It's You

Ed lowered his cup, twirling his finger on the rim. He chose his words carefully, not wanting to admit his silly thoughts."I used to only like coffee. It was bitter, sour, and fragrant, and I thought it was enough. However, someone made tea for me. I wasn't interested, but I tried it, and it turned out—it wasn't bad. A calmer fragrance, a milder bitterness... I liked it too."After hearing all that explanation, Ruby couldn't understand why Ed would always mention tea while they were together."You... tea is you. You are like tea! That's why I chose tea leaves for that phone!" Ed finally explained the situation clearly, as Ruby was still unable to understand."Oh... Ooo... I see." Ruby nodded, wondering why Ed had to explain it in such a roundabout way. He could have just said it simply.Ruby's cheeks slowly turned red. That answer made her blush. The tea, which had been a mystery, turned out to be simple. However, it didn't leave a simple fe

Yes or No?

“I’m just asking. Am I not allowed to know? This is AJ's future," Ruby said, not unafraid of Ed's anger, but they needed to discuss this issue.“You are allowed, and you already know the answer. AJ will come with me. I have the right…”“Don’t I have the right? I am his mother.” Ruby did not want Ed to forget that she had bet her life for AJ.“I know. So what do you want? AJ is also my child. Do you want to deprive me of that right again? Do you want to keep him from returning? Am I not worthy to be with him?”Resistance without anger. What Ed said was roughly the same as what he had shouted the other rainy day—when Ed had driven Ruby away. But the tone was very different. There were no shouts or curses.While looking Ruby directly in the eyes, Ed stated the facts. Ed was not demanding, but asking for what was rightfully his. There was nothing wrong with either of them.The co

Is He My Father?

"How about you live in New York?" Ruby asked again. She was brave, as Ed had not shown any anger since earlier.There was laughter, but only for a moment. Ed fell silent after realizing Ruby was not joking."Oh, you're serious?" Ed thought Ruby was making a joke."Yes." Ruby knew the chance of Ed agreeing was only a fraction of a percent, but it was worth a try."You know who the Rosas are, right?" Ed wanted to make sure. If Ruby didn't understand, he would provide clarification."Yes. I know."Ruby knew why Ed was called ‘Don’ and not ‘Señor’ like the others. The title Don was very rarely used because it referred to nobility. The title was special because Ed had power that 'normal' people did not have."I can't leave them. They are my family. I have to be there."It was the exact answer Ruby had imagined, and she knew it would be nearly impossible to change. The Rosas family had been there for decades; she knew Ed's departure would not be simple."What makes you hesitate?" Ed asked.

You're My Father Right?

Ruby looked around. "Ed?" She panicked and sought help. Ruby had no idea what to say.“I’ll call Don Rosas if you need him.” Otiz quickly suggested.“YES! Yes, now!” Ruby didn’t even try to answer AJ. She avoided his gaze.“Mommy…”“We'll find him. Beast… I mean… he… We will find him.”Ruby was completely distraught and could only stammer as she continued walking, holding AJ's hand. She followed Otiz, who finally found Ed.“He's over there.” The entrance was near a museum corner, which Otiz pointed to.Ed was talking to someone, making Ruby blink twice. She could only see the profile, but she knew that the man's handsomeness was above average. His eyes were so blue, they looked artificial.“Who…”Otiz shook his head with an apologetic smile. “I can’t tell you that.”Ruby didn’t press further, but she understood that Ed was likely handling something related to his work.Ruby reached for AJ's hand again, but AJ pulled away.“Let's call Beast.” AJ ran off.“Wait!” Ruby chased after him,

Yes, That's Right

"Really!" Otiz shook his head convincingly.Ed clicked his tongue and glanced at Ruby, who was already pale. It was clear that Ruby had no idea how to respond. Ed himself didn't know how to explain, but he didn't avoid the situation.Ed gently pulled AJ aside so he wasn't blocking the way, then squatted down in front of him."When did you hear this?" Ed asked."Yesterday. Tita was talking to Otiz." AJ pointed with full certainty.Ed glanced again, and this time Otiz looked down in regret. He remembered now. He had indeed chatted with Tita, but he didn't expect AJ to understand and overhear. They were quite a distance away, and the conversation should have been too complicated for AJ to follow."Let's go to the triceratops section first." Ed held AJ's hand, trying to divert his attention. He hoped that AJ would forget later."What did you say?" As she followed Otiz, Ruby hissed."Tita asked if you two were going to get back toge

Why Now?

