FLASHBACK
"Hi"
"Hi!"
Moody suddenly appeared in front of Ruby. Ruby remembered that memory
They always noticed each other, but their eyes were looking at someone else. Moody admires Diana, and Ruby fantasizes about Gilbert, to the point where all she wants to talk about when she opens her mouth is Gilbert. Who has her eyes on Anne, and Diana who has a thing for Jerry.

"Give it back! To me!!" Josie-
"What's the matter? You guys are so loud" Anne-
"I saw a letter!" Jane lifted it into the air
"What the..." Josie would have stopped
"-Which Josie was reading. Her and Moody are together. Where... She did NOT even tell to us." Jane-
Someone stopped from what she was doing, Ruby was dumbfounded for a moment, the others were shocked.
"Is this true? Josie..." Anne-
Josie was looking at Ruby, her eyes formed to sadness, ready to cry "I am... sorry... Ruby-"
"There's no need." When Ruby interrupted, she laughed modestly and weakly "What are you guys up on..." The others were already looking at her "That was a long time ago... If-" She stopped, they were waiting for what she was going to say "If you will be happy. You will be happy so am I for you!" She said happily to Josie
Josie couldn't hold back her sobs, and rushed to hug her friend "Thank you... oh... Thank you, Ruby, thank you!"
Jane was in agony, she was angry that Josie kept a secret, and even with them, she took the paper down from the air. Anne is divided in sympathy, but she knows that Josie is wrong about the part that she hid about her and Moody from them, which is her OWN best friends who are also friends with Moody. Moody! Ruby's ex-boyfriend. Ruby once wanted to marry. Who wasn't nearly as noticeable in grade school days. Tillie didn't know what to say to be honest, she was also thinking about other problems about their upcoming exams.
"I'm getting married too!" Ruby said happily and excitedly
They were all shocked, they knew SOMEONE had been courting on Ruby and her boyfriend two months ago, but this was unexpected because they had only known the young man she was going to marry for two months!?
"WHAT?" Anne, Jane and the others exchanged looks.
Diana was not in the dormitory that day
"We'll talk later. This moment is not about me."
*****
Anne knocked, "Come in! That's open" Ruby answered, doing something in the room, moving things on the bed
Anne slowly opened the door "Ruby..."
"Anne! Why?" Anne finally sat next to Ruby, she stopped folding her clothes
Anne held her hands, she was too sensitive to Ruby, knowing that she couldn't stop her true emotions, and her emotions are too affected when she feels something.
"Are you alright?" Ruby sighed as she turned to the other direction "-really alright?"
"Why not be? Yes, Anne. I'm definitely fine."
"Are you sure you're getting married? So early isn't it?! Before you two just met-"
"I have found the one for me. The true love."
"Isn't Moody the one for you? Your true love" Ruby frowned "I know... It's different now - he and Josie. But you said then-"
"We were young then." Ruby interrupted, Anne, looking worried
"Ruby, are you sure you're okay? About them I didn't really - expect." Anne looked down at the thought
"Yes. What are you - don't worry about it." She looked back into Ruby's eyes
"Moody is supposed to be visiting." Anne informed
Ruby was stunned for a moment, but immediately smiled "Good! Josie must sure to be ready and I know she is excited. I can't blame her, Moody is really nice," Ruby smiled as if she really liked the idea that Josie and Moody were really good for each other "Josie now are liking a guy after-" She remembered about Andrews and Billy, he didn't continue, Anne understood that "Also, Josie is not difficult to love. Maybe she really likes or loves him"
"Oh.. Dear Ruby" Anne hugged her.
*****
Dear Ruby.
You are so beautiful, like your name, like a flower, and your personality. In fact, it was impossible for you to notice me and I knew that all along.
Thank you, you are being honest to me, you loved me and I felt it. You accepted me from what I am. I love you, I love you so much. I really do. You know?
I couldn't believe you were mine, once. Once Ruby. My beloved, but.
I want to say let's stop this. I'm not happy anymore, I mean. We can't be anymore, I can't explain exactly how I really feel about, I just don't want to hurt you. It won't work. Forget me Ruby. And you will find the right one for you.
Once yours, Moody.
Ruby wiped a tear that escaped in her eye. When she reread a few letters, among the many of them that was the only thing that stuck in her mind
It's still there heartaches and pain. "What's your problem, Ruby! Stop it. Don't fool yourself. He will never come back to you. But... I can't deceive anymore... nor full myself more. I still love you"
