ALVAH'S POV.
" He trusts himself around you??? Who even says that!!" I exclaimed at Ruby's frustration. She'd come to me with the pieces of her bleeding heart in her hands to make all my interactions with her officially fail the Bechdel test. Which is also known as me being officially crowned her best friend.
At first, I was bad at it. She rambled a lot, snorted a lot, sneered, and cursed a lot at Max. Oh, the passion and the choice of words when she describe how much she hated him when I could see how worked up she was. I caught on later, all I needed to do was repeat her opening statement back to her but exclaim while at it and that would make her feel like she wasn't talking to a cardboard cut out. Although I feel like a cardboard cut-out would have been more empathetic in her situation.
