Ruthie now sober started to unpack. She heard a knock at her door. When she opened the door, it was her brother Matt. "I need to talk to you. ", he said. Ruthie tried to shut the door, but Matt had put his foot in the door. "Listen I really need to talk to you." Ruthie finally gave up and let him in. "I'm sorry that I slapped you. I just got scared when I saw you smoking. I didn't want to see my baby sister growing up." "Matt I'm sorry that I pushed you, and by the way I'm quitting smoking. I haven't been smoking that long anyway. ", Ruthie said. Matt smiled and gave his sister and gave her a big hug and a kiss on the cheek. "I am so proud of you. ", Matt said. After Matt left she lit another cigarette. Right after she lit the cigarette someone was knocking on her door. Who that could be, I hope it isn't Matt again she thought.
