Recap:
"Hello"
"Ruthie its Mac we have to talk…"
What is perfect? Chapter Four
Moving
"Ruthie, I am moving."
"What, But Why?" Ruthie was confused.
"I got a scholarship to play football in Miami." Mac said. "My dream"
Ruthie was silent. "Oh c'mon Ruth, ill come home to visit"
Ruthie hung up the phone and switched it off.
She didn't want to talk to anyone; Mac had just ruined her mood. She still loved Mac, not the way she loved Martin, but she loved Mac like a brother. And now he was moving all the way across the country.
Ruthie changed and lay down in her bed. She cried her self to sleep.

Poof
It was almost seven she had to get ready for church. She was too upset to think of what to wear this time. She threw on slacks and a white blouse and ran down stairs.
"Hey Ruthie" Martin was in the kitchen. Ruthie was still upset so she just smiled at him.
"Mom," Ruthie called to her mother, "Can I talk to you on the way to church"
"Sure honey" Annie replied. Dad can take his car and the boys and you and I can use my car" Annie smiled at her daughter. "Thanks mom" Ruthie said.
On the way to church
"So Ruthie, what did you want to talk to me about?" Annie asked Ruthie.
Ruthie told her mother everything from the time she was getting ready for her date the night before to the phone call she received from Mac late at night.
"You kissed Martin!" Annie exclaimed.
"Mom!"
"Sorry" Annie said. "We knew you would one day be together."
"How long have you known that Aaron was Simon's son?" Ruthie asked her mother.
"For about a month or so" Annie replied.
"And you couldn't tell me!"
"We thought that you would rather hear it from Martin" Annie said. "Are you still in love with him?"
Annie said as they got out of the car.
Ruthie shut the car door. "Of course I still love him"
Annie stared straight towards Ruthie. "Mom, What is it." Ruthie turned around to see Mac standing behind her.
