Ruth was getting ready for work in the morning. She was not particularly excited to go back to that place and face the judging eyes. But, she was not hopeless either.
She could not sit all her life behind the walls of her home and avoid facing the world. She had realised that it was a way for the cowards... people who do not believe in themselves.
Ruth's mother- Bertha- had always taught her to believe herself than anything else.
'If you believe in yourself and are willing to move towards a greater goal then there is no one and nothing that could stop you from achieving it.' Bertha used to say.
Yet Ruth was silent since she woke up. And, the reason was that book- 'Fatal Love'.
After Mrs Payne's suggestion, she began reading the book at last. Ruth did not know if she was a fan of romantic stories and, this book would provide her with the answer.
