Mikhail turned his head to find the source of the familiar voice, and a feeling of warmth spread out from his chest when his eyes met her own.
"Oh, hey Ruby. What took you so long?"
Ruby…
Her face was just as beautiful as he remembered it.
Well-defined cheekbones. A firm yet well rounded jawline. Her petite nose and her lovely pink lips, curved upwards into a small smile. Her emerald green eyes and the way the sun reflected off them like true gemstones. The thin eyebrows that sat above those eyes, complimenting them with their simple curve and small width.
The sporadic freckles on her face.
Her crimson hair, framing it all perfectly. Reflecting the sun with an almost metallic sheen.
"Huh? Sweety, what's wrong?" she asked in a delicate tone, reaching over to his face.
"Wha-..."
Mikhail realized that a tear had streamed down his face.
"That's weird… Must be the allergies."
