Outside reading

In chapter two of lock and key Ruby tries to escape from her living situation. She lives with her sister, Cora and her sisters husband ,Jamie. Ruby does not get along with her sister that well because of things that happened in the past. Ruby feels like she doesn't really belong and fit in at Coras house because it is nice and clean and she has things that Ruby didnt even know existed.Ruby feels so out of place and alone that she just wants to get away from everything and live on her own. One night Ruby gathers up her belongings and tries to run away from her sisters house. Ruby only gets as far as the fence before Rubys sisters husband, Jamie, catches her. It's a fluke that he catches her because he was walking the dog and the dog hears her and then runs to her. She's returns to their house with Jamie, but she is still really upset. She still wants to run away from them, really away from the pain that she is in becasue her life has been so messed up for so long she doens't even know what it's like to live in a family. I'm excited to read the next chapter and find out what ruby will do next.
