Before leaving, Ryan certainly checked Ruby's location via CCTV. Until he can figure out, that the person who brought Ruby is Andrew.
There are some streets that have not been installed with CCTV. That's where Ryan had to split up with his subordinates. Entering the street area where Lily's clinic is located.
At the same time, Ruby decides to hide in a safe place. He was resting because his leg was very painful. As a result, Ruby is now hiding among the bushes that can cover her body tightly. In a dark enough location, Ruby's entire body is well hidden.
Ruby fumbles on her pants pocket. He remembered that he had forgotten to bring a cell phone. Ruby breathed heavily from her mouth. She is confused about how to contact her husband.
'It's because I'm playing too much with Ryan. I should have been more careful. I miss him so much.' Inner Ruby. He sat down in a state of folding his legs. Drowns his face behind his two knees. Clear liquid started to radiate from his eyes.
Ruby's cry had to stop, when Andrew's voice was running. The man took his step forward while answering a phone call from someone.
Ruby immediately smothered her mouth with two hands. He didn't play with Ryan like he did in the previous time. His concealment should not be known to Andrew or Carl.
Andrew looked for Ruby by checking into the houses around. He knocked on the houses one by one. Ruby, who knows it, must be forced to stay in place so that Andrew does not find it. After all, if she was to be found, Ruby was sure that she would have a hard time escaping back.
When the time passed by half an hour, Andrew went to find Ruby somewhere else. That's when Ruby came out of hiding. The girl walked slowly in no direction. The main goal was to find a pay phone.
Ruby was slow enough. All because of his leg that was still recovering from a gunshot wound. It just so happened that in the middle of the night, a chill seemed to pierce his skin. Ruby was only able to hug her own body. The breath he let out of his nose, revealing a clear puff of smoke due to the cold.
After a long step, Ruby finally saw a public phone from a distance. Without a second thought, he made his way. Until it can enter the phone box that is painted in red. But when it was right in front of the phone, Ruby just remembered that she did not bring any money at all.
"Damn!" Ruby was very upset. He blamed himself even more. Before getting out of the phone box, Ruby was startled by a passing car. He could see Carl was in the car.
Ruby was forced to stay in the phone box, until Carl's car left. Next, he came out.
A young man who happened to pass by caught Ruby's attention. He called the young man for help.
"Do you have any coins. I'm in a state of urgency, and I need to contact someone!" pinta Ruby to the young man whose face looked down languidly.
The young man was silent for a moment. Looking at the appearance of Ruby from the tip of the foot to the head. He clearly ascertained the truth spoken by Ruby. After witnessing the wound at Ruby's feet, the young man reached into his jacket pocket. He took out some coins and gave them to Ruby.
"Thank you so much! You saved my life!" Ruby was very happy. She appreciates the help of the young man who helped her with a kiss on the cheek.
The face of the young man who seemed to be fifteen years old, suddenly turned red. He peeked because he did not expect Ruby's kiss. The young man said nothing. She held onto the part of her cheek that had gotten a touch from Ruby's lips.
Inside the phone box, Ruby rushed to contact someone. It just so happens that the phone number she remembers belongs to Gaby. Ruby did not memorize Ryan's phone number, because her husband often changed mobile cards.
"Hello?" Gaby answered from across the phone.
"Gabe! It's me Ruby. Can you come get me? Those cops are still trying to catch me!" exciting Ruby.
"Of course, Ruby! We're all looking for you, too. Tell me where are you now?" reply Gaby who sounded excited.
"I'm..." Ruby looked around. He was trying to recognize where he was now. Everything looks foreign to Ruby. Fortunately, the young man who had helped Ruby was still silent on the spot. So Ruby could go back and ask for her help.
"Wait a minute!" Ruby put the phone still open. He came out to ask.
"Hey, Boy! Do you know the name of the street we're on now?" ask Ruby.
The young man who had been looking nodded. He swallowed his saliva first and replied, "Garden 42 Street."
"Thank you!" sahut Ruby while back in the phone box. He immediately told Gaby where he was.
Ruby was finally able to snort a sigh of relief. He slowly came out of the phone box. Waiting for someone to come to pick him up.
"Sorry!" the young man was embarrassed. He wanted to leave quickly. But Ruby immediately intercepted his movements.
"If you don't have a destination, can you accompany me until my friend picks me up?" pinta Ruby developed a thin smile.
As if bewitched by Ruby's beauty and treatment, the young man could not resist. His head immediately nodded to agree. As a result, she and Ruby sat next to each other on the front bench of a closed shop.
"What's your name?" ask Ruby.
"Dian.." the young man told me his name.
"I'm Tara." Ruby chose to disguise her name. He did it just in case.
"Who are you being chased by?" stuttering Ian. He still felt wrong about dealing with Ruby.
"You think?" Ruby raised both eyebrows. I told Ian to guess. But Ian just shook his head, not knowing what to answer.
"I'm accused of stealing something. That's why the police keep coming after me. But everything's fine now." Ruby explained while taking a long breath. Her hair was slightly fluttering as a result of being hit by the night wind. The cold snared his white skin again.
"I-this is. You can wear my jacket." Ian gave Ruby his jacket. He was a little embarrassed when he did.
"You're so sweet, Ian." Ruby received Ian's jacket. Now he feels warmer in that jacket.
"Why are these nights hanging around outside the house?" Ruby continued the conversation.
"My mom and dad had a fight. I think it's better to get out of the house as far as possible" said Ian, who returned to his own expression.
"I'm so sorry. So don't know what you're feeling right now." Ruby showed her empathy.
"It's ok. It'll all be over by morning." Ian looked up to stare at the black sky with a hint of stars.
From a distance, a red car approached. Luckily Ruby was able to recognize the car. Ruby could tell, because she remembered some of Ryan's cars. One of them is a red car that is now running towards him.
The red car that had been driving, immediately stopped when it witnessed the appearance of Ruby. Mike, who happened to be driving, slowly opened the window.
"Come on!" press Mike.
"All right!" Ruby got up from her seat and took off her jacket. Then return the jacket to the owner. He did not say a word, and again gave a kiss. This time Ruby kissed Ian on the forehead.
"Good bye!" pamit Ruby's. He was sure he would not meet Ian again.
Ian gasp. She wakes up when Ruby is seen almost getting into the car. Ian automatically stopped Ruby.
"Tara!" ian's call successfully made Ruby turn her head.
"Can I come with you?" asked Ian expectantly.
Ruby smiled and said, "I'm sorry, Ian. You better get back to your parents. They must be worried about you."
In an instant, Mike drove his car. Leaving Ian who looks sad when left by Ruby.
"Who is he?" mike asked while glancing at Ian through the rearview mirror.
"Only teenagers. She was very helpful to me, "Ruby replied, leaning back against the seat. He was relieved to be back home.
