Lock and Key: Post 2

Ruby's life has completely changed from  not having much to being to have whatever. You would think she would take advantage of this, but you're wrong. With all the new luxuries and money her sister has showered her with, willingly or unwillingly, Ruby still yearns for her old life back. 

With every new step into this new world her sister is welcoming her into, she takes a step back by retrieving small parts of her old life. For example, when her sister gives here 200$ to go shopping with she goes to Marshall, an old friend with benefits, house instead. Spending this time with her closer friends gives her more faith in getting her old life back, getting her mother back. 

The fact that Ruby's mother left her is something that she cannot accept and I believe that by her rejecting what her sister tries to do for her, she is trying to recreate the relationship she had with her mother. Soon enough she will have to realize that her mother is really gone.

 But when she does what will happen? Will she be able to hold herself together? Will she be the source of her own destruction without even knowing that she is the only one holding on?
