liked to scratch his neck and ran their small hands on its back.

Ruth smiled, watching them play with that puppy.