Ed heard the door open and saw Ruby coming out of AJ's room. Ruby usually put AJ to bed, said goodnight, read stories, and other things. But she had never stayed for hours like tonight."AJ couldn't sleep?" Ed asked, putting down his drink.Ruby just sighed and sat on the floor near the low table Ed used for his drink, leaning against it."AJ was asking a lot of tough questions," Ruby muttered."Here." Ed handed her another glass filled with wine. Ruby looked like she needed it."I'm not sure this is a good idea." Ruby accepted the glass anyway. It had been a long time since she drank alcohol. But maybe she needed it now. Her neck felt stiff from the day's tension."I'm not sure this is a good idea either." Ed repeated. He had only started drinking wine recently, so his tolerance for alcohol might have changed.Previously, Ed had avoided it because he knew that mixing Diego's medication with alcohol was fatal. After his wedding day, E

I've Tried To Hate You

“RUBY!” Ed shouted as he burst through the already-open wooden gate.It was obvious Ruby had left, but where did she go? The area around the house was calm but not deserted. There were several visitors walking around, enjoying the lake at night. Ruby could have met anyone.Ed ran toward the crowd, hoping Ruby was drawn to the same thing. At the end of the road, there was a fountain that attracted visitors with its lights and myths. It was like a cheap version of the Trevi Fountain in Italy. Many visitors threw coins and made wishes.“Oh, thank goodness.” Ed sighed in relief when he saw Ruby standing in front of the fountain. Fortunately, she hadn’t gone too far.“Ruby… Don’t!” Ed shouted in panic as he saw Ruby suddenly step into the pool. Some people there also tried to stop her, but Ruby resisted.“I want to take that! It’s shining! It’s beautiful!” Ruby pointed to the pool. Visitors' coins reflected the lights that illuminated the pool.“Ruby! I’m sorry.” Ed grabbed Ruby’s wet body

Not Five But Three

"Ughh..." As her head throbbed with pain, Ruby's groaning was long and wide. It felt like someone had repeatedly hit it with a hammer."It hurts..." Ruby groaned, trying to sit up."Watch!" Ruby raised her hand to check her wrist watch. She wanted to know if she was late or not. But there was nothing on her wrist."Huh?" Ruby stroked her empty arm, then glanced at the table next to the bed. Her watch wasn't there either.Ruby frowned, trying to recall what had happened. She usually never strayed far from that watch because she needed to know the time."Wine." Ruby remembered drinking wine in the front room with Ed. She'd search for it in the front room."Watch... watch..." Ruby mumbled, groping her body."Oh?" Another oddity. Ruby was only in her underwear. She didn't remember when she had taken off the knee-length dress she wore yesterday, but maybe before bed. Ruby shrugged."Watch..." Ruby continued to sense her surroundings, hissing as she struggled with the headache. She was sear

Of Course

"WOW! A boat!" AJ ran when he saw what Ed had surprised him with.A medium-sized white yacht with cream-colored sails unfurled. Of course, AJ immediately forgot any feelings that were bothering him.He approached Ed, who was waiting beside the sailboat."Is this yours?" AJ asked."No, I rented it. But if you like it, I'll buy it," Ed said. He had never felt the need to own a yacht, so he had never wanted to buy one."I love it!" AJ eagerly accepted the generous offer."No need if you're only going to use it occasionally," Ruby interjected, not about to allow such an extravagant request."But... but..." AJ started to pout. Ruby's rejection made him reluctantly step onto the gangplank connecting the dock to the boat.Ed glanced at Ruby, signaling that she would agree with his eyes."Expensive," Ruby whispered as she passed Ed. She was quite unaccustomed to fulfilling AJ's costly requests."It won't be wasted. We can use it in Puerto Vallarta," Ed reminded her, pointing out that his hous

A Life That You Wish

“Ew! Mommy! Yucky!” AJ pointed while laughing. Ruby's messy face was very amusing to him.“Hm?” Ruby hadn't noticed, so she turned to look at AJ.“This.” Ed finally moved, wiping Ruby’s face with the napkin in his hand.Ruby’s attention returned to Ed. But she just stared blankly as Ed cleaned up the mess on her face.“Done?” Ed asked AJ, not Ruby, if her face was clean again. He knew from her vacant stare that Ruby's mind wasn't functioning normally.“Done.” AJ nodded in agreement after looking at Ruby. Although Ruby's complexion remained somewhat red, it had become clean.“Are you ready? We’re going fishing now,” Ed said.“YEAH!” AJ jumped off the chair again. The fishing part had really caught his interest earlier.AJ grabbed Ed’s hand, pulling him down. Ruby couldn’t even follow. She just watched as they both disappeared from view.Ruby briefly touched her face. Her nose and cheeks were red, not only from coughing and stinging, but also from embarrassment and confusion.***“Tita…
