"John, wake up. I came with the key. John."
I woke up to see Ruth smiling down at me, tapping my leg.
"It's 2:00 am, stand up let's go inside," she continued.
"2:00 am and you came out here? Don't you think it's risky?" I said, still sounding very sleepy.
I rested my head back and the door again and slept as she was about to answer my question.
"John, wake up." She hit me harder on my shoulder and I was wide awake.
She helped me in standing up and walked me into the house. I found the nearest couch and laid down on it while she hurried into the kitchen to boil water for me to bathe with. When I was done having my bath, there was a cup of tea waiting for me to drink, and when I was done, I couldn't sleep anymore and same was the case for Ruth and I used that opportunity to ask her why she was back, and what made her think that I'd just accept her with open arms after everything she had done.
