In chapter five of Lock and key Rubys sister, Cora, realized that Ruby didn't have any clothes to fit in at school. Cora gave Ruby $200 to go shopping and buy herself a new wardrobe. Ruby has never really had the chance or opprotunity to shop given her old situation. Ruby lived her old life just getting by on small amounts of cash and wearing clothes that she has had for most of her life. Ruby is so used to taking care of herself and surviving on her own that she isn't used to people just given her huge amounts of money and doesn't really know what to do. She was on her way to the mall and decides that she doesn't want to shop just yet but she wants to visit one of her friends from her old town. When she gets to her friends house she wants to talk to him about how Coras house isn't really her home and she how she feels like she doesn't belong, but instead she just makes small talk with him and tells him how she has to go shopping-something that she doesn't normally do. When Ruby got to the mall she didn't want to buy anything but knew she had to to please Cora so she bought two pairs of jeans, a sweater, a hoddie and five t-shirts. Ruby knew that these clothes wouldn't make her fit in but at least they would help.
I think that in that next few chapters Ruby will be surprised to find out that her new life isn't as bad as she thought it to be and that things will end up surprising her.
