I dusted my pajamas and walked slowly into our apartment, like a wounded kitten. I had a smile on my face because it was fun disappearing and reappearing without anyone noticing. I however hoped mom had not realized that I left the house.
Immediately I got into the living room, I realized that she hadn't, because she was still talking to Cameron, in their room. And no, not softly, like before. It seemed they were arguing about something now, and it was heating up already. Their door was still slightly open, that was why I knew, because if it were closed, I wouldn't hear a thing(it was soundproof). I put my ear on the keyhole and listened attentively.
"You know you can't do that to me, Ruby! We both don't have anyone besides ourselves!" He sounded both hurt and upset, but not as angry as it sounded from the outside. I relaxed a bit when I saw that mom had the upper hand. What were they talking about?
