Bab 57: Drama queen.

When the door suddenly opened, everyone looked at her, Ruth seemed disoriented and smelled of alcohol and cigarettes. Her hair was a mess and she was dressed in pajamas. It's like she had hit rock bottom.

"David, where is he?" she looked at her parents and brother as if she was looking through them. 

She rushed further down the staircase at a fast pace, practically running as if this was the most important race of her life. 

As she hurried down she almost missed a step which caused her to stumble but not even that stopped her.

"Watch your step Ruth, where are you running off to like a headless chicken?" He frowned, his eyebrows at the sight of her.
