Shattered Happiness

Chapter 8 : A good day

'Ruth ! You poor girl , go and bring my gown! , I have to look elegant to meet him ' . Ruth precipitated , brought her long silky red gown , and placed in on Aliza's bed .
Her step sister and mother could see some different changes in her manners , they knew every morning while she came down they could her cheeks wet with tears but today our dear Ruth was smiling and cherish , they knew something happened , but they were too busy with all these preparations for the most awaited ballroom .
Ruth knew she was not invited , but she didn't mind , she knew she'd never put her feet and dance with someone in the ballroom but she didn't regret it , she always see things however they come, and keeps on thinking in whatever form they come they come for the best .

She was beatific and delightful , and she thought of a new plan , how she can live better , it was time to live a new and better life she said to herself , she cannot stay in the dark anymore , she needs space , she needs to adjustment . She remembered from where she came when it was dawn in her morning , Noah , fill her heart with strength , so she decided when Stella and Aliza will leave the house for the ballroom , she would decorate the house with all her mother's choice .

She dressed Aliza , and comb her hair , doing a doughnut bun on her hair , and they both left for the ballroom and now she was alone at home , she went in room , which was closed since Stella came into this house , this room contained all her mother's furniture which Stella had seized as she owns the house , she decided to decorate and adorn the house with everything from her mother's choice , she rolled in her blue dress , she went into the garden and picked up some magnolias to adorn and magnify the house , the house needs to be illuminated now , she swept the whole living room , and placed the beautiful magnolias in a large porcelain vase .

She installed her mother's furniture in the living room , and decorated the room with her canvas that she made , her mother dear Sapphira , had a great love for art , she had made lots of canvas which was then closed , but Ruth took it all out and adorn the living room , in every dark corners she lit it up with her beautiful smile and happiness .

She then sat in the middle on the living room , and felt so happy , but began to think about Stella's reaction when she'll see this change , she'll be furious as hell , but she kept on thinking it was high time to rule over the house herself yes she'll be kind but was her house first not Stella's and Aliza's .
She wants her father to understand her grief , which he never did .

She got up , smiled at her mother's canvas and said ... ' mum I'm on the right track , it was a good day hope it will be forever ' .
