Ruth has a past, like all children who grow up in the mafia. Perhaps this is what makes them so similar; the neglect, the abuse, it's what intertwines their souls. It's the reason Angelo is drawn to Ruth. You could even say it's the reason he's obsessed. It's easy to confuse love and obsession. Both start off tantalizingly slow. They creep into your mind when you're least expecting it. Sometimes they can go undetected, sometimes they dig so deep into your skin you have no choice but to fade away in the irreversible decision to love someone, to obsess over someone, to make your mark on someone. Once you get a taste, you'll never be able to stop. --------- Started: December of 2020. #1 in boy trouble #1 in good writing #3 in murder #6 in YA
