A few weeks after the last part (bc I had no motivation)
—————————————————————————-
*Max* Ruby does PT (physical therapy) three times a week. And I have to drive her there. She does it for four hours so most of the time I just drop her off and go back home but today I want to stay and watch. She has been doing PT for a whole week now! Hopefully she recovers and recovers quickly because I hate seeing her in a wheelchair. Okay, we just got to they PT building.
*Max helps Ruby out of the car and onto her wheelchair* "Thank you, bye Max!" Ruby said as she went inside on her wheelchair. "I'm going to stay and watch today" I said. "Oh ok, let's go in!" She said. *they walk in* "Hey Ruby Dr. Micheal will be here shortly you can go stand over there and wait if you want" the girl at the front desk said. *Ruby blinked at her twice as if she was saying, "are you serious?"* "Oh I'm sorry I mean sit" she corrected herself. "Hey Ruby ready to begin?" The doctor said. *Ruby nodded shyly* "is this your older brother?" The doctor asked. "No" Ruby said quietly and not making eye contact with anyone. "C'mon don't be shy Ruby, you know me!" He said. We all walk to the room that she does PT in. I'm surprised she is being shy, she is never shy, to anyone. We go into a small  room with a bunch of equipment. "Okay Ruby, today are we gonna stand?" The doctor asked. *Ruby nodded nervously* "perfect!" He said. He got what look like to ballet bars parallel from each other and close together. "Okay now grab onto the bars and push yourself up" he said. *Ruby did it but she was really shaky* "Good! Sit back down" he said. *She sat back down. They did that a couple times and then doctor put the bars away.* "grab my hand" he said. *Ruby grabbed his hand* "now stand up" he said. *Ruby slowly stood up and the doctor let go of her hand* "Good job!" He said. Ruby looked like she was in pain and it was hard for her. I feel so bad. "You can sit down now" he said. *Ruby slowly sat back down*

                         ~a few hours later~

"Okay Ruby, great job today! You are done for today" he said. *They went out of the building and got into the car. It was a silent drive home* When we got home and went inside, Alex looked like he was scared and had something on his mind. "You good bro?" I asked. "Well you know how every year Isabella come and takes the triplets and leaves us with suborn little babies?"
He said. "Yes" I said. "Well she took the triplets but didn't give us babies! Well she did but only one this time!" He said. "That's nice" I said. Ruby finally made it over here. "Did you feed the triplets then put them down for a nap?" She asked. "Well it's no longer triplets, there is only one!" He said. "What did you do to the other two?!" Ruby asked. "Calm down Isabella took them silly" he said. "Oh" she said. "How was PT love?" Alex asked. "It was um" she said then looked up at me. "It was great" she said. "No it wasn't-" I tried to say but Ruby interrupted me by looking at me seriously. "Oops" I said while walking away. "Was it not good" Alex asked. "It was perfectly fine" she said. It was was not fine, what is she saying?! She was in so much pain, why does she lie and act like it wasn't hard?

*Narrator* Sorry I haven't continued it in so long, I have no motivation lol. Anyway bye LOVELIES!
