Ruby Gregory carefully felt her belly, responding to Steve Burton's question, "No."
Fearing that Steve wouldn't believe her, Ruby said again, "Really, there isn't."
Steve continued to give Ruby a few more reminders before hanging up.

The Sapphire Bistro wasn't far from the mall where Ruby was. When Steve said he'd arrive in two minutes, he actually only took fifteen to reach the mall.
Steve didn't even bother to find a parking spot, randomly parking on the side of the road before quickly running into the mall and heading straight to the third floor.
Steve frantically searched the third floor and then saw Ruby standing at the entrance of a Japanese clothing store diagonally across the floor.
Steve hesitated for a moment, then quickly walked towards her. He was moving so fast that he almost collided with someone on the way, not even having time to stop, offering a hurried "Sorry" as he ran towards Ruby.
