sweetest life | ruby martinez

07.

ruby eventually opened up to me and i sat and listened. he's been through so much and i hate seeing him like this. he lights up a room everywhere he goes. seeing him crying and vulnerable is a sight no one wants to see. i decided to take him to one of my favorite ice cream parlors to take his mind off the stress.

i open the door and we walk in. all the different flavors coordinating each other like a rainbow. ruby's eyes lit up in awe. i smile knowing this was a great idea. we get in line and order what we want. i get to the cashier and pull out my cash but ruby beat me to it, grabs my hand and we walk out. i let his hand go with a pouty face.

"why you lookin at me like that you saw that coming." he laughs eating some of his ice cream. "this was supposed to me my treat to you, you've had such a hard time lately i wanted to do something nice for you." i whined. "aw baby, i love you so much but you ain't gotta do that, i appreciate it though." he smiles kissing my cheek.
