"You want me to set up a bank account?" Ash asked tiredly as soon as he woke up.
Ruby was in a good mood so she fluttered back and forth in front of him excitedly. "Yeah! You need somewhere to stick all the money I made for you today! Do you want to know how much? Do you? Do you? It's a lot; you'll be impressed!"
Her enthusiasm seemed to wake him up more fully. He smiled and said, "Sure. Tell me."
"$1.2 million, baby! Am I amazing or am I amazing?" she preened. "How much do you need, anyway? You never said."
Ash didn't seem as surprised as she thought he would. "That's great. Thanks, Ruby. And honestly…I'm not sure."
Ruby gaped at him. How could he not be sure?! Did he have any sort of plan for this money at all or was he winging it? She needed to know how much he needed so she could fulfill their deal and go their separate ways.
