Ruby texts me every day. I would like to think that I'm not being affected by it.
But then the ringer on my phone goes off (when did I start taking my phone off silent mode?) and I'm reaching for my pocket or my purse or wherever I left my phone at to check my messages with a swift feeling of urgency. She texts me at seemingly random hours, on whatever whim she has, about a subject that I usually don't really care about, but suddenly do care about, because it's her texting me about it. Mother says that she's thinks it's good I've made a friend, even though she's only met Ruby once she's assured me that the girl must be a good influence. Whitely thinks I should make friends in higher places. I don't know what it is about me that makes her want to text me, and I'm a bit taken back with how frequently she feels comfortable sending messages. Ruby came into my messages (or life) very suddenly, and throttling towards me at full force.
